Helium is a naturally occurring noble gas and is one of the lightest elements. It is colourless, odourless, non-flammable and chemically inert under normal conditions.
These properties make helium useful in applications where a stable, non-reactive gas is required. Industrial helium can be used as a shielding gas for selected welding applications, as a tracer gas for leak detection and in certain laboratory, analytical and electronics processes.
Helium is also an important specialty gas because some applications require a high level of gas purity or controlled gas quality.
The correct helium specification depends on the application, equipment and process requirements. Before ordering, it is useful to confirm whether you require standard industrial helium or a higher-purity specification.
