MIG like TIG welding: Just Say No!

This video does a deep dive into the shallow end of welding with MIG such that it looks like TIG. MIG- or Motorized Inert Gas- welding uses a drive wheel to push solid core wire through an electrified tip, arcing and liquifying the wire as it gets pushed into a weld. TIG- or Tungsten Inert Gas- welding uses a electrified tungsten rod to superheat a small area between the rod and the metal to be welded. Filler metal is added manually by hand to the molten pool of metal. MIG makes an even weld looks, whereas TIG makes a circular patterned look. Some fabricators use MIG welders in a bizarre technique such that it appears patterned like a TIG welder would make. Unfortunately, using MIG in this fashion greatly reduces the structural quality of the weld. I would be highly discourage the method unless you are certain that the alternatively welded object meets the structural requirements of the part's use. It does look fabulous if you like the way TIG looks, though!

The main reason this is done is NHRA/IHRA requires all chassis’s to be tig welded there doing this to fool the tech inspectors into thinking there chassis is legitimately safe when it’s not

That's a very interesting thought. It would be a horrible mistake because it's so much weaker than actual MIG.

well hot dang, you're right! Almost never have I been more surprised. I like my version Motorized Inert Gas (MIG) vs Metal Inert Gas (MIG) better, since it's all metal! Good Catch

Have to keep the volts high so that your puddle lays down better. Just turn the wire feed down. I personally am not a fan of mig like tig.

It will look good after you grind it 😉

Thanks for the demonstration. I agree with your thoughts on strength being the most important thing. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Maine.

Making a strong weld takes about a quarter the time too!

It's a lot harder to do on 1/8 inch metal haha

It's a good point, but don't you still have low penetration regardless of the thickness?
