Stainshield TIG

Benefits

• Easier and faster to use than argon, the small amount of hydrogen helps to scavenge any oxygen from around the weld area, producing a bright, clean weld and smooth surface finish
• The hydrogen content of the shielding gas stiffens the welding arc and increases the fluidity of the weld pool, making it easier to produce a neat, tidy weld bead
• Improved fluidity increases welding speed compared to argon, resulting in lower weld costs

Applications summary

• Developed for TIG welding austenitic stainless steel in a wide range of thicknesses
• Suitable when purging pipework, producing a high-quality internal finish
• Can be used in a wide range of applications from TIG welding medical piping applications to welding stainless steel kitchens
• The hydrogen content produces a more controllable arc which is easier and faster to use. Ideal in applications such as high-quality pipework for the semi-conductor industry.
