Pulse Tig Welders

The latest in Pulse Tig Welders is available from Tokentools. We have different models available in DC Pulse Tig welder such as the TIG160P and the TIG200P. In the ACDC welder range we have our AC DC Pulse Tig welders available in standard ACDC Tig or Multi Process Tig Welder. Pulse Tig welders vary the amount of current during the welding process. They use a peak welding current to perform the fusion process and a background welding current to allow the material to rest and solidify between pulse welding cycles. […]

What is arc welding?

WHAT IS ARC WELDING? Arc or MMA (Manual Metal Arc) Welding is the oldest example of currently used electric welding procedures, and perhaps the most straight forward to use and understand. The principle of arc welding is simple; a relatively large current is passed through a welding rod (or filler rod) of the appropriate metal (Mild steel for welding steel etc.) and a circuit is completed through it when it comes into contact with the earthed metal being welded. The join between the welding rod and the work being welded […]

Welding Brushes

Never underestimate the importance of your welding brushes. Welding wire brushes allow you to clean the base material correctly before you start welding and between each pass. To avoid contamination that will ruin your weld it is also important to have different brushes for different materials – tempered steel for carbon steel, stainless for stainless and brass for aluminum. Invest in a good set of brushes to improve your weld quality and appearance.

Welding Acronyms – Meaning of welding terms.

Arc [Arc Length] – The physical gap between the end of the electrode and the point where the arc makes contact with the base metal. Duty-cycle – As per EN/AS50974.1, the minutes out of a 10-minute period a welder / welding machine can be operated at maximum rated output. For example, a 60% duty cycle @ 300 Amps means that the welding machine can be used for 6 minutes (at 300 Amps) and then must be allowed to cool with the fan running for 4 minutes. This reduces the chance of […]
