dhmiltoo9 Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Hello, i'm looking at buying a mig welder, never had one before so would need gas bottle etc. How much does it cost to buy/ rent/refill for the gas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballcock Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Welcome to the forum, You can buy gasless mig welders which use a suitable wire. As for what is available in your location I am unable to help but best of lick with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Not many folks on here from California so we'd only be guessing at prices where you are. I'd find a local welding/fabrication supplies and ask them all your questions or try Pirate4x4 as they're very American based. Gasless MIGs are fairly nasty, don't do it.

MNG196 Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 I use the argon and helium gases for MIG welding. The most popular gases used for a MIG welder. https://www.auditpowertools.com/what-gas-is-used-for-mig-welding/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
