Stainless steel Mig. Sorry all you tiggers out there.

I use tri-mix with short arc, 98/2 for pulse and iirc also for the flux core. Im sure there is more than one way to skin a cat.

The guy definitely has some experience, but it seems he also has an axe to grind and he does plagiarize some of his articles, but it's worth reading and you're sure to learn something.

I've been reading the site you referenced above, and good grief, how in the world is someone supposed to know all these things? Quite intimidating to a newcomer to welding, that's for sure...

Not only does he obviously have an axe to grind, but his grammar is worse than a 5th grader's! I just can't stand all of the terrible grammar I'm seeing on all of the welding message boards these days either! I really wish people would pay attention to what they're saying and how they're saying it!

Okay...it's 1:38am and I'll end my rant. Good info on the link, MAC...thank you for sharing it.

strait argon

[jwsrep]

For solid SS wire use tri-mix (90% Helium/7.5% Argon/2.5% CO2)
for SS flux core I prefer to use 75% Argon/25% CO2 over straight CO2

I would only use 98% Argon/2% Oxygen for spray or pulse spray transfer.
