Line 102:
 
* Machine strikes arc between the work and a non-consumable tungsten electrode, melting a pool of metal
** TIG welding is the most similar welding process to soldering but there's still an important difference. In TIG welding you're melting the base material and allowing it to flow together, not only adding material on top
* Filler wire is added manually while moving the torch forming a weld bead that joins the metals
* Gas shields the weld pool and the tungsten from air exposure
