ACM Series Shielding Gas Mixtures

To most users, a shielding gas is just there to protect the welding from the effects of oxygen and nitrogen in the atmosphere. While this is a key function of the shielding gas other benefits can be achieved by making the correct product choice. Some are metallurgical such as improved corrosion resistance, some are mechanical such as tougher weld metal, and some are financial such as reduced weld cost or improved productivity. Understanding what shielding gases are capable of delivering to your business can bring about considerable financial rewards and so provide you with a clear competitive edge.

Choose the right shielding gas from our ACM series for your needs.

The careful combinations of different gases from ESSENCE’S ACM/ ACOM series, often tailored to specific materials, can improve the performance in any welding situation by lower manufacturing costs through:

• improving the weld metal properties, such as strength, corrosion resistance and toughness
• changing the weld bead shape and size
• improving the weld quality, by reducing defect and scrap rates
• increasing welding speeds, lowering production times
• being easier to use, requiring less training while maintaining weld quality

All these performance enhancements can result from the use of the correct shielding gas which can be directly translated into tangible savings.
