ALLWAYS weld uphill. as in start at the botom and weld up. it is a WELL known fact that welding uphill is stronger.
and I use a U for up hill![]()
same... i don't know if it really makes much of a difference as long as your penetrating.fiveinchbodydrop said:i ve heard uphill and i do it that way now, but ive done two downhill and never found a fault... for whatever thats worth
o ok so you dont pull the C weld you push it ok ...see everyone has diff ways ...1lowGMC said:When ever I go uphill on a vertical weld, the pool gets thick at the bottom and thin uptop. So I do downhill, and have no problems. On horizontal welds I always push the weld using a C motion. I'm using a mig/gas 220v
