Stainless steel welding

We have an extensive specialization in stainless steel welding and have no fewer than 30 unique stainless steel welding work places. Each welding location is equipped with various connections to the central argon gas network, which makes the use of backing gas easy and results in high-quality welding work.

 

Backing gas for stainless steel welding

We use backing gas when welding stainless steel (SS) to protect the back of the weld seam against atmospheric influences. The gas is added to the back of the weld seam during the welding process. This gas creates a protective atmosphere to prevent oxidation and contamination of the molten metal at the back.

Frequently asked questions about stainless steel welding

  • How can I weld stainless steel?

Welding stainless steel requires clean surfaces and the use of suitable welding methods and materials, such as Tig and Mig welding. We offer professional help for complex projects.

  • What is the difference between Tig and Mig welding?

TIG welding (Tungsten Inert Gas) uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode and inert gas to weld, while MIG welding (Metal Inert Gas) uses a continuous wire electrode and active gas. TIG welding is suitable for fine and precise work on various materials, while MIG welding is faster and easier for thicker metal.

  • Which welding machine for stainless steel?

TIG welding (Tungsten Inert Gas) is generally recommended for welding stainless steel. TIG welding provides precision and control when welding stainless steel, resulting in high-quality and durable connections.
