MIG/MAG shielding gases

Argon (Ar):

higher density than air; low thermal conductivity the arc has a high energy inner cone; good wetting at the toes; low ionisation potential

Helium (He):

lower density than air; high thermal conductivity uniformly distributed arc energy; parabolic profile; high ionisation potential

Carbon Dioxide (CO2):

cheap; deep penetration profile; cannot support spray transfer; poor wetting; high spatter

MIG/MAG shielding gasesGases for Short-Circuiting transfer:

• CO2: carbon steels only: deep penetration; fast welding speed; high spatter levels

• Ar + up to 25% CO2: carbon and low alloy steels: minimum spatter; good wetting and bead contour

• 90% He + 7.5% Ar + 2.5% CO2:stainless steels: minimises undercut; small HAZ

• Ar: Al, Mg, Cu, Ni and their alloys on thin sections

• Ar + He mixtures: Al, Mg, Cu, Ni and their alloys on thicker sections (over 3 mm)

MIG/MAG shielding gasesGases for spray transfer

• Ar + (5-18)% CO2: carbon steels: minimum spatter; good wetting and bead contour

• Ar + 2% O2: low alloy steels: minimise undercut; provides good toughness

• Ar + 2% O2 or CO2: stainless steels: improved arc stability; provides good fusion

• Ar: Al, Mg, Cu, Ni, Ti and their alloys

• Ar + He mixtures: Al, Cu, Ni and their alloys: hotter arc than pure Ar to offset heat dissipation

• Ar + (25-30)% N2: Cu alloys: greater heat input

Gas Metal Arc WeldingTypes of Shielding Gas

MAG (Metal Active Gas)

• Active gases used are Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide

• Argon with a small % of active gas is required for all steels (including stainless steels) to ensure a stable arc & good droplet wetting into the weld pool

• Typical active gases are

Ar + 20% CO2 for C-Mn & low alloy steels

Ar + 2% O2 for stainless steels

100% CO2 can be used for C - steels

Tungsten electrodes

The electrode diameter, type and vertex angle are all critical factors

considered as essential variables. The vertex angle is as shown

Vetex angle

Note: when welding

aluminium with AC current,

the tungsten end is

chamfered and forms a ball

end when welding

Note: too fine an angle will

promote melting of the

TIG Welding ConsumablesWelding consumables for TIG:

• Filler wires, Shielding gases, tungsten electrodes

(non-consumable).

• Filler wires of different materials composition and

variable diameters available in standard lengths,

with applicable code stamped for identification

• Steel Filler wires of very high quality, with copper

coating to resist corrosion.

• shielding gases mainly Argon and Helium, usually

of highest purity (99.9%).

Welding rods:

•supplied in cardboard/plastic tubes

•must be kept clean and free from oil and dust

•might require degreasing

Shielding gases for TIG weldingArgon

• low cost and greater availability

Helium

• costly and lower availability than Argon

• lighter than air - requires a higher flow rate compared with argon (2-3 times)

Nitrogen

• not an inert gas

• high availability - cheap

• added to argon (up to 5%) - only for back purge for duplex stainless, austenitic stainless steels and copper alloys

• not used for mild steels (age embritlement)

Shielding gases for TIG welding

Hydrogen

• not an inert gas - not used as a primary shielding gas

• increase the heat input - faster travel speed and increased penetration

• better wetting action - improved bead profile

• produce a cleaner weld bead surface

• added to argon (up to 5%) - only for austenitic stainless steels and nickel alloys

• flammable and explosive
