Upgrade your welding setup with the 80cf Argon Cylinder, a robust steel tank that puts you in control of your gas supply. Sold as a complete package, this product includes a brand-new cylinder, a high-quality cylinder valve, a protective safety cap, and a full charge of pure Argon gas. This is an "owner" bottle, meaning you purchase the cylinder outright. Say goodbye to demurrage charges, rental contracts, and the hassle of returning leased tanks. Once you own it, you simply exchange it or have it refilled at your local gas distributor.
Pure Argon is the lifeblood of precision welding. This cylinder is indispensable for welders performing Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (TIG) on steel, stainless steel, chromoly, or aluminum. It creates a stable, clean arc and protects the molten weld pool from atmospheric contamination. For MIG welders, pure Argon is required for welding aluminum using a spool gun or push-pull system. Having an 80cf tank on hand ensures you have sufficient gas duration for substantial projects—typically providing 3 to 5 hours of continuous arc time depending on your flow rate settings (usually 15-20 CFH).
Built to last, this cylinder features a durable steel construction with a painted finish to resist corrosion in shop environments. It is fitted with a CGA 580 valve, which is the industry standard connection for Argon regulators. This ensures that whether you are using a Miller, Lincoln, ESAB, or generic flowmeter, your regulator will screw directly into this tank without the need for adapters. The cylinder is stamped with valid test dates, ensuring it meets all Transport Canada regulations for high-pressure vessels.
We take care to ship these cylinders safely. The included safety cap must be screwed on tight whenever the regulator is not attached to protect the valve stem. Because this item contains compressed gas, it is classified as hazardous material for shipping purposes. Consequently, we can currently offer shipping for this filled item only to customers located in Ontario and Quebec. Customers outside these regions should contact us for empty cylinder options or local distributor recommendations.
