welding, use a carbon dioxide gas for
welding or of which water contents is 0.005%
or less.)
•
For MAG welding, use a mixed gas for MAG
welding: argon gas with 5 % to 20 % of car-
bon dioxide gas.
•
For stainless MIG welding, use a mixed gas for
stainless MIG welding: argon gas with 2 % of
carbon dioxides gas.
•
In case of mixing two gases (carbon dioxide
and argon), use a gas mixer.
•
For argon gas for the mixed gas, make sure to
use high-purity argon gas for welding (99.9 %
purity or higher).
