At WestBay, we supply high-performance welding gases that power critical industrial processes. While using oxygen is less common in modern welding, it still plays a role. Trusted by welders, fabricators, and metalworkers, oxygen is essential for cutting, water treatment and metal heat treating.
Powering Precision in Welding
Oxygen increases the combustion rate, allowing welders to reach temperatures exceeding 5,000°F. This intense heat ensures clean cuts, efficient bonding, and reduced waste. Whether it’s used in small-scale fabrication shops or large industrial settings, oxygen’s reliability helps welders achieve consistent, high-quality results.
Safe and Efficient Use
Working with oxygen requires careful attention to safety. Because oxygen accelerates combustion, even a small leak can create a fire hazard when near oil, grease, or flammable materials. Welders must always handle cylinders with care, store them upright in well-ventilated areas, and use regulators and hoses specifically rated for oxygen service. Proper training and maintenance are key. Checking for leaks, using compatible fittings, and keeping the work area clean all help ensure that oxygen is used safely and efficiently.
