Disposable Argon Cylinders

Disposable Argon Cylinders offer a convenient, compact source of argon shielding gas for light and occasional TIG or MIG welding. Part of our argon gas range, these small cylinders are ideal for quick repairs, short welding runs and mobile work where a full-size refillable bottle isn’t necessary.

Our disposable argon cylinders are designed for users who need high-quality argon gas in small, manageable quantities. They are particularly useful for:

  • Occasional TIG or MIG welding on small components
  • On-site and mobile repairs where space is limited
  • Test pieces, prototypes and training environments
  • Hobby welders trying argon welding before upgrading to refillable bottles

Despite their compact size, these cylinders contain the same high-grade argon gas you’d expect from our larger Refillable Argon Cylinders. You still benefit from a stable arc, clean weld pool and reduced contamination when working on stainless steel, aluminium and other non-ferrous materials.

Disposable bottles are a smart choice if you:

  • Only weld occasionally and don’t want to commit to a deposit on a large cylinder
  • Need a lightweight, portable solution to keep in a van or small workshop
  • Want a backup argon source alongside your main refillable cylinder

As your usage grows and you start to weld more regularly, you can move naturally into our Refillable Argon Cylinders category or even consider Argon Manifolded Cylinder Packs for higher-volume production work.

Because disposable cylinders are still pressurised gas containers, they must be stored, handled and disposed of safely. For best practice, please read our Safety & Storage guidelines and refer to the Argon SDS included within our Safety Data Sheets.
