For welders in Ontario and Quebec looking to escape the cycle of monthly cylinder rental fees, the New Cylinder 80ft3 with Argon Fill is the ultimate solution. This high-quality steel cylinder comes pre-filled with pure Argon gas, making it an immediate asset to your workshop. Designed for both the serious hobbyist and the professional fabricator, this "owner bottle" allows you to pay once for the cylinder and only pay for refills thereafter, significantly reducing your long-term operating costs.
Argon is the most versatile shielding gas in the welding industry. It is the primary gas required for TIG welding (GTAW) on all materials, including carbon steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. Additionally, it is essential for MIG welding (GMAW) aluminum and is often used in specialized MIG brazing applications. By owning an 80 cubic foot cylinder, you ensure you have a reliable supply of this critical gas without the logistical headache of managing lease contracts.
The 80cf form factor is widely regarded as the "sweet spot" for many users. Standing approximately 37 inches tall with a 7-inch diameter, it is compact enough to fit on almost any standard welding cart, including those designed for smaller portable machines. Weighing in at roughly 26kg (approx. 57 lbs) when filled, it is manageable for a single person to move around the shop or load into a vehicle for transport, unlike heavy industrial K or T cylinders.
Safety and compliance are paramount with high-pressure gas. This cylinder is manufactured to strict DOT/TC specifications, ensuring it is legal and safe for use and transport within Canada. It arrives equipped with a standard CGA 580 valve, the North American standard for inert gases like Argon, Nitrogen, and Helium, ensuring compatibility with your existing flowmeter or regulator. A heavy-duty screw-on cap is included to protect the valve during transport, preventing accidental damage.
Please Note: Due to Dangerous Goods (Hazmat) shipping regulations regarding pressurized gases, this filled cylinder is available for shipping exclusively to addresses within Ontario and Quebec.
