Learn the backstep technique for TIG welding in this 10-minute video. Discover how this method can prevent distortion, especially when working with thin metals like aerospace test welds on .020" thick 15-7ph stainless steel. Observe a demonstration of the backstep technique on .040" thick steel, and understand how breaking a longer weld into shorter sections can be more efficient and reduce deflection. Gain insights into when and why to use this technique, particularly for test pieces and challenging materials.
