6G MIG Welding Technique

6G TIG roots with MIG fills and caps are common in shop fabrication. We've gone over the TIG roots in several videos, however we have never touched on techniques for the MIG fills and caps. In today's video we are going to show you how to fill and cap a 6" pipe in a single weave pass with GMAW.

Talk with Bob, Jason and Mancub!

Mr Bob... As a full time 50+ hr a week shop fabricator & welder for 9 yrs now (I'm 50...was a licensed plumber for 25 yrs) I just want to thank you for all the great vids! I learn something new on every one!....but... At our shop, we love us the aluminum! That damn ole steel is heavy, dirty, & heavy! Thanks again & keep burning em!

"Weld level to the floor"...…. great idea ! Why didn't I think of that ? There's always something new to learn. THNX.

[Eric-fscc]

I'm here for the farts and I wasn't disappointed

[CraigArndt]

That right there is one of the best tips I've learned, even with the floor. Instead of having the bead pool up on me, weaving with the floor makes sense. Thanks, enjoyed this very much.

The fill and cap for drain pipe can be run top down from 12 oclock to 3 and 9 oclock. Then from 9 and 3 oclock to 6 oclock position all downhill. High pressure is a different method for sure. Great video! Short arc pipe welding is challenging in any position, but a lot of fun, as well as great learning on out of position.

I thought that was my dog farting. I ran him outside to go potty and he looked at me like I was crazy.

Bobs so good at welding he is shrouded in his own shielding gas. 💨

[weldHAGOJIBI]

It's also a great class today. It's great.👍

[richardsolomon]

Nice job Bob, nice crisp sounding machine. Great video

[elijah]

Yesterday was the last day of school and I miss welding

[harrykt]

Could you make a video about Stainless Mig welding please

[jvmiller]

I love that machine! I had mine about a year now. A real review from real welder 20+ years is those green machines rock and the 221 is so and AC/DC tig Yes I paid full price and don't work for Everlast

[omarfarsha]

Another fine video. I really like that Everlast welder. More videos please!

Nice when fabing gravity feed pipe in the shop

[Adam-lvuu]

increase half a volt to flatten your bead 15 more wire speed and increase your travel speed. if you drop your wire speed too low you risking not punching in there very well. got to remember this is pipe and you're using .035 wire.

[kerbalgaming]

@0:52 "come on old man you can do this" *FART* 😂😂😂 heard a fart just before this, and just after.
Legit thought it was my dog, then i realised my dog aint in the room! Jumped back and its in the video 😂🤣😂🤣

[juancarloscalderoncastillo]

should do the root pass to see the technique, the filling and finishing are easier to do, there is the detail

[workwillfreeyou]

Great job Bob. I'd like to see this with Dual Shield and Metal Core wires. Thanks.

[chipeckhoff]

Love your videos! I do have to say I did hear you fart twice while welding the first pass

Pará soldar tubo dé 15mm en posición 6g Mig es más difícil o fácil? Cuál sería la técnica ideal pará hacerlo sin perforación.. gracias
