Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW/TIG) Capabilities

Watteredge's in-house welding capabilities include gas tungsten arc welding (tungsten inert gas/TIG) welding. We work with copper stainless steel aluminum to support our custom fabrication processing for many industries including:

• Food Processing
• Energy
• Water Treatment
• Medical

Our AWS certified welders are experts at any size TIG project, from small to large air and water cooled deltas and electrical bus systems all made on site at our facility.

We use the weld type and/or joint that will best suit the application for the highest quality finished product.
