Welding Gases

Arrange welding, cutting and shielding gases alongside your SGL Hire equipment through the Sultani Gas group. Gas is quoted separately so the cylinder, gas mixture and account arrangement match the job.

Gas is not automatically included with equipment hire

Tell us the welding process, material, wire or electrode, expected use and cylinder arrangement. We will confirm the correct gas, cylinder availability, regulator and price before delivery or collection.

Choosing the correct gas

The correct gas depends on the process, base material, thickness, wire or electrode, transfer mode and required finish. Using an unsuitable mixture can affect arc stability, penetration, spatter, oxidation and weld quality. Send the job details with your hire enquiry and we will help identify the appropriate supply.
