What is MIG/MAGS?

MIG/MAGS welding is a versatile process that is suitable for welding a large range of materials and thicknesses. It is used extensively in high productivity work and is the primary process for most manufactures using mild steel, for example the structural steel industry.

The process uses inert or active gas to shield an electrode wire, which is fed through an electrical arc that melts the wire, fusing together the target metal.
