2. Shielding gas - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shielding_gas

   A-25 (25% argon/75% helium) is used for nonferrous base when higher heat input and good weld appearance are needed. A-50 (50% argon/50% helium) is used for nonferrous metals thinner than 0.75 inch for high-speed mechanized welding. A-75 (75% argon/25% helium) is used for mechanized welding of thick aluminium. Reduces weld porosity in copper. [14]

3. Gas metal arc welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_metal_arc_welding

   Spray transfer GMAW. Gas metal arc welding (GMAW), sometimes referred to by its subtypes metal inert gas (MIG) and metal active gas (MAG) is a welding process in which an electric arc forms between a consumable MIG wire electrode and the workpiece metal(s), which heats the workpiece metal(s), causing them to fuse (melt and join).

4. Oxy-fuel welding and cutting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxy-fuel_welding_and_cutting

   Welding regulators, unlike simpler LPG heating regulators, retain their outlet (hose) pressure gauge and do not rely on the calibration of the adjustment knob. The cheaper single-stage regulators may sometimes omit the cylinder contents gauge, or replace the accurate dial gauge with a cheaper and less precise "rising button" gauge.

5. Arc welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc_welding

   Arc welding power supplies can deliver either direct (DC) or alternating (AC) current to the work, while consumable or non-consumable electrodes are used. The welding area is usually protected by some type of shielding gas (e.g. an inert gas), vapor, or slag. Arc welding processes may be manual, semi-automatic, or fully automated.

6. Gas cylinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_cylinder

   The regulator is adjusted to control the downstream pressure, which will limit the maximum flow of gas out of the cylinder at the pressure shown by the downstream gauge. For some purposes, such as shielding gas for arc welding, the regulator will also have a flowmeter on the downstream side.

7. Pressure regulator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_regulator

   Oxy-fuel welding and cutting processes require gases at specific pressures, and regulators will generally be used to reduce the high pressures of storage cylinders to those usable for cutting and welding. Oxygen and fuel gas regulators usually have two stages: The first stage of the regulator releases the gas at a constant pressure from the ...
