- Опубликовано: 16 май 2024
- When it comes down to how to tig weld aluminum , this is hands down the most comprehensive lesson plan I've put together for RUclips, basically a PLANNED and mapped out strategy that will cover a 3 HOUR PLAN that will take you from understanding your machine, to welding your first joint. Let's go!

I want to thank you brother. Been welding for the past 15 years. I got a new job that required me to learn aluminum a few years back. Your videos has helped me so much man. I’m stacking dimes now. I appreciate the help!
I graduated HSWT (Hobart) in 1990, had numerous bench TIG jobs building motorcycle frames and swingarms as well as hot rod fab in central California. I watched your video with some hesitation as there's a ton of how-to-TIG videos by guys who shouldn't be teaching at all- and you're absolutely right: you need the proper foundation, theory and fundamentals. Now, 34 years later and a couple of successful businesses under my belt, I want to dedicate the time on this very perishable skill. Your theory, technique and teaching style are SOLID. I look forward to taking your classes. No matter one's experience, it is a perishable skill and you're the best I've seen. I wish you the best success, and thank you for what you're doing!
I watch for a bit then run out to welder and check my settings then run back and watch some more. Its like a physical fitness program. Back and forth. LOL
😂
my tv has been temporarily moved to the garage lmao
Dusty your just awesome with how you explain the process. I like how I've learned all the variables that welding aluminum requires you to understand. I've watched every one of your videos. Especially when machine shops seen how I wrapped my corners on plate coupons that I dropped off to show what I can offer. They were impressed
Can't wait for the kids to hit the bed. Watching this in the garage 😊
Dusty, you are a great teacher! I can't wait to scratch together enough cash to buy my first Tig machine and take your classes.
Brian! I really appreciate this message my friend, I'm happy that you enjoy the style of my lessons, and I would be thrilled to help however I can when you get your own machine! Great to hear from you my friend, have a great weekend!🔥🙂
@@PacificArcTigWelding i agree on him with that comment. I understand a whole lot from watching and listening to you, it's just to get my own machine to follow along with you now.
Keep up the good work man. Love from Jamaica 🇯🇲❤
Great video dusty, I'm looking forward to putting your advice into practice 👍
I love the checkpoint thing! As a motorcycle builder, I get asked for tips all the time and all I can really say is "well, try to build it how you want, and if it sucks, do it again until it's good". Your checkpoint thing is a much more articulate and friendly way of putting that lol.
Yure the best tig channel on RUclips thank you for this it will help me at my apprentice job I want to tig together a fence post so bad but butt joints scare me
Wow, all the informations you gave are very clear, as a student I really need this kind of video. Tqsm!!
THANK YOU for all you are trying doing for me and the other subs' viewers to start and improve our skills
Great job 👍✨
Great content. I am currently tasked with fabricating aluminum handrails for pools. Lots of angles to weld together while keeping all pieces aligned in the same plane. I enjoy any video lesson involving aluminum pipe. 😂
You must grind off the anodize coating or it will not weld. I'd like your ideas on the subject. I used to TIG weld aluminum railings on boats.
спасибо за ваши пояснения по ТИГ сварке , очень познавательно , много чего для себя лично подчерпнул с ваших уроков , ещё раз Спасибо Вам огромное за ваш труд
Lab la lab.
Thank you for sharing, fantastic tutorial! 💯
Great Instructional Video !! 💯
Thank you!
very instructive will be looking to take up your welding class
Wow 😬😁👍👍 Thanks
I think thats the vid i need to watch, i will start soon with my first ACDC machine and the video is in perfect timing 4 me. Thx
Dusty, you kick ass ! very informative and yes, I'm gonna take your pd class, it's worth it.
Thanks!
Thanks ❤
really perfect 👍👍
Thank you
This video is so nice,maybe our welding machine to make it will more easily
Good
Easter egg here, boots are made in tassie Australia arnt they 🙌🙌
Great videos and i can tig weld but a greater understanding is priceless. What thickness Ally are you using in this video? Thanks
Merci Dusty
Thanks so much for checking this one out! All the best and have a great weekend!🔥🔥
Nice 👍👍
Thanks so much! Great to hear from you, happy Friday!
Technically you can tig weld aluminum with DC current. I think its straight polarity I cant recall, but you burn up the tungsten consumable really fast. I've done it while experimenting.
That's the original TIG process for aluminum, before they invented AC machines. Use DC straight polarity with 2% percent sharpened tungsten, using Helium. The same setup for steel. It's used to weld small brackets on medium to heavy aluminum plate, such as one to two inch plate. It makes a good weld but it will have a black soot on it. You then use a stainless wire brush to remove it. It does not affect the tungsten and I was using the old transformer machines.
@@georgebuck2269 Actually No. I used Argon and there was No soot. It was a clean weld. Your thinking of something different.
I have a Everlast 325 and it sure as heck does not have that smooth of arc 😂
Show us how to backup a TIG weld in aluminum, that's where they use a slot in the backup steel so the aluminum weld sinks into it. All metals are TIG weldable except zinc which is the plating used on galvanized steel. The short list: steel, aluminum, stainless, copper, brass and titanium. And you can only use Argon or a mix of Argon/Helium for TIG welding. Argon/CO2 is only for MIG.
My only problem when tig welding is feeding the wire, any tips?
Are you able to weld brass ?
Do you run ac or dc on brass ? And what rod would be the best?
DC is the setup for all metals except aluminum. Most shops cut the filler rod from a sheet of thin brass. All metals are TIG weldable except zinc which is the plating used on galvanized steel. The short list: steel, aluminum, stainless, copper, brass and titanium. And you can only use Argon or a mix of Argon/Helium for TIG welding. Argon/CO2 is only used for MIG.
Did you clean the aluminum before welding?
Aluminum is the only common metal that has to be free of all oil, grease, paint, gum from labels and any anodize coating. When you file, grind or use a carbide burr, you also remove the oxide layer which lowers the melt temperature. Most welders also clean it with acetone. Most medium to large welding shops that do military spec aluminum welding have chemical tanks to etch or clean the aluminum in.
Are you left handed?
I have a strange question sir
You should make video for those people too that don't have access to foot pedal. How do we control the heat input then?

Too bad this came out after I screwed up my aluminum project.
Thank you!
