When TIG with SilBr, use Argon. With MIG, use 75/25 like normal. You will use less heat with both processes with SilBro wire as you don’t melt the base metal, but only the filler.KenK wrote:I have never heard of Sil/Bronze wire. I do on occasion do quite a bit of real thin steel. When I have to do this I generally use my TIG machine for better heat control.
What kind of gas would you use with Sil/Bronze wire??
Would that be kind of like brazing with o/a??
Relatively new, I have been welding with MIG for years using a cheap 110 amp gas MIG. Last year I finallly stepped up and bought a Miller Mig ( about 185 amp). What a difference!! I have been doing TIG for about 2 years but I am only a hobbyist not a pro by any means.
