Industry Argon Gas
Argon is an inert gas used to stabilise the arc and improve welding performance. It is widely used in Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) and is the primary gas for Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) in industrial applications.
DSW offers a range of argon gas products, including high-pressure gas cylinders and liquid argon in dewars, available in various sizes to meet different industrial requirements.
