So I have been doing stick welding on 18 gauge stainless for quite a long time and thought to share some info about this thing. People often ask me things about doing it, so here it comes. Definitely a lot more tricky to do but overall says its surely a doable task. The 1.6 mm electrode are difficult to weld because of very thin coating but as soon as I got a good welding electrode, I surely upload a video over that.

Amazing, innovative work. Stick can do TIG type work. Exactly what I'm trying to do, 1 mm ss welding into containers. Stick is underrated for this type of work with many using TIG if at all possible.

thank you for your very interesting video. I've weld many stainless steel tubes 2mm thick with , and I often do holes when welding 1mm thick plates. I do like the demonstration with the 3 diameters sticks for all the differents welds.

@ambroscustom 3 года назад

Buddy the problem with thick rod is that the amount of Amps needed it to melt, when it reaches upto that state the temperature is already too high for sheet metal and that cause the holes. It's doable but it's not going to be a fusable weld.

@@ambroscustom Hey.. quick question... does your welder have a 'hot start' ? Would this technique be possible with a welder that had hot start?

@ambroscustom 3 года назад

No dear, it didn't have a hot start feature and I don't think you really need that, it will surely going to make holes in the sheet of this thin size. Hot start gives you a more penetration and we did not required here because what ever tack you are going to make they penetrate easily.

Thank you for this helpful video. I bookmarked it long before I purchased a welder and now I hope to use your tips for a challenging project. I need to weld (expensive) 316 stainless steel handrail fittings to a 25mm railing of 1.5mm thick, to make a roof support, and polish it afterwards. Getting rod sizes and Amps correct really matters. The result of the pickling agent looks great but unfortunately, in my country it can only be purchased by certified professionals because it’s so hazardous. I will need to grind.

@michaelszczys8316 9 месяцев назад

I used to have certification for MIG welding thin sheet stainless steel. We used to have to weld panels together with no burn- through, only discoloration that would then be cleaned with the acid. I don't think I ever even TRIED to weld any thin sheet stainless with a stick. Stainless is so touchy, I will warp just looking at it. You don't need to weld it. Just heat it with a torch it will assume a whole new shape.

Hi AMbros Custom, i would like to do a repair job on the stainless steel bowsprit of my boat. It is made out of 1 inch diameter tube. I was looking to see if i could get some advice on you tube and came across your channel. Your video was really helpful, but i just wanted to ask, will welding the tube be the same as the flat pieces you demonstrated, that is ,can i use the spot welding method with 2 mm rod, or do i have to do a complete pass.I have a small a.c. welder. Many thanks, Oz.

@ambroscustom 3 года назад

Buddy, there is a video on my channel in which I weld on 2" pipe having a wall thickness of 1.5mm. the process is almost the same. That is definitely a doable task. Tried to make the joint as precise as possible and avoid any air gap between the joints because that's the main cause of blow holes. Tried to have thin electrode and kept the amps at 45-50. That is very good for 1-1.5mm metal and also provide better fusion. Don't make a complete run in one go. Stich welding is the only way you can do it. This video might help you little bit to boost your confidence. Good luck. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-n7qxpbQa4GU.html

Bro i wanted to fill some welding on bike leak tank so which rod I have to use ????

@ambroscustom Год назад

Preffer brazing rather than welding, stick welding damage the tank, or you go with tig welder. You can fill the small pin holes with stick welding with 2.4 mm rod at 60 amps but be careful, it's a bit more difficult.

@jxn007 4 года назад

@bennyhill3642 Год назад

Great video. And thank you. Question, how thin can you go? Thanks again😇

@ambroscustom Год назад

Thanks mate. If you provide an aluminium backing as heat sink you can safely weld 20 gauge thick sheet but rather than performing the full weld go with stich weld to avoid heat deformation.

@glennlopez6772 3 года назад

Just one question please! Some welders use a shorter lengths of thin, say 1.6mm stick to minimise bouncing, but is it okay to cut an electrode down to size?

@ambroscustom 3 года назад

Yeah buddy its ok to cut. Or you can also remove little bit flux from centre and hold from right in the middle, in this way you can use half from both sides. If find it difficult then no big problem in cutting but it's always good to practice with bigger one, that also minimise the wastage.

@mrjodoe 3 года назад

1mil stainless runs good with 2mil electrode @49A

@Telectronics 3 года назад

So you can tack 1mm stainless with a 2,5mm electrode If you are fast and don´t pull lines ? Thanks I will try it with your 45A. I need that for holding before I do hard soldering.

@ambroscustom 3 года назад

Yes dear you can, also using some sort of aluminium block along the weld lines also helps. If feels difficult to do then try changing the polarity will definitely help, electrode to negative and ground to positive. Good luck:)

The cube is a cross did'nt know that. Very nice habilety. Does brand of rod make a difference. I tried to solder 2 spoons as practice , low amp rod sticks high amp spoons melt ! E 6013 3.2mm ...any advice is welcome. I use $99 inverter from the web

@ambroscustom 3 года назад

Well buddy the trick is that to weld thin sheets it's absolutely mandatory to use thinner electrode. 3.2 mm is considered to be thick. I use 2.4 mm for 1.5 mm thick material.Never tried 3.2 mm for these thin materials. So go for thin and go low for thin sheets.
