TIG Welding Arc

A carbon electrode can be used as a non-consumable in the basic welding circuit to develop arc heat and permit welding. If the workpiece is eliminated from the circuit, however, and the leads from the power source are run to two carbon electrodes, the tips of which are close to each other, an arc can be established that has practical use in welding, brazing, soldering, and heating for other purposes.

  • carbon-arc torches are "open-arc" heating processes.
  • carbon-arc is used in welding aluminum and copper alloys in brazing and soldering.
  • carbon-arc is useful for spot or area heating to enable the bending or straightening of metals or for heat shrinking to remove distortion from a part or assembly.
