I am having trouble igniting the weld material. What’s wrong?

0

• Are you using the starting material that is packed at the bottom of the weld metal tube? • The starting material supplied has a lower ignition temperature. The ignition temperature of the weld metal is too high to ignite with the flint igniter. • What are you using to ignite the starting material? • The T320 flint igniter is the only recommended tool for the job. A torch, match, or lighter will not get hot enough to ignite the starting material. • If the weld metal tube has been subjected to excessive vibration, the starting material and weld metal could intermix. If this happens, use a new tube.
