The “TIG” in TIG welding stands for Tungsten Inert Gas. But before it was named so, it was called “Heliarc” because of the helium that was dominantly used when the process was invented. But then someone discovered that argon worked better and so it was called “TIG” because inert gas could refer to either helium or argon.

Soon later, it was discovered that small additions of hydrogen worked well for some metals. The word “inert” no longer applied to the new discovery. Thus, the technical term for what used to be called TIG and Heliarc is now “GTAW” or Gas Tungsten Arc Welding.
