» Insufficient shielding gas.
Oxidations
Cause
» Insufficient shielding gas.
Porosity
Cause
» Grease, varnish, rust or dirt on the workpieces to be
welded.
» Grease, varnish, rust or dirt on the filler material.
» Humidity in the filler metal.
» Incorrect arc length.
» Humidity in the welding gas.
Solution
» Clean the pieces accurately before welding.
» Use a smaller diameter electrode.
» Increase the chamfering.
» Decrease the distance between the electrode and the piece.
» Move regularly during all the welding operations.
Solution
» Adjust the air flow.
» Check that the diffuser and the gas nozzle of the torch are in good
condition.
Solution
» Increase the distance between the electrode and the piece.
» Increase the welding voltage.
» Increase the welding current.
