Re: Welding Aluminum MIG or TIG?

We weld aluminum all the time with a Mig welder and it works perfectly. You defintely need pure argon gas and your welder should move pretty quickly while he is welding. we crank the voltage and the feed rate to the maximum settings when welding .125 in thick bars. Aluminum isn't extremely difficult to weld on, just remember to move quickly and practice on the scraps you can.
