- Cylinder colour (to AS 4484): Peacock blue body, shoulder and neck.
Description
-
Colourless, tasteless and odourless
-
Inert to all materials at all temperatures and pressures
-
Heavier than air, argon will collect in low-lying areas, ducts and drains
-
An asphyxiant
-
Lower thermal conductivity than most other gases
-
Low thermal conductivity acts as an insulator and will not transfer heat efficiently
Uses
-
All the major applications of argon are related to the production, processing and fabrication of metals.
-
The role of argon is nearly always to exclude atmospheric air from contact with metal alloys.
-
Purging gas to protect weld areas, such as the inside of pipes during welding is a good example.
-
Major component in most shielding gas mixtures for arc welding and cutting due to low ionising potential
-
The predominant gas used in shielding gases as it forms a very good shield due to the high density and total inertness
-
Used on a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials for welding and cutting
-
Fills the inter-space in double glazed windows
