11b Is Argon Gas Necessary For Permanent Jewelry Welding? ⚡️ Update and Info by Stones And Findings

In this video, I debate about the controversial question: Is Argon Gas Necessary For Permanent Jewelry Welding? I get asked this question multiple times a day, and today, I'm sharing my thoughts and experiences. I also discuss an official letter from Sunstone Engineering, the makers of the leading Orion series of welders.

Over a year ago, I demonstrated how to set up argon gas for micro welding, including connecting the regulator, performing welds with and without argon, and even refilling the tank. Since then, I've done more research and have some new insights to share.

Key points covered in the video:
- The role of argon gas in reducing oxidation and improving weld quality.
- How argon gas affects the power settings needed for secure welds.
- When argon gas is beneficial, especially for thicker metals.
- The official letter from Sunstone Engineering on the use of argon gas in welding.

So, do you use argon gas in your permanent jewelry welding? ⚡ If so, what differences have you noticed in the quality of your welds compared to welding without it? 😮Share your experiences below!

Thank you so much for the update! I purchased an Argon tank and regulator after doing permanent jewelry for the last 6 months. I was told by an experienced welder that it was absolutely necessarily. After having a handful of welds break from a set of new jump rings, I thought that might be the answer I was looking for. Have yet to use it at an event due to the inconvenience of the size and weight of the tank for travel.

This is absolutely amazing news Dana! I've been struggling in looking and importing argon gas but no avail because of safety restriction here in UAE. I'm so elated to hear this great news. I always love watching your videos for being so courageous and transparent to your customers and viewers! 💓

Thanks for this informative video and all of the information. Do you use argon each time for your clients? If not, how do you pick when to use and when not to use?
