Proper Filler Rod Technique for TIG Welding

Описание: Properly adding filler rod is critical to TIG weld quality. This video walks through proper TIG welding filler rod techniques, focusing on hand position, rod angle, and controlled feeding into the weld puddle.
It covers both dabbing and continuous-feed methods, explains how to avoid contaminating the tungsten, and shows that keeping the filler rod within the argon gas shield improves weld quality and consistency.

What you'll see:
How to hold a TIG filler rod for smooth, controlled feeding
Why filler rod angle affects weld puddle control
What causes tungsten contamination and how to avoid it
How dabbing and continuous feed techniques differ
Why keeping filler within gas coverage improves weld quality
