Designed for MIG/GMAW welding of carbon, carbon manganese, and low-alloy steels, the Ferromaxx gases give superb weld quality and excellent penetration together with minimal spatter and low fume levels.
Fewer rejects
Ferromaxx gases are easy to use and tolerant to variations in weld parameter settings. This improves weld quality and means fewer rejects.
A better working environment
Because ozone is a health hazard which cannot always be removed by fume extraction equipment, Air Products has concentrated on developing gases that give low ozone exposure levels. The result—a gas that provides a better working environment as well as improved productivity and fewer rejects.
"At Hendrick Motorsports, we're constantly searching for speed and 'the winning edge.' Since switching from 75/25 to Ferromaxx Plus gas, we've seen considerably less spatter and odor, faster travel speeds, and a shinier, cleaner bead profile." —Eddie Dickerson Director of Chassis Engineering Hendrick Motorsports, Harrisburg, North Carolina (View PowerPoint Presentation, 5624 K) |
Ferromaxx Plus
the best gas for steel
 Ferromaxx Plus MIG/GMAW fillet weld in 1/2-in. thick ASTM A36 steel |
| |
 |
improves weld quality and reduces rejects; excellent penetration characteristics and tolerant to variations in weld parameter settings |
| |
 |
higher productivity: up to 19% increase in manual weld speeds when compared with conventional mixtures; also reduces cleanup times due to minimal spatter and a smooth, flat weld finish |
| |
 |
cuts cylinder stocks; suitable for all material thicknesses and all consumable types (solid, metal, and flux cored wires) |
| |
 |
protects the work environment due to minimal ozone generation |
Ferromaxx 7
the thin steel specialist
 Ferromaxx 7 MIG/GMAW fillet weld in 1/8-in. thick ASTM A36 steel |
| |
 |
improves weld quality and reduces rejects; excellent weld pool control, particularly at low voltages on thin sheet materials and for positional welding |
| |
 |
cuts post-weld cleaning times; ultralow spatter levels and excellent pulsed arc characteristics |
Ferromaxx 15
the reliable all-rounder
 Ferromaxx 15 MIG/GMAW butt weld in 1/2-in. thick ASTM A36 steel |
| |
 |
improves weld quality and reduces rejects; excellent penetration characteristics and tolerant to variations in weld parameter settings |
| |
 |
cuts cylinder stocks; suitable for all material thicknesses |
| |
 |
protects the work environment due to minimal ozone generation |
