Good Morning!
Recently I've been considering (after nearly experiencing a CO2 shortage that would have shut us down) if it would be possible to substitute N2 for CO2 in a shielding gas mix. We currently use Aragon & CO2. We weld mostly A36 Plate and A500 tube.
Is this a bad idea? Why? What concerns should I be looking at while evaluating this? Has it been tried?
Any help would be great even if it is to point me at another resource
Thanks,
