Portatig Cylinder (Refill)

Product Details

Argon is the third most abundant of the mixture of gases in the air, the concentration being approximately 0,94% by volume. It is inert, non-toxic, colourless, odourless and tasteless. Supplied in high pressure metal cylinders and manifolded cylinder packs.

APPLICATIONS:

The high temperature preparation, refining and fabrication of many materials must be carried out in an argon atmosphere. Argon is used as a shielding gas for GTAW applications and for GMAW of aluminium, in plasma jet torches and for purging applications when an inert atmosphere is required.

FEATURES & BENEFITS:

Argon is most commonly used as a shielding gas for arc welding, GTAW applications and for GMAW of aluminium.  It is inert, non-toxic, colourless, odourless and tasteless.  It can be used in pure form or as part of various mixtures. It is non-corrosive and can be used with any common metal provided the equipment is designed to withstand process pressure.

HAZARDS:

Compressed high pressure gas in cylinders

Asphyxiant in high concentrations
