Here are some other gases that are effective in argon and CO2 argon mixtures.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Helium<\/strong>\u2013 Helium is a shielding gas used in MAG, TIG and MIG welding. It&#8217;s commonly utilized for copper, aluminum, high-alloy austenitic steels and non-austenitic steels.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hydrogen<\/strong>\u2013 Hydrogen is a root shielding gas that can be used as a combustion gas and carrier gas, depending on the application. It is also used in mechanized and automated MAG and TIG welding of high-alloy steel and Cr-Ni-Mo Austenitic stainless steel.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nitrogen<\/strong>\u2013 Nitrogen gas, often mixed with hydrogen, is used as a root shielding gas for austenitic stainless steels, high-alloy steels, low alloy steels and non-alloy steels.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Oxygen<\/strong>\u2013 Oxygen is a shielding gas used in aluminum, mild carbon, low alloy and stainless steel MAG and TIG welding.
