MIG Welder

​What Is MIG Welding?

Metal Inert Gas (MIG) is also known as gas metal arc welding (GMAW). This type of welding is basically an arc welding process that joins two metals.

This is done by heating the metals with the help of an arc.

This arc is formed between the surface to be welled and a continuously fed filler electrode.

This type of welding uses a shielding gas to protect the molten pool of weld metal from reacting with elements present in the atmosphere.

MIG welding requires a DCEP (Direct Current Positive Electrode), also known as Reverse Polarity.
