ARCAL™ Speed

ARCAL™ Speed is the essential arc welding gas when weld time is a critical factor. Expertly mixed for high-travel speed and high-deposition rate MAG welding of carbon steels, it is ideal for automatic and robotic applications. Highly adaptable with low fume and spatter emissions that reduces post-welding operations, ARCAL™ Speed is an obvious choice when high productivity is needed without sacrificing quality.

ARCAL™ Force

ARCAL™ Force is our most powerful, ready-to-weld solution for MAG welding of heavy carbon steel structures. From earthmoving and agricultural equipment to bridge building and ship modules, ARCAL™ Force was engineered with heavy use in mind. No matter the surface – oxidised or contaminated, gapped or mismatched – ARCAL™ Force is ready for your toughest and most challenging welding applications.

Liquid ARCAL™ Mixer

Another exciting development within our ARCAL™ product range is Air Liquide’s premium liquid bulk gas delivery option aimed at medium- to high-volume consumers. ARCAL™ Mini-Bulk, is a liquid argon-based solution that uses our dynamic onsite mixer to produce a highly consistent shielding gas mixture. Air Liquide’s Dynamic mixer relies on robust preset mixing blocks, which are tamperproof have no moving parts nor does it require any electricity
