Power Tig 185 Micro Eratic Arc

[Winky]

That bluing on the pipe shows it is Stainless Steel, or steel and not aluminum! The way you were discussing it was that it was aluminum with the AC settings you gave. The settings of AC balance and frequency are moot. It doesn't matter if it's on DC. And you close to 70-80 amps at the least for .095...and of course DC.

HF point gaps would only affect it if you are not getting an arc transfer. They shut down after the start.

How far off are you holding your tungsten? Think about the tungsten coming about the thickness of a credit card off the puddle.

Make sure your gas is 100% argon. It is also possible it is contaminated.

That makes perfect sense ... tighter arc and the three c's ... clean, clean, clean. I kinda figured the points would only effect start up which is why I didn't throw that out originally. The reason I mentioned DCEN was because I saw the picture wasn't aluminum and freq and bal was a moot point. I guess I should be more succinct in discussions ... my bad. He'll get it worked out I'm sure it's not anything major Everlast equipment is high quality. I'll butt out now and stop messing up this thread sorry.
