Professional TIG argon welding of AISI 304 and AISI 316 stainless steel. Railings, pool fencing, kitchen equipment, boat parts, plumbing. Clean seams with argon purging on the reverse side — no oxidation, no rust even after years. Mobile service with equipment across all of Cyprus.
TIG welding in an argon shield produces flat seams without slag, spatters, or burns. The weld looks like factory-made.
Argon purging on the reverse side prevents chromium oxide formation. The weld doesn't rust — the protective layer remains intact.
TIG allows precise control of heat and filler rod. Important for thin stainless steel — no burn-through, no warping.
Proper TIG welding preserves the corrosion resistance of stainless steel. The weld serves as long as the base metal.
Standard stainless steel. For indoor spaces or properties far from the sea. Cheaper than 316, but rusts from chlorides — sea salt, pool chemicals.
Marine-grade stainless steel with molybdenum. For Cyprus — by the sea, by the pool, on open balconies. Doesn't rust from chlorides. Slightly more expensive, but essential for outdoor use.
I clean the welding area with acetone or alcohol. Remove grease, oxide film, dirt. For stainless steel, cleanliness is critical — any contamination will show in the weld.
I supply argon to the reverse side of the weld through a tube or box. This protects the hot metal from oxygen — no oxidation, no chromium oxide, no rust.
I weld with a tungsten electrode in an argon shield. Add filler rod manually. Control heat with pulse mode. The weld is flat, clean, without slag or spatters.
Balcony railings, staircase railings, pool fencing. AISI 316 for outdoor use. TIG welding with argon purging — seams don't rust even after 10+ years.
Pool fencing, ladders, underwater lighting fixtures. Only AISI 316 — chlorine and salt destroy AISI 304. TIG welding with full argon purging.
Restaurant tables, sinks, shelving, exhaust hoods. AISI 304 is sufficient for kitchens. TIG welding — clean seams that are easy to sanitize.
Railings, ladders, fittings, fuel tanks. Only AISI 316 — seawater is extremely aggressive. TIG welding with argon purging — no rust, no leaks.
Water pipes, drainage, heating systems. AISI 304 or 316 depending on conditions. TIG welding — leak-proof seams without flux residue.
Furniture, decorative elements, enclosures, frames. Any design from stainless steel. TIG welding — seams look like jewelry.
Professional American TIG machine. Pulse mode, precise current control, AC/DC. For stainless steel I use DC with straight polarity. The machine holds the arc stably — even on thin metal.
High-purity argon for TIG welding. I use 10–15 liters per minute for shielding the electrode and 5–10 liters for purging the reverse side. Argon is expensive, but without it the weld rusts.
I use lanthanum (WL-15) or cerium (WC-20) tungsten electrodes. They're more stable than thorium and safer. Grind the tip to a sharp point for stainless steel.
For AISI 316, I use ER316L filler rods. For AISI 304 — ER308L. The filler rod must match the base metal — otherwise the weld will have different corrosion resistance.

I always purge the reverse side with argon. No oxidation, no rust. Many skip this to save argon — I never do.
Miller Dynasty 200 TIG machines, pure argon 99.99%, proper filler rods. Quality like in industrial production.
For coastal properties, pools, open balconies — only marine-grade 316. I never compromise on material.
I travel with TIG equipment and argon cylinder throughout Cyprus. Welding on site — by the pool, in marina, in kitchen.
TIG welding produces flat seams without slag, spatters, burns. The weld looks like factory-made.
