What is MIG Welding
MIG welding is a smart choice for many welders. MIG welders are less expensive to buy and easier to master, making them a great choice for beginners. Even so, they deliver fast, clean results and power and features comparable to TIG and stick welders.

FAQ's MIG Welding
What type of materials can I weld with a MIG welder?
MIG welding can be used to weld a variety of materials, including steel, stainless steel, aluminum, copper, and nickel alloys.
How do I set the correct welding speed for my wire feed welder?
To set the correct welding speed for your wire feed welder, you will need to refer to the manufacturer's recommendations for your specific welding machine and wire size. A good starting point is to adjust the wire speed so that it matches the amperage setting on your welding machine. Usually there is a chart inside the door.
What are MIG and Wire Feed Welding Machines?
MIG (Metal Inert Gas) and Wire Feed welding machines use a consumable wire electrode to create an electrical arc that melts and fuses the metal together. MIG welding also uses a shielding gas to protect the weld pool from atmospheric contamination.
Can I use any kind of shielding gas with my MIG welder?
Not all shielding gases are suitable for MIG welding. The most commonly used shielding gas for MIG welding is 100% argon for welding non-ferrous metals, and a mixture of argon and carbon dioxide for welding steel. Shielding gas selection is dependent on the material being welded.
Are there any special techniques to ensure the best results when welding with a wire feed welder?
To ensure the best results when welding with a wire feed welder, it is important to maintain a consistent distance between the tip of the welding gun and the workpiece, as well as a consistent travel speed. It is also important to clean the workpiece thoroughly to remove any contaminants that may affect the quality of the weld. Finally, be sure to choose the right wire size and shielding gas for the material being welded.
