Helium Gas

Helium is used to test critical automotive parts such as radiator heat exchangers, air conditioning components, fuel tanks and torque converters to ensure they meet quality specifications. It is also used in combination with argon as a source of inflation in a growing number of airbags.

HEAT TREATING FOR THE AUTOMOTIVE & TRANSPORTATION EQUIPMENT INDUSTRY

Driven to provide the strength you need

When it comes to finding processes that strengthen your automotive metals, Two Star Gases can help your business race ahead. Heat treating enhances the strength and durability of metals, and we’ll work with you to build the toughest driving machines possible.

Not only that, we can help you find ways to heat treat efficiently, so you never have to choose between cost and quality.

INDUSTRIAL GASES & APPLICATIONS FOR AUTO PARTS MANUFACTURING

Making quality vehicles from quality parts

Customers today expect more from their cars — more power, more safety, more comfort — and less maintenance. And at Two Star Gases, we can help you exceed their expectations. Because when each auto part is manufactured well, your finished product delivers the perfect blend of engineering, safety and technology. And Two Star Gases gases can help you manufacture high quality parts for your automotive needs, from lighting and electronics to air bags and climate control.

Helium is used to achieve cryogenic temperatures of -451 degrees required for superconducting magnets in MRIs and NMRs, allowing the capture of high-resolution images of internal organs and tissues.

Cryogen & Mri Services

Preventing emergencies before they happen

At Two Star Gases, we offer industry-leading service capabilities to address compressor systems, vacuum integrity, cryogen meter calibration and repair-to-system elements. Our standard and system maintenance services include everything from cryogen transfills and preventative maintenance to electronic troubleshooting and parts exchange. And with emergency 24/7 services, we’ll always be there when you need us — so you can deliver to those who need you.

Helium's inert properties at arc temperatures make it an ideal gas for welding materials with high heat conductivity such as aluminum, stainless steel, copper and magnesium alloys. Helium is also used in heat treating processes such as gas quenching and in furnace atmospheres to produce parts with higher tolerance and improved quality.
