AL tig welding setup q's
A question for the ac tig welders.
I'm finally getting an acdc tig!
What tungsten do you use for aluminium with AC tig? I have read articles that all contradict each other. Some say straight tungsten (apparently not good with inverter), some say ceriated, some say thoriated, some say lantharated and also zirconiated (so pretty much all). Whilst saying that they say not to use the others.
I will be mostly welding sheet and flat bar. 1.5mm to 6mm.
I have thoriated so would like to use those, but some articles say they crack.
Looking for real world advise!
