About
It is widely understood that there must be a minimal welding gas flow rate to ensure adequate weld pool protection, however, there is a common misconception that using more gas is always better!

In this webinar we will look at the various issues - financial, quality and environmental that excess welding gas flow rate causes. This session is ideal for those in the metal fabrication industry who are looking to optimise weld quality and/or reduce overall their welding cost base. We will look at Air Products’ consultative Gastrak® service which involves working with welding customers to identify potential sources of welding gas leaks or excessive consumption and install a sustainable solution to mitigate this.

You will learn:
1. Why setting the optimum welding gas flow rate is important
2. Common misconceptions regarding welding gas flow rates
3. The impact on weld quality of setting too high a flow rate
4. How Air Products can work with you to control the flow whilst improve quality and saving money – on average 30%
5. A practical demonstration in a welding workshop of how Air Products’ Gastrak® service works.
