MIG Welding Settings Chart: Voltage, Wire Speed & Gas Guide
The best MIG welding settings match voltage, wire feed speed, and shielding gas to your metal thickness and wire diameter. For mild steel using 75/25 Argon-CO₂, thin metal (1–2 mm) typically runs at 15–17 volts and 90–150 IPM. Thicker sections (3–6 mm) require 17–21 volts with higher wire speed. If your machine is set correctly, […]
