Argon Vs Helium GTAW

A quick illustration of the difference between Argon and Argon/Helium gas mixtures when TIG welding on Aluminum.
If one was to cool air down to a liquid, how much of it would reasonably safely fit into a G size cylinder (which hold about 353 cubic feet of oxygen I think)..?.
Thanks for the informative video. I am still confused about settings for spray transfer when welding aluminum. Spray is certainly achieved using 100% argon and voltages certainly less than 25 volts. Why is this? Suggested settings on some welders for aluminum spray have voltages around 18 volts whereas other machines set about 21 volts. Are these differences just related to the machines’ idiosyncrasies?
What about with solid core wire?
Sir, May we use 70 argon 30 c02 for welding in instant of 80/20 for cost saving
Why TF you leave out the sound of perfect arc??!
How can that lead seal melt at 212f when the melting point of lead is 621f? Did I miss something? 😊
It's actually a metal alloy similar to solder, not sure exactly what it it though. This is precisely the reason if you've ever taken a welding class at a trade school or community college for instance, one of the things you're taught is to never use boiling water to thaw a frozen valve or free a cylinder frozen to the ground since you could either melt safety plug or soften it enough to leak, and some cylinders, particularly larger acetylene cylinders, have a safety plug at the bottom as well as the valve assembly.
That makes more sense with the alloy. Thanks.
Amazing video!!! I wish they taught this stuff in High Schools...seems like very good common sense. God bless you sir!
Thank you, bery informative. I believe you can obtain spray transfer mode when mig welding aluminum at a much lower voltage?
Does the argon helium last any longer or is it just a gas in the bottle
helium is lighter than air, argon is heavier than air. So you need to use more helium than argon.
Thanks, you answered my questions expertly
What about aluminum wiring
Good sir nice demonstratration ❤❤❤❤
Great information about GMAW method , thank you Sir !!
If argon reduces smoke and increases deposition, why can't we run on 100%argon as we do with aluminium or tig?
Try it,you WON'T like it.
Brilliant video and explanation. I've been using spray transfer on 8mm plate, horizontal fillet and vertical down fillet with really good results . I like your video because of the possible problems and how to rectify them. Great job 👍
Thank you for the vid!!!!!
and doesnt hold up the actual cables to gauge real world size..................idiot
Thanks for the explanation! It helps to see a person standing next to the cylinders to help aid in figuring out how heavy they are and how to move them around.
Probably one of the best videos on spray transfer and how to manage it with machine settings.
1:49 vThe camera is not from the same ange
Good to know. ty
You can buy any size cylinder. Including 300 cf.
So do you have to push or can you pull the puddle with spray transfer and can there be oscillations or manipulations such as arcs or cursive e's or does it have to be a straight push or pull?
Every one of those bottles can be customer owned.
Thanks for drilling down to usable information in all of the videos I have watched so far. I can't work out why you don't have a huge following.
Just because your company only leases the larger cylinders does not mean that they are only leased cylinders for everybody. Where I live, you can own any cylinder, and refill any size.
This guy full of crap I have been in welding business for 50 plus years I own over 45 bottles, I have bought bottles for years it doesn't make a difference how big they are and they belong to me. The company that I have been working with to fill my bottles went broke or sold out, now all these other so-called companies will not fill my bottles, they want to trade my bottles for their bottles they can go jump in the lake, I have too much money invested in new valve and nice paint jobs on my bottles I'm not giving up my bottles for rent. I do not lease the bottles to anyone I use them for my own use. All these welding supply companies think they own everything that way they can put the screws to you and charge you all they can. In Texas by law they cannot charge you rent on the bottles unless you sign an agreement on a pick-up day and a return date. When you buy the gas in a bottle it is yours until the bottle is empty. The only way they could charge you rent if they are a rental company.
@@sherwinstaudt1881that sucks. Can't you just replace the neck rings and show proof of ownership?
@@jordananders8525I've been in a welding business a machine business and supply business since 1976. It is not a question of ownership of my bottles, all my bottles has customer-owned on them, 75/25 mix, pure Argan, oxygen, acetylene, CO2, nitrous oxide, the problem is the companies that I went to said it was too much trouble for them to fill my bottles and return them to me, so they wanted me to give them my bottles and then they would not charge me rent on their bottles and they would keep me supplied or what I need. Back in 76 we did that with a company gave them around 12 bottles 3 years later they start charging me rent but did not replace my bottles a bunch of Thieves. So shame on me once not twice. So now I have no alternative but to drive 300 miles one way to have my bottles filled. The reason for that is nobody around here will fill acetylene. All these be high-tech companies want to cut the little man out like me, just like Walmart has done the mama pop stores.
@@sherwinstaudt1881 huh. Here in utah we have Humphries that will do fill only and give you the bottle back. most other places will swap out for one with a blank neck ring if you own the bottle, and all slick necks are considered to be COCs unless the bottle itself has ownership markings. Lindie/praxair gives me slick necks if I ask. Every area is different but only doing business with places that give you slick necks might be your best bet. And for the bottles that might have been de facto stolen, small claims court maybe? Sounds like a fairly easy case.
Hi im in the uk using C15 ( 85 /15 ) here's my problem ? we use 0.039mm wire ( 1mm ) so what would be the optimum parameters for welding using 27.5 V what would my wire speed be yours is 600 Ipm I need a Meters per minute approx Thank you for the Video
You don’t need meters per minute, not being a prick but you need to pay attention to the silica that is deposited on the bead surface…… the colour ranges from very light caramel to dark brown and all the way to black….. you don’t want black, you want to be getting a caramel colour, more towards the light end of the range, that goes for both dip transfer (shirt circuit) and spray transfer… the colour gives you your temperature. As for voltage, you can’t get spray below 25 volt’s so just crank your machine to 3/4 of its maximum wire feed speed then set the bolts to around 30 volts, from there you can fine tune depending on the results…. The tip of the wire should be pointed, and the arc will be conical with an arc length, measured from the tip of the wire to the weld pool, of about 5mm….If that gap is say 10mm then you either need to increase wire speed or decrease the volts….. I jump from dip to spray depending on which weld I’m doing and I think I spray at around 13-14 meters a minute, .09 dis wire, argoshield gas and the volts are about 30-31 and that’s just a light bead….. play with the settings and have fun, try setting your machine up for dip just by listening to the sound it makes, should sound like bacon frying….. I shouldn’t have smoked that joint earlier!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
The DOT-3AA is not specifically a steel material designation, but rather a cylinder design standard. Take a look at 49CFR178.37. The hydro static test pressure is also 5/3 times the marked service pressure. www.ecfr.gov/current/title-49/subtitle-B/chapter-I/subchapter-C/part-178/subpart-C/section-178.37
As a welder of 12+ years, I gotta say...this is great information. Took me trial and error to learn many of these.
Explained very comprehensibly
this is a great comparison thanks...
Best video yet ,very good .
🇺🇸👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Dude...... read your charts before "giving a lesson". Your own charts contradicted you, both charts!
I'm not sure why you're saying you need a minimum of 80% argon for spray tranfer, when the very chart you posted @ 1:25 shows the exact amount of argon mix needed. 98% is the minimum needed for true spray tranfer.
What you're talking about is still globular tranfer. For "true" spray transfer, a mixture of at least 98% argon is needed with 2% oxygen on mild steel. 99% argon and 1% oxygen for stainless steel. See "The Welding Handbook, 9th edition, Volume 2, Table 4.1. Globular to spray transfer currents", as per the American Welding Society.
That demonstration is misleading, you can’t see argon so visually co2 make a larger, VISIBLE cloud, science involes facts not opinion.
I just bought a 125 cf cylinder brand new from Amazon it is definately customer owned so your info is wrong
Thank you for this video
Even that first weld was awful. The entire thing had undercut all along the top. Spray is so hot that you should never EVER use it on thin material like that. I use spray transfer at work every single day and they should never ever look that way. Spray should look very similar to pulse MIG in the flat position and have the distinct freeze rings you'd normally have. Not to mention your travel speed. See how fast you're having to go on that dinky little 1/8" material? Spray is not meant for metal that thin at all. If you really want cleaner welds with thinner metal, use 90/10 gas at like 22 volts or something. Your freeze rings are shaped like a bird's beak.
What do you mean 125 can only be rented or leased? I own a 125. With a slick neck ring
Extremely good teacher. Thank you for your clear explanation. One of the best videos i have seen over the years.
Pity It won’t allow me to upvote this video more than once
He using 035
So all this info pertains to dual shielding?..
Great video. Very informative. Thanks you.
Very informative !
is there a general formula to compute amperage for a given voltage & wire feed speed?
Excellent lesson Nathan, many thanks!
