Welding & Welding Supplies

From welding to cutting and brazing, fabrication runs on gas. Having the proper blend of gases to get the right heat, the correct shield from atmospheric contaminants, or increase your arc stability is paramount for a fabrication shop that turns out high-quality parts. We’re here to make sure you have the right gas at the right time to keep your shop running smoothly.

Related Industry Gases

Argon

Used as a shielding gas, and to create a stable arc while arc welding.

Acetylene

The fuel in the oxy-acetylene torch. Acetylene burns extremely hot, giving you the tool to weld and shape metal.

Oxygen

Every fire needs oxygen to burn, and the hotter it is the more oxygen it needs.

Carbon Dioxide

Often combined with argon to create a shielding gas to prevent atmospheric contamination in gas/metal arc welding.

Helium

Used as a shielding gas to reduce oxidation in high heat applications, like aluminum, stainless steel, and copper welding.

Nitrogen

Used as an assist-gas in plasma and laser cutting, and as a component for shielding in stainless steel welding.

BlueShield

Custom-blended shielding gases that have become industry-standard for an array of welding types due to their performance and consistency.

Arcal

Custom-blended and optimized shielding gases for all your welding needs. The Arcal line features: Improved productivity and quality; reduced fume emissions and spatter; optimized packaging with more gas in every cylinder (XPR packaging); increased safety with the tulip cap protecting the valve at all times; and better maneuverability of the cylinder with the protective cap.
