How to fix porosity in CIGWELD Welding System?
- Mmia04Aug 15, 2025
Porosity in your weld could stem from several issues. First, ensure your shielding gas cylinder isn't empty and that the flow meter is correctly set to 15 liters per minute, providing adequate gas coverage around the welding arc. Also, any dirt on the workpiece surface can cause porosity, so make sure to clean contaminates off the work piece. If you're welding in a windy environment, shield the weld area or increase the gas flow to compensate. Keep the distance between the MIG Torch nozzle and the work piece to a minimum. Finally, check the MIG Torch itself, ensuring the gas holes aren't blocked by spatter buildup and that the O-rings are not damaged.
