• Cotton gloves

What is the significance of the tungsten electrode in TIG welding?

• It melts to add filler material to the weld.

• It is used to clean the base material.

• It conducts electricity and creates the arc.

• It shields the weld pool from atmospheric gases.

Which of the following materials can be welded using TIG welding?

• Aluminum

• Steel

• Magnesium

• All of the above

What is the most common technique to start the arc in TIG welding?

• Scratch start

• High-frequency start

• Touch start

• None of the above

Why is TIG welding often considered more difficult than other types of welding?

• It requires the use of both hands and a foot pedal.

• It can only be done in a workshop setting.

• It does not require filler material.

• It uses a higher voltage than other welding types.

In TIG welding, what is the purpose of the foot pedal?

• To control the flow of shielding gas

• To adjust the welding current

• To move the welding table

• To switch the power source on and off

Which of the following is a key advantage of TIG welding over other welding processes?

• Faster welding speeds

• No need for shielding gas

• Higher quality and precision welds
