C02 VS C25 Gas for MIG Welding on a Budget Harbor Freight Titanium 140 Welder
มุมมอง 2.9K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Titanium MIG 140 Welder: amzn.to/3yVxciA In this video, I am going to compare 75 25 argon C02 gas vs straight C02 gas for MIG welding. I have always used C02 but I wanted to make sure that I was correct in assuming that it was pretty much just as good as C25 gas. The cost of C02 is about 1/3 the cost of C25 and I don't think that C25 is worth the extra cost.

Bro love your shop a real man’s cave great video good job with on the detail
Tham that was amazing 🤩
Thank you we have done some fun projects I need to get more videos out
For me, there is a huge difference in cost for the tanks. A have an aluminum c02 tank for 'beverages', and it only needs to handle like 900psi, where an argon tank needs the big heavy steel tanks for 3000psi. Someone stole all my welding gear, so usually always used c25, but buying a new tank is toooo much. In fact, I'm just using flux core now, but will get the c02 setup going soon.
@murraymadness4674 damn I am sorry. Any one that steels tools is the lowest of lows. Good luck. And the co2 can run the kegerator when not being used for welding hahahah
@@jensendesign4920 thanks, they stole my all my ryobi tools in a previous breakin. I moved out of there, far away from the city now. I also bought a cheap 140a 120vac mig on amazon that works ok, I have a 40amp 120vac circuit for it. It was a discounted return, and then it had a missing spool and broken handle, so amazon just let me keep it and refunded me. So that worked out when your broke!
So far this was the best information I have gotten on helmets thanks
@@tonystites2134 thank you. getting ready to do a couple more
I have the Yeswelder hood. It doesn’t stay up good. It does fit glasses ok. I’m a recent hobby welder who is married, so I have to be careful on the money.
@douggolde7582 there are knobs on the side you can tighten and that might help with the hood staying up
It claims to need a 50 amp input but only looks like a 15 amp rated plug what were you giving it for amperage? Just ordered this and trying to figure out what it needs. Looking forward to learning.
@micahinmaine we were running it on a 20 amp breaker and had no issues. I had the machine turned all the way up. (Which is pre set when you puck wire size)
Thank you for this video. By the way, all of the little issues you ran into were because you didn't read the paperwork that came with it (I too am usually guilty of that). The reason the voltage only went up to 3.0 is because that is just an offset tweak setting. When you select the gauge of the wire and your wire speed, it automatically sets the voltage for the best weld. You then can change the parameters to fine tune the voltage up or down by up to 3 volts from the preset voltage. The problem you had with the tip was that you are supposed to remove the nozzle and tip when you are initially feeding the wire through the guide sleeve to the gun, then reinstall the tip and nozzle.
@SlayingU directions hahahahahahaha that makes it to easy. But you are right
3 months later, how’s the trailer hitch holding up man?
@CameronFrazier-w7n good my buddy uses it every day I saw it yesterday and looked for cracks, and all is well.
Easy to tell you went into this video already against the welder and lookign for any and all flaws you could think of. Ontop of that pushing instead of pulling with flux core which will always give issues. Hell im not even a welder and know this stuff.
@konvictedkustomz9687 wow thanks for the help. At the end of the video I give my final thoughts and was surprised by the results and happy with the welder
I can personally say that yes working in a welding shop you go through helmets like crazy if you don’t buy good quality ones worked there Maby a year and went through two hoods on my third one and it’s a weldco hood if this one does hold up super well I will consider the esabs
First time welding bought this machine do i need to buy a grounding cable or does it come with the welder
@@MicHtht it comes with it. Good luck
Apologies first time welder here! I have done everything properly in terms of set up for flux welding (.30 wire feed went without a hitch, flux digital setting is correct, spooling went smooth, I took off the nozzle screw top under recommendation, etc). But once through the end nozzle I'm just not getting a spark to kick off the Flux Core spark(??). I'm running off of a 120V socket (but did see one video that said that I should run it off of at least an 800 Amp Generator to generate the proper spark). I've connected the plug-ins properly and have it grounded to spec. Am I missing something? My first project is simply welding a lawn mower deck spindle part (dirty metal) back onto its base but I'm flummoxed. This should be pretty much be an A-B-C job, right? What am I missing? Thanks!
@musingmyself2death is the wire spooling and you aren't getting an arc. If this is the case I would look at the groun and make sure the clamp is connected to clean metal. That is where I would start.
@@jensendesign4920 thanks! I figured it out today. Created a new ground and found a higher amperage outlet and whattaya know! Spark achieved and off to my first successful weld. Appreciate your feedback!
@@musingmyself2death sweet good job
Dont go cheap on hoods ever. Period. You only get one set of eyes. Pay the top dollar and get the best of the best.
Hey Dale Thanks for posting this video on your Millermatic 200. As a professional welder have you done any aluminum welding with this Millermatic 200? Have you done any videos on the set up the spool gun and (I'm making an assumption here) WC-24 or WC-115? I'd love to see a video of you using this to do aluminum welding. Thanks
@johnmccarthy6451 the millermatic 200 (as far as I know) won't run a spool gun. I have a millermatic 220 that will run one. It runs realy good and isn't that big of a deal to set up. That would be a good video, thanks for the idea
@@jensendesign4920 Dale I believe later model Millermatic 200 welders do actually support a spool gun. If you look into it you may get a beneficial surprise!
@johnmccarthy6451 cool thanks for the heads up. Like I said the millermatic 220 I have will accept a spool gun and I plan on doing a video on it. My 200 is OLD but kinda my go to work horse
I have the older, non pro version and it takes Lincoln contact tips and the narrow Lincoln fluxcore nozzle from Lowes. Sadly, the machine does not appear to have a full manual mode, just the "Synergistic" mode with an offset control.
@Silvertone2000 thanks for the info
I want to know about that 914 in the back ground.
@dannywiley4072 you are a nerd if you even know what a 914 is hahahah. It is my hot rod and auto cross car. If you have any other questions, let me know. I built it, so I should be able to answer any you have
@@jensendesign4920 I love Porsche. The 914 is just different and most people don’t mess with them. It’s on my list of cars to get along with the Corvair. Does that 914 have the original engine, chassis etc? Or tube chassis etc?
@@jensendesign4920 I video on the car would be great. And maybe I am a nerd lol. I’m cool with that lol.
Thanks for the review On a different note I saw you had a 914 in the shop I sold mine 25 yrs a go it was a 1970 914/6 loved it that mid engine was a dream unlike the 911’s that liked to play tag with the front when cornering and you better pray you were on the cam to straighten her out

Can it weld aluminum?
No only scratch tig steel
I have been a welder since 1976. I am 3 generations into a family of welders. My dad and grandfather were both factory welders, and I'm a structural welder. I have a YesWelder helmet I bought for my own personal use at home and I think there might be something wrong with your YesWelder. Mine is a lot clearer than what you're showing on your video.
@robotech there may be something wrong with that one. I have used other yes welder hoods and they were better than this one. Would you use a YesWelder hood for work?
@@jensendesign4920 No, we're not allowed to use anything that's not provided by the company due to liability reasons. Not even personal hand tools are allowed. But if we were, I'd have no problem using my own personal YesWelder. They're cheap to replace if they start to grow feet and go missing. It's much clearer than the older Miller I use at work.
@@robotech Thanks! I feel better about pulling the trigger on one. Just starting but having a neighbor teach me. I have a cheap harbor freight one and have a bit of a hard time seeing what I'm doing clearly
I don't see any difference and I didn't hear any difference while you were welding?
@terrinewman5954 I can't tell any difference except for the cost. I kinda think welding shops are trying to push the more expensive stuff
You mentioned not to plug the machine into 110 chord in the beginning if you don't have to. What do you recommend? Plugging right into an inverter generator or some other source of power?
@LastHourJasher if you can it is always better to plug it straight in to the wall and not use an extension cord
@@jensendesign4920 thanks.
Or... Plug it into a sink drain. That might work.
@LastHourNetwork don't plug it into an extension cord if you don't have to. If you can plug it straight into the wall, it is always better for any machine
I am fairly new to welding, though self taught, and studying well. I can tell you that the field of view is rather important, for myself where I wear bi focal glasses. I have to look through the correct section of my glasses, which means tipping my head that way as well. I find this to be the biggest issue for me, along with the focal length of my glasses. A narrow lens would make it even harder to get my helmet adjusted to a workable height; hard now with my big welding lens, and very frustrating. I recommend a bigger lens if you wear bi focal glasses. I have spoken to my eye doc and they can make for me, a special pair of glasses, that let me use the entire lens for welding. I just need to let them know the focal length I want. Not good glasses for driving though lol
You are far sighted. I can tell by the fact that you take your glasses off. I am very near sighted. I can see very well up close, very close; too close for the welding helmet, sooo, special needs for welding glasses and helmet lens size.
@@markluxton3402 I need readers to work up close so the opposite of you. I can see how a large viewing area would be very important for you. Thank you for bringing this to my atention I would not have thought of this need
@@jensendesign4920 Yes, you are obviously far sighted. I am very near sighted; so much so, that in order to make glasses for me to see at distance, they have to make my close focus a bit farsighted. I take my glasses off to look at tiny things up close. I read books without my glasses on, up close lol Without my current glasses, I would need to be too close to the welding. With my current glasses I have to back away and have a tiny window to look through; another tiny window in the welding hood, is just wrong. Here's the thing though. If I can get a purpose made pair of glasses, just a single focus bent arms length, and larger diameter, then I can move my eyes instead of my head, be at a decent working distance, and then a smaller welding lens would not be an issue. I still like the idea of a larger lens in any case, because sometimes you get in spots where you can not turn your head straight toward what you are working on. I have a couple old used helmets that were given to me. They have the 2X4 and 4X4 lenses. It would be a good idea for me to at least get new regular lenses for them, as backup.
This machine can be used as a stick welder also. So if you had to weld some thick stuff couldnt you just switch to stick welding and get the thicker stuff done?
@Dennon21 Yeah, it might stick weld thicker materal but you are still limited by how many amps the machine puts out.
@jensendesign4920 I'm looking to get this for small jobs around my shop, like replacing body panels, welding together tubing/ frames. Nothing crazy or big. Or even often. Would this be good for that type of stuff?
@Dennon21 yeah stick would be better for bigger stuff. I wish I tried the stick part of the machine
Could I use this to build my own flatbed for my Sierra? Out of aluminum or steel? Preferably aluminum. I've only just started researching this lol, after seeing what they want for custom flatbeds 😅
@OTRFlyer it won't weld aluminum. You could use it on steel, and as long as the materal you use isn't to thick this could work
@jensendesign4920 awesome! Thanks for your reply! I think I'm going to have to spend a little more $$ to weld aluminum. I'm trying to keep it as lightweight as I can.
@OTRFlyer I know harbor freight has a spool gun which would probably be the way to go. I haven't used it but it might be worth a try
@@jensendesign4920 awesome! I didn't know that so thanks! Gonna look it up now!

Is the yes welder 135 argon compatible
@timothyweinert4488 nope no gas. It will do tig but the gas runs through the torch lead and has a control knob on the torch handle
I’ve found the same thing.
And the price is so much better
I suspect the 3 volts is the trim for that setting you can probably go - 3 & + 3 Im just guessing though.
@@deepwinter77 I have figured out it doesn't give you much control. The 3v is just kinda a fine tune. It sets the power when you tell it what size wire
@@jensendesign4920 Yea i've seen similar trim options, Tbh You can get relatively cheap flux core welders without the crazy screen and digital stuff. It's going to be more reliable having less delicate components imo maybe a small display for voltage would be ok.
@@jensendesign4920For what it's worth, my understanding is that it's not just the wire size that sets the volts, it's the speed. Wire size + speed = whatever setting YesWelder believes is optimal, and the -3 to +3 is for fine tuning. I have the machine, but the project it was for got scrapped so haven't used it yet. Read the manual, though, and watched oodles of guides; still mean to learn, just haven't had a chance to try yet. Nice review, by the way. :P I know newbies seem to like it, but it takes more experienced folks to have a better feel for what's actually good, and what's merely adequate or iffy.
@jensendesign What wire? Does the wire matter? Thanks for the knowledge.
Great video man. Very helpful 💯
@glasshalffull8829 thank you
Does it work with 220v?
No the 135 pro is just set up for 110v
Claims to be a professional but can't setup a fluxcore machine on your own 😂
On my own who do you think set it up???
@@jensendesign4920 Sorry but I agree with that other guy, you made a monkey fornicating a football look rather coordinated.
How would you know the amperage on this machine?
You kinda don't. But my little Lincon welder just has a b c d settings sooo.....
It tells you on the paper that comes with the machine. Wire speed goes with volts. Then they allow you to adjust the amperage within volts within 3 up/down.
@@KingDawsy thanks man i ordered it and yes it does have a paper that’s tells you.

I recently bought the same welder and I'm new to welding but everywhere has been saying you don't push flux core you pull. If you push you'll get peroxidy.
True facts. I had the wire speed way to high. Once I turned the wire speed down all was good. Have you used the machine very much?

Plus my twin brother is a certified structural welder so he's been giving me advice and is going to help out with the learning process.
@@jensendesign4920 why would anyone give you a welder for review if you didn't know a very basic fact?
@@veganpottertheveganbot 🥴
@@NotMe-jm4hg do you know what that is?🫠
How thick of material would you trust this to weld up to? I’m thinking maybe 3/8ths if you did multiple passes, but I’m not sure if it would be able to
I would stay under 1/4 and prep everything really good. 3/8 if you preheat and multiple passes, maybe. Still would switch to a bigger welder
Pretty sure the tech sheet says 3/16ths max, but I've seen folks push it to 1/4 and do alright -- not great, not ideal, just okay. You've got to keep in mind, a lot of flux core wire isn't made for multiple passes. (I'm a newb who hasn't even started yet, and I don't recall the /why/, but you can get wire that allows it.)
@@dracodraco1982The sheet actually says 2/5 which is bizarre but yeah, it does 1/4 reliably
