CO2 vs Gas Mix Spatter Comparison
Pure CO2 creates significantly more spatter than Ar/CO2 mixtures due to irregular short-circuit transfer and higher oxidation potential. Ar/CO2 mixes provide smoother transfer modes and reduced spatter formation.
Upgrade
CORGON® 18
Why upgrade from CO2: CORGON 18 reduces spatter by 60-70% compared to pure CO2 while maintaining excellent penetration characteristics for steel welding.
