The Importance of Shielding Gases

The Importance of Shielding Gases

by | Welding

It’s all about integrity – not the welder’s, the weld’s. If you want a weld that is structurally sound – both now and in the long run – you want to implement a welding process that is gas-shielded. The weld pool or puddle is, during its creation, a very malleable and...

Argon-CO2 Welding

by | Supplies, Welding

Argon and Carbon Dioxide are a match made in welding heaven. Argon is non-flammable and makes the ideal shielding gas for shielded arc welding. For aluminum, it is ideal all by itself, but for steel, carbon dioxide comes to its aid. The gas blend is shared at various...

Blended Gases For Stainless Steel Welding

by | Supplies, Welding

Blended gases provide their combined properties to optimize the shielding process of shielded arc welding. Argon-Carbon Dioxide provides adequate shielding for a wide range of shielded arc welding applications on non-stainless steel, but what do you use for stainless...
When to Use TIG Welding

When to Use TIG Welding

by | Welding

First off, let’s make a quick distinction between MIG (Metal Inert Gas) and TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding. The difference may seem obvious in their titles. One uses metal and the other, tungsten. However, the form of those materials in the two processes is...
