Can welders oxygen bottles be stored with propylene bottles?

No, it is not safe to store welders oxygen bottles with propylene bottles. Oxygen and propylene are combustible gases that can react violently if they come into contact with each other, leading to a fire or explosion. It is best to store these bottles separately in well-ventilated areas designated for gas storage.


Why would welders use helium and argon gases?

Welders use helium and argon gases because they provide a stable and inert environment during welding. Helium helps to increase heat input and penetration, especially in TIG welding, while argon helps to shield the weld pool from contaminants in processes like MIG welding. Mixing these gases can create a balance between heat input and weld quality.

What type of contaminants can result from welding?

Contaminants from welding can include fumes (particulates and gases), dust, metal fumes (from electrode materials), ozone, and UV radiation. These contaminants can pose health risks to welders if proper ventilation and personal protective equipment are not used.


Did welders use oxygen gas to weld anything?

Yes, oxygen is used in a process called oxygen- acetylene welding and brazing. Oxygen- acetylene welding mixes the two gases to producea flame to melt the metal to be welded. Afiller materialisfed into the "puddle" to form the weld. It is used normally on thin metals and cast metals. Brazing is much the same but the filler material is coated in a flux to keep impurities out of the weld. It is used on cast steels and cast iron.
