Argon

Used in the production, processing and fabrication of a range of metals, Argon is one of the most common welding gases and is ideal for light to medium fabricators and home enthusiasts.

Inert to all materials at all temperatures and pressures, argon allows easy formation of a welding arc without reacting with the metal being welded. Now available in E and D size from selected stores in Adelaide.
