What is Arcal gas?
ARCAL™ offers a full range of high-quality, ready-to-use shielding gas solutions. ARCAL™ gases are used in arc welding, root shielding, plasma cutting, TIG welding and MIG/MAG welding. Our pure gases and gas mixes are also available in bulk mixing installations.
What is Arcal force used for?
ARCAL™ Force is the powerful ready-to-weld solution for MIG welding of heavy carbon steel structures. From earth-moving and agricultural equipment to bridge building and ship modules, ARCAL Force has been designed with heavy use in mind.
What is Arcal flux?
ARCAL™ Flux is the carbon and stainless steel all-purpose shielding gas mixture designed specifically for FCAW and GMAW applications. ARCAL Flux has excellent short-circuit welding characteristics and is perfect for open root welding of pipe.
What is Arcal prime?
ARCAL™ Prime is the premier quality shielding gas for the most demanding welding situations. Designed for TIG (GTAW) and plasma welding of all materials including titanium, MIG (GMAW) welding of aluminum and copper alloys, ARCAL Prime is also a universal root shielding gas for all materials.
What is Arcal Chrome?
ARCAL™ Chrome is the simplest, most efficient gas mixture for all stainless steel MIG (GMAW) welding situations. This product is carefully selected to match with chromium – the key component of steels for corrosion resistance.
What shielding gas is used for MIG welding?
The four most common shielding gases used in MIG welding are Argon, Helium, Carbon Dioxide and Oxygen. Each provides unique benefits and drawbacks in any given application.
What is crystal argon?
Argon Crystals are a rare resource that drops in the Orokin Void tileset, Isolation Vault Bonus stage and from certain Assassination targets. Unlike other resources, Argon Crystals decay after a period of time. After this period the resources will disappear from the user’s inventory and must be re-acquired if needed.
Can I use CO2 for MIG welding?
The most common of the reactive gases used in MIG welding is Carbon Dioxide (CO2). It is the only one that can be used in its pure form without the addition of an inert gas. CO2 is also the least expensive of the common shielding gases, making it an attractive choice when material costs are the main priority.
Where can you buy argon gas?
Argon is the most abundant of the noble gases in the Earth’s atmosphere. It constitutes nearly 1% (0.94%) of the volume of air making it the third most abundant element in air after nitrogen and oxygen. Argon is also found in small traces in the Earth’s crust and ocean waters.
What gas is best for TIG welding?
Argon
Argon is the most commonly used inert gas for TIG welding projects. Since only a few gases can be used for TIG welding, argon is the most popular choice because it’s a versatile gas that can be used on a variety of metals including mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum.
