The Process Follows the Project

MIG vs TIG vs Stick Welding

Customers sometimes ask for a welding process by name, but the best process is usually determined by material, thickness, joint design, access, finish and where the welding will happen.

Clear scope, the right process and direct communication help keep custom work practical from the first conversation through fabrication and field work.

MIG welding

MIG welding is widely used for fabrication because it can be productive and versatile across many common steel applications. It is often well suited to shop fabrication where speed, repeatability and clean setup matter.

TIG welding

TIG welding offers precise heat control and is commonly associated with stainless steel, aluminum and work where appearance or fine control matters. It is generally slower than MIG but can be the right choice for detail-sensitive work.

Stick welding

Stick welding remains useful for structural and field applications, particularly where portability and real-world job-site conditions matter. The exact electrode and procedure depend on the material and requirements.

Why the process depends on the project

Fulcher performs MIG, TIG and stick welding. The process is selected according to the material, joint, access, environment and result required, so the finished repair or fabricated component drives the decision rather than the process name alone.
