Stargon™ Blends

STARGON™ CS & SS: SHIELDING GAS & WELDING GAS MIXTURES

At Linde, we offer two different Stargon™ blends, Stargon CS and Stargon SS. Stargon CS blend is a precise mixture of argon (Ar), carbon dioxide (CO2) and oxygen (O2) and is a universal shielding gas for carbon steel welding applications. Stargon SS blend is a carefully controlled blend of argon, carbon dioxide and nitrogen that is designed for joining a wide variety of stainless steels. Find out more about these two blends below and see if they’re right for your operations.

MIXTURE USED FOR SDS
Stargon CS This blend is a universal shielding gas for joining all types of carbon steel and can be used in GMAW with all modes of metal-transfer. It produces good arc characteristics and excellent weld mechanical properties. Mixtures of argon, oxygen, and arbon dioxide SDS E-6790 (Stargon CS)
Stargon SS This blend is designed for joining a wide variety of stainless steels. It is well-suited for all-position welding as it can be used with all types of metal transfer. Stargon SS blend produces excellent quality welds when joining light gauge material with short-circuiting transfer and offers cost savings when compared with the high-helium content gases currently used today.
