Preparing today for block two session starting very soon. Welding up exemplars with details written on each one, thought it would be a good idea to share around with other budding tiggers.
Plant: Lincoln Electric 3 phase Invertec 305T AC/DC Inverter.
Tungsten: Ceriated 2.4 dia.
Gas: Argon @ 10 LPM.
Rods: See pic for spec.
LCS Corner & Butt joints: Root run using 1.6 dia filler, Capped using 2.4 dia. Remainder of LCS joints: 1.6 dia filler rod.
Al/Al: All joints made with single pass using 2.4 dia filler. Butt gapped @ 2.4mm, corner gapped @ 1.5mm. Same for LCS Butt & Corner.
Gaps and amp settings are what I work with, others may do different, all down to preference really!
Malcolm, feel free to tidy up pics and, select/delete using your judgement on picture quality.
Cheers...............
Oops, can only upload ten, more to come........
