GTAW – Aluminum Pipe – Module ID 29403-16

$20.00

Module Four (29403-16) provides insight into welding aluminum pipe using the GTAW process and the modified U-groove joint, which does not require a metal backing or a backing gas. The GTAW process is unique since the welder must add the filler metal using the opposite hand. The process is well suited for welding aluminum, using the freehand or walking-the-cup technique. One thing welders must understand about welding aluminum is that a significant amount of welding current is required, especially when working with thick materials.
