Argon Gas (Ar) is the most common noble gas in the earth’s atmosphere. It is obtained from oxygen gas produced in air separation plants and used alone or in special mixtures as an inert gas (IG55 and Ig 541) primarily for the welding Industry.

‣ Aerospace & Aircraft

Argon is a versatile industrial gas used in welding applications, such as the welding of specialty alloys, and in the production of light bulbs and lasers. As an inert gas, it can also be used to provide an oxygen- and nitrogen-free environment for heat-treating processes.

‣ Automotive & Transportation Equipment

Argon is used in combination with other gases to weld auto parts, frames, mufflers, and other automotive parts. It also provides an oxygen and nitrogen-free environment for annealing processes and is an essential component in airbags.

‣ Metal Production

Used to maintain temperature and consistency of composition, argon prevents oxidation during processing. It also flushes out carbon monoxide and reduces chromium losses during the Argon-Oxygen Decarburization stainless steel refining process.

‣ Welding & Metal Fabrication
