Features
- Airgas operates its own dedicated blending facilities as well as maintains a national network of blending technology to ensure accurate, consistent production.
Applications
- Helium is often used as a Shielding Gas in Welding, for its inert properties such as providing ideal arc temperatures for welding materials with high-heat conductivity.
- In heat-treating processes, during manufacturing or metal fabrication, Helium is added to furnace atmospheres to produce stronger, more durable parts.
- Helium at cryogenic temperatures is essential for operating MRI and NMR machinery.
- Helium is required for determining sample content and characteristics as a carrier gas in gas chromatography.
- In retail, Helium is used to give balloons a lift.
Safety
- Always use in accordance with the Safety Data Sheet (SDS)
- Cylinder must be stored and used in an upright, secured position in a well-ventilated or monitored area.
- Always follow local fire code requirements when storing gas cylinders.
