Thanks Chewie, It looks like the same rods are used for both gas and tig.

Getting older but no wiser! Just using bigger hammers.

Bronze welding with TIG is fine but you need Zinc free roods not the ones that you use for gas welding.
The Zinc boils off when tigging and ruins it.
I bought some rods a while back and it works fine. £80 per kilo though!!!

The ones I used are Sifsil no 968. or Sifsil No 32
Easier to buy over the net
If you search sif sil for tech data as to which type to use as the ones I use may not be suiatble for what you are doing.
Hope that helps.
