I have a mig welder and I'm gonna be welding exhaust, making strut bars. Maybe welding in a cage once I get better, things like that. My friend told me to use 100% argon, I was just wondering what everyone else thought.

 

75%argon/25%co2. that is the mixture need to weld steel with GMAW

I'm new to welding but I'm gonna have to say yes, that is what the main topic is about. If I'm wrong someone correct me.

 

opps... your right, everyone is talking about reg steel, thought is was about ss...

ok then my question is can you use the same 75/25 mix for stainless steel?
