Gas Tungsten Arc Welding

Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW), more commonly known as Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding, is a precise welding process used to create clean, high-quality joints.

This method uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode to fuse metals together, while an inert shielding gas—typically argon—protects the weld area from contamination. The result is a smooth, strong, and visually refined finish.

TIG welding requires a higher level of skill, as the welder must manually feed filler material into the weld pool. However, this technique offers greater control and precision compared to MIG or standard ARC welding.

While it is generally a slower process, TIG welding is ideal for applications where accuracy, strength, and appearance are critical.
