oof. Aluminum welding needs 2 things to work well, clean material and spray transferring of material. 1. Brush the oxide layer off the metal (Brush with a SS brush that has never touched rust or any other metal, sharpie "ALUMINUM ONLY" on it) 2. Clean it with Isopropyl alcohol 3. Your weld should sound like a hiss, no spurts or sputters, you may need to adjust distance and/or feed speed. Ideally it'll look like there's a cone of plasma that jumps from the work to the aluminum wire, if that cone touches the tip, it'll jam, if it's too far away, it'll sputter. Good aluminum welding produces almost no spatter. Remember to push into the weld, don't draw away from it like stick welding. Hope that helps :)

Sounds like you are referring more to a dual shielded process. To me, I think your travel angle needs to be improved/flipped around. Pull the bead rather than push it. And why the hell are you welding on a wood table???
@melgross3 жыл бұрын
Unless you’re using high power for your welds, you are not going to be in spray transfer. You’ll be in short arc mode.

Aluminum oxidizes instantly, you cant brush it off. But yes it needs to be free of other contamination.

This spoolgun is the shit did a big job with it and it worked awesome. Had bought the Lincoln 210mp and man that thing goes. Used it on 110v and 220v worked good , but will be a beast on 220v.

Quick tip. When adding new wire to a spool gun or the machine, always remove the tip off of the gun and make sure gas is turned off.

You said the Argon was adjusted to 35 psi. I think you meant 35 CFH (CUBIC FEET PER HOUR). I was hoping it would work on my Lincoln 100 weld pak. I need to download that owners manual. Thanks for posting

Helps if you straighten about a foot length of wire before sticking the wire into the feed roller

Question ❓ I would like to know if you have ever welded steel with your spool gun Or will the spool gun handle such a task as welding steel with either flux core or gas wire Thank you in advance

@jessevillasenor5366 Жыл бұрын
Feed the wire thru first with the trigger and then put spool in slot worked way better. If it kinks reverse the wire spool and then remove the tip amd feed the wire and cut-off the kinked wire and put the tip back on.

You shouldn't have too. Recheck the wiring, and some models require to wire in a switch. Some models already have it. Make sure it is switched to spool gun.
@Ruben9013 жыл бұрын
Theres a switch inside the machine where you can switch to spool gun mode.

Or, you didn’t follow the instructions, and the roller adjustment has the rollers too far apart. Most likely the reason. Or, you didn’t put the wire in properly.

Pal you obviously don't have a clue about mugging aluminum should be 0 spatter fucking 0 so.... It doesn't work worth a shot on a 180 welder doesn't put out enough amperage or voltage rather

I don't understand why aluminum has to be fed from a spool gun instead of from the welder like a steel wire spool.
@JoeOster3 ай бұрын
maybe it doesn't have the same compression strength as steel and would bind up in the hose over that length
