Back/Dual-Purging Argon... TIG

ThatOneGuy · January 21, 2019, 5:17am

Was wondering, if I’m allowed to set this up and how?

If I have to get another tank for the argon to do this, where I can source the gas and how can I set it up with a second tank?

Typically one uses something like this.

You have one for the torch and one for the purge. As for if we allow it, @TBJK or @hon1nbo

Have you looked at solar flux?

No. Solar flux? Will that prevent sugaring on the other side? Looking it up now btw.

As long as you are not doing sanitary work solar flux should be fine. Yes, it will prevent sugaring.
