  • Things To Avoid When TIG Welding Root Pass !
    What is a root pass in TIG welding?
    Root passes use weld filler material to close the root space between the weld faces. Follow tips regarding shielding gas, welding preparation, and weld techniques to make TIG welding your root pass successful. The video gives viewers good insights into placing excellent and solid root passes. You will get to learn about different technical paths that you can explore. With the appropriate training and practice on the operator's part, learning to place the root can become an invaluable skill!

    None of these videos are recorded in a fancy shop surrounded by sponsorship banners!
    My videos are recorded at working sites in various locations and welding positions.
    90% of my welding projects in videos are x-rayed, and if you like to see hands-on projects, welcome!

    Hello gentlemen, In pass on,or root pass all your attentions were accurate, from the presence of tungsten and the necessary amount that should be outside of the ceramic, as well as the size of the tube gap to have good penetration to take X-rays, thank you for your accuracy.

    I have found that one wants enough current to “wake up” the tungsten. Up to 70-80 amps wants a 1/16 tungsten. 100+ desires a 3/32 or so.
    I’ve yet to go much over a hundred, as access to 220 is difficult for me.

    Pozdrav iz Srbije! Prenosis sustinske stvari u zavarivanju,svaka cast! Mozes li mi reci molim te koliko zatupis ivicu korena? I da li je moguce da ima toliko odstupanja u odnosima amperaza,razlike medju aparatima? Jer 130A na kempiju zvuci previse za koren i imam osecaj da bih progoreo materijal prebrzo.Oprosti na poduzem pitanju.Hvala ti na odgovoru i svako dobro zelim!

    • @X3MTIG
      @X3MTIG  Před rokem +1

      Pozdrav,
      Za zatupljivanje ivice korijena sve zavisi od materijala kojeg se vari. Generalno, osobno volim, noz na crnim cijevima, a kod inoxa oko 1 do 1 1/2 mm, cisto iz prevencije “ internal undercut “ . Dali ima razlike u masinama ? Ima, naravno i meni se cak nekad desi da koristim istu masinu u elektrani i rafineriji i ima razlike u napajanju. Ovdje su uglavnom Miller i Lincoln, odlicne masine, pogotovo na diesel, ali mislim da Kempi je vise specijaliziran za Tig i sadrzi kvalitetnije komponente, tako da je sigurno razlika u amperima. Hvala ti na komentaru i svako dobro!
