Welder guide

Process and material thickness decide which welder suits the job, not just the amperage rating.

MIG welders

General steel fabrication with the easiest technique to pick up.

TIG welders

The cleanest finish, particularly on stainless steel and aluminium.

Arc (stick) welders

Most portable option, works outdoors and in windy conditions where gas shielding would fail.

Generator-welder combo units

Sites without power, providing both welding current and general site power.

Choosing the right welding process

MIG welders are easiest to use and suit general steel fabrication, making them the default choice for most site and workshop repair work. TIG welders give the cleanest finish on stainless steel and aluminium but require more skill and a steadier hand. Arc (stick) welders are the most portable option and keep working outdoors in wind where gas-shielded processes would be disrupted.

MIG welders typically need argon/CO2 shielding gas, usually available from the depot separately, though flux-cored MIG wire is gasless and a practical option for outdoor or windy conditions. TIG welders need pure argon shielding gas. Confirm gas supply arrangements when booking so you're not caught short mid-job.

Welding fumes are a recognised health hazard under COSHH, and adequate ventilation or local exhaust extraction is essential, particularly in confined spaces. Full PPE including a welding helmet with the correct shade lens, heat-resistant gloves, and flame-resistant clothing is required regardless of process, and appropriate training is expected before operating hired welding equipment.

Training and PPE required

Welding equipment requires appropriate training and PPE including a welding helmet, heat-resistant gloves, and flame-resistant clothing. Ensure adequate ventilation.
