A mig welding gun is a very important component on a mig welding machine. It’s very important that your mig torch is comfortable and that the wire feeds through smoothly and evenly. Some of the main problems people can have are all related to welding wire feed issues. It is crucial when you are wire feed welding that the wire feeds along the gun very smoothly. Any obstruction or blockage will cause the arc to become erratic and inconsistent. When this occurs it is very hard or next to impossible to keep a constant arc voltage. Your welding arc voltage is a very critical piece of the puzzle in terms of welding spatter reduction.

In the 1990s, Carhartt clothes became quite fashionable among people who were the followers of the hip hop culture. The clothing offered by this company offers more protection than the others. The work clothes made by them are designed in such a way that they deliver maximum protection to the workers such as welders and fitters.

If you are invited to take a weld test for a pipeline company or an oil rig outfit, and you pass, they still won’t let you weld pipe if you have never field welded pipe before.

All that is needed is a little practice to start the welding.

This is rated in a percentage, so for example 20%, 30% and 40%. What this tells you is that how long you can weld for in either a five minute block or ten minute block of time. So if your machine is rated at 20% duty cycle you could only weld at full power for 20% of either 5 minutes or 10 minutes. The trick here is to know what time frame your duty cycle is rated at.

I do not at all recommend this for anyone who is serious about making money in a production welding environment or welding and fabrication business. It will cause to much trouble.

Then simply clamp the jumper leads to the now larger 24volt battery, and you have a quick and simple arc welding machine that you can use to make roadside repairs in the middle of nowhere.
