Tig welding a bike frame made from alloy steel tubing.

.032″ wall tubing welded with both er70s-2 and weldmold 880 tig welding rod.
After welding, welds were put to the test with a big hammer. Most welds held up without fracturing except where the bottom bracket was welded to the tubes facing the rear.

  • Hi. Love your Vids. I have been wondering about a combination of a few Vids.
    Basically this bike frame with your tig Brazing and the scratch start tig set up.
    What do ya think? Is it do able?

  • Its great, it's tough, I enjoy watching, i do carbon tubes and carbon plates adhesive together w/9340. But l love watching! I have a factory jig fixture too l built with 8020 from ebay. My friend danny machines my stations that go on 8020. Thanks!

  • what do uoi usde then you done mention anything really and is it the same to extend a frame the same welds?

  • Can you have a bigger bead on the tubes so that I could have a much larger radius on the tubing? I would like to grind down later of course. How would you set it up for that?
