Argoshield Lite for Tig?

[EddyP]

Just bought a TIG, and was wondering if the bottle of Argoshield lite i've got will be ok for welding some mild steel up, no plans to do stainless yet, and its a DC only TIG so no plans for ally either.

If its not ok, what should I use, and anyone know where to get it in the midlands rental free?

Thanks

Pure Argon only for TIG is the short answer. Doesn't matter what the material is. As for rental free, the Midlands seems like a good area for this. Check out the gas rental thread (not sure exactly where it is I'm afraid) or PM Gasman who may be able to put you in touch with an outlet.
