Do you want to become the "go to guy" for aluminum your town or county ? have you always dreamed of fixing all aluminum things but you though welding aluminum was too hard ? watch this !
If anyone doesn't have the spacer for 5kg rolls of wire, just go to a plumbing supplier and get 56mm PVC waste pipe and cut to i think 22mm iirc might be different in the US. Im not sure what the imperial versions would be im in Europe Ireland
Nice video and valuable information. Aluminum is a whole different animal than what I’m used to. I primarily weld carbon and some stainless so this is like welding 101 for me😂
I am glad you enjoyed the video. Over the years I talked to hundreds of customers, some were new welder other welded for decades but one thing most of them have in common is: they have very little or no aluminum welding experience. Often times they were told that welding aluminum is very difficult BUT that is just not true! It’s just different….! So I am making these videos and talk to guys over the phone to help them to get their feet wet in aluminum welding.
Thanks for your no BS welder reviews ! Glad i saw your "NoWelder" (YesWelder) review..i almost ordered one! 😮. Question So does this HTP Pro pulse eliminate the need for a spool gun? I rarely need really long leads because i work on small stuff.
Zila in your experience which HTP machine should I get for welding 3/8 to 1/2 inch aluminum? Planning on using it to do field repairs and I want the ability to weld pulsed mig and pulsed stick. Thanks!
@@JuanDavid-ts8ur I am not 100% sure how it works I dont work in sales, I know we occasionally do ship international ..... last I heard is the order has to be placed over the phone 847 357 0700 and the invoice has to be paid in full with a wire transfer before the machine leaves ... but - I really dont know all the details where are you located ?
well, you can order it online www.usaweld.com Or you can order over the phone and you can pay with cc or however you want. So you live by whistling diesel😂 I have a guy in bon aqua,tn who has a lot of htp stuff…. My kids have a little piece of heaven in lisle ,tn
You mean the -2.9 trim? YES that was too low for demonstration purposes Ir do you mean the manual mode just after that ? Well - THAT is the downfall of spool guns …. Anything under 1/8” material thickness is not good welding w/o pulse on aluminum …. Miller even will give you a setting for 14ga aluminum on a 252 with 30A spool gun …. BUT it is short circuit and not really suitable
Thanks for the reply. In pulse mode for 1/8 and thinner does the voltage and amperage get high enough for spray transfer? Also, in pulse mode the upper amperage is higher than in non pulsed mode and the base amperage is lower but does the voltage change?

Hey friend, your video content left a deep impression on me. Is it possible for us to collaborate on a project at some point? Let me know your thoughts and keep working hard! ❣
Was screaming at my screen watching those needle nose grabbing the brass compression coupler nut. :). Otherwise great video- Hi Zila!

The way u just ate that bolt hurt me so much...
great stuff......your videos is always very informative.....cheers, Paul 'Paulie' Brown in Florida
Glad you like them!

Yes it does, it has s dedicated mig gun with a special liner 9ft long and it works like a charm
@@ZILAwelds thank you!!
Great information!!!
Wait, you are not using spool gun ?
TKS❤❤🎉

Sounds like you need the HTP pp300
Thank you! Pulse pro 300 it is then. Is there a way to order from the US store directly?

Thx. With your setting of 17 volts for 1/8 the transfer mode sounded like short circuit. Is that right?
You mean the -2.9 trim?
YES that was too low for demonstration purposes
Ir do you mean the manual mode just after that ?

@@johnmacmillan627 yes it does. What you see on the display is an average there is some proprietary pulse shapes that will do the magic.

Are you going to show tips like this for the Revolution 2500?
I could. For aluminum mig ?
@@ZILAwelds , sure. Any and all tips appreciated. I'm on the wait-list for the Revolution, so I'm a sponge for this content.
