For Aluminium can you advise what colour or type electrode should I use pls.. I'm normally on red tipped 1.6mm .. sorry for what might look like a dumb Q but I've only just got an AC/DC machine and have yet to try Aluminium..
thank you's...
At this stage Noods it doesn't really matter so much as the subtle differences between them won't be noticed
The only one I wouldn't use because of its characteristics under ep loading would be red tips. This is a dc only tungsten primarily or ac when not balling it up and welding with high electrode negative to maintain a point. White, grey, gold, blue will all cover your needs perfectly.
White/green are ac only so if you want a "do all" tungsten use any of the other 3.
I think White for AC only was what Hood meant, that is the way I read it anyway. Why I said Dito. Actually I meant to clarify that last night but forgot.
