WELDING GAS MIXTURES

DSW^™ argon (Ar) and carbon dioxide (CO₂) blends are versatile mixtures for welding carbon, low-alloy and some stainless steels. By increasing the CO₂ content, you can increase weld penetration and bead wetting characteristics however, increased splattering may also occur. Ar and CO₂ blends can be used to join a wide range of material thicknesses using a variety of metal transfer modes.

We also offer a series of WELDING GAS MIXTURES Ar and oxygen (O₂) blends that are commonly used for conventional and pulsed spray transfer on clean (little to no scale or residual oil), plain carbon and stainless steel. These blends offer 1, 2 or 5% oxygen and provide good arc stability and low levels of spatter and fume. Higher levels of oxygen will also increase puddle fluidity that may make out-of-position welding more difficult.

We want you to get the most out of your industrial gas. Take a look at the blends below and contact us to find the one that’s right for your application.
