How do you tell if welding tanks are owned or rented?
Cylinders rented are not owned by the end customer. So, the cylinder isn’t theirs to sell! Look at the collar or shoulder of the cylinder. A company name will be stamped or engraved into the collar or shoulder of the tank.
What gas is used for MIG welding?
Argon
The four most common shielding gases used in MIG welding are Argon, Helium, Carbon Dioxide and Oxygen. Each provides unique benefits and drawbacks in any given application.
Does acetylene go bad?

What are two gases used in oxy-acetylene welding?
In oxyacetylene welding, the two gases used for producing flame are oxygen and acetylene . Oxygen is used to support and intensify combustion. It is generally prepared in factories by liquefying air and then separating it into its component parts by rectification.
What is torch welder?
The torch is the tool that the welder holds and manipulates to make the weld. It has a connection and valve for the fuel gas and a connection and valve for the oxygen, a handle for the welder to grasp, and a mixing chamber (set at an angle) where the fuel gas and oxygen mix, with a tip where the flame forms.
