    linde hda200 post purge question

    I have a linde hda200, when I hit the foot pedal to tig, no gas, the only way I can get a flow of gas is to mess with the post purge on the timer and set it to run all the time and use my on/off on my torch.. anyone else ever had this problem? the foot pedal is an old arctron.

    great idea, yea im not building a nasa rocket here guys! I do believe you guys are right though, im going to say brazing rods here. I do have a hell of a tig welder, but still haven't got a argon tank yet, so I do have a lot to learn on the tig welding,

    Tig welding filler rod question, rusty

    yes most of them, the rust is light, I have put aside the bad ones. I don't see anything on any of them as far as markings? I know the damage is done now, but using scotchbrite or similar is about all I can do now right? there are all different kinds mixed together.

    Tig welding filler rod question, rusty

    Hey fellas, my buddy scrapped a lot, I mean 80.00 in scrap! of these filler rods, they are all different sizes and types. he gave me a bunch of them, but they have some surface rust on them, is it worth keeping them and before using take some steel wool to them? they where free. :dunno:
