11 Tips for TIG Welding Aluminum with DC
When TIG welding aluminum, alternating current (or “AC”) is almost always used. Alternating current has a scrubbing effect on the surface, breaking up oxides that limit weld quality. However, it is possible to TIG weld aluminum with direct current (also called “DC”). Sometimes, DC is a better choice to TIG…
