As a stable, non-reactive gas, argon offers various benefits to many industries. Welders use argon as a shielding gas for GMWA (gas metal arc welding) and GTAW (gas tungsten arc welding). Argon creates a protective barrier around the weld area, which prevents oxidation and contamination from oxygen and moisture. In doing so, it will ensure quality welds that are strong, especially when working with titanium, stainless steel, and aluminum.

Argon is also an important component in the production of several household products, including incandescent light bulbs, solar panels, and thermal insulation in double pain windows. It also acts as a preservative in numerous foods and products. The science and medical fields use argon gas for instruments, equipment, and surgeries while argon liquid is often used in scientific research for dark matter searches.
