What natural gasses used for welding?

What type of gas is used or welding?
It depends on what welding process is being used and what type of metal is being welded. When Oxy-Fuel Welding, Acetylene is the most popular. MAPP gas and Propane are also used. With the GMAW (MIG) process Argon, CO2 and Oxygen gasses, in mixtures or alone, are used. GTAW (TIG) gasses are almost always Argon and/or Helium. This is not all inclusive as new processes are being developed every day. Check with your welding material supplier for relevant info.
Which gases are used in normal welding process?
Depends on what you think of as normal welding. Gas welding use oxygen-acetylene. MIG/TIG use Argon. MAG, use an argon-something mix. Depending on what materials you are welding, there are some more options tha might be used.
Which two gases mixed and used as fuel in welding?
n - Oxygen and Acetylene are the original gasses that are used for welding/cutting. Newer mixtures are slowly replacing Acetylene as a fuel. These gasses don't always reach the temperatures attained by Acetylene. Us old-timers still prefer Acetylene.
Which welding process is used primarily for welding ferrous metals such as iron and steel?
I would say that SMAW (stick) is still the most widely used process. The GMAW (mig) process has gained a wide acceptance in construction and fabrication and may even have surpassed stick welding in many situations. Unfortunately with mig welding the machine has to be close to the welding site. Dragging a welding lead into and around fabrications is still much easier than moving a mig machine.

What is the process of underwater welding?
Underwater welding uses a special flux around the welding rod which produces gasses which form a bubble around the end of the rod ,excluding the water. It is difficult and never as strong, lacking penetration. It is only used when absolutly necessary.
Gas used in different types of welding would include what?
Gasses used in welding can include oxygen, acetylene, argon, helium, hydrogen, propane, MAPP gas, and others for special purposes. They may be grouped as oxidizers, fuels and shield gasses.
The most commonly used welding processes are?
There are a few commonly used welding process. The top used are shielded metal and arc welding.
What gasses commonly used for mig welding?
On steel a mixture of Argon and CO2 usually 75% to 25%
Why filler materials are used in welding process?
filler materials are used to fill the gap between the two job materials during the welding process
Which process uses an insert gas used for welding?
TIG welding uses Argon.
Why is the element argon important?
Argon, one of the Noble gasses, is used in manufacturing; in welding, lighting products, electronics.

What is resistance welding?
Arc. It's where electrical resistance is used to create the heat for the welding process.
