The Blast of Shielding Gas Exiting a MIG Torch at a Weld Start Causes Problems:

1) Significant Shielding Gas Waste

2) Inferior Weld Quality Since Air is "Sucked" Into The Shielding Gas Stream

Our patented Gas Saver System (GSSTM) eliminates these problems and saves from 30 to 60% of total gas use! 

How much gas is wasted on each weld start?  Up to 6 times the physical gas delivery hose volume!  Why? When welding stops, gas continues to flow into the delivery hose and pressure may rise to 25 times what is needed; See Details.

A Truck Box Manufacturer Saves  63% Shielding Gas Simply by Installing Our Gas Saver System. 

Testimonial: Finding 63% Shielding Gas Savings With Our "Gas Saver System," a Truck Box Manufacturer Purchased 25 Systems for All Their MIG Welders . 

They Recently Added New MIG Machines and Asked for 10 More of the "Magic Hose!"   

 

 

 

 

2.7 Cylinders Needed With Standard Hose

Test Details: With a standard gas delivery hose 236 doors were welded with one cylinder.  With our Gas Saver System installed and with no other changes 632 doors were welded with one cylinder! 

Or to weld 632 doors with the old system they would have used 2.7 cylinders of shielding gas versus 1 with the GSS !

  1. What is the Ideal Gas Delivery System?

  2. Why is Extra Gas Needed at MIG Weld Starts?

  3. How does Automatic Flow Compensation Work and Why a Minimum of 25 psi Regulator Pressure is Needed to Achieve it?

  4. What is the Payback of the Gas Saver System? Note: When Adding New Welding Machines, it Could Be Immediate!- -See "Just Do It !"

  5. Why do Simple Orifices Not Work to reduce gas waste?  Why they give a false savings impression!

"Welding Magazine," in  January 2008 summarized the benefits of our Gas Saver System

 

The American Welding Society's  "Welding Journal," in April 2007 published an article that defined what "Automatic Flow Compensation" was about and the benefits of our Gas Saver System in maintaining this important feature.  It defines why a minimum of 25 psi   is needed (SEE WHY.)
