Argon is a versatile, inert gas used in the production of light bulbs and lasers, and in welding applications. It is also used in vacuum carburizing and other heat treating processes. Assembly plants use argon to weld auto components such as exhaust systems, seats, and axles because of its ability to provide the necessary atmosphere needed to produce adequate welds with any material.

Helium is used as a lift gas to purge and pressurize liquid hydrogen fuel systems. It can also be used to test radiator heat exchangers and torque converters to ensure they are leak tight. As an inert gas, helium can be mixed with argon to improve shielding gas characteristics for laser welding. It is also used in high-pressure gas quenching, with low-pressure carburizing to minimize distortion in components.

As a component of heat treating atmosphere, hydrogen reacts with oxygen to produce a bright finish on steel parts. When used as an alternate fuel, industrial hydrogen fuel powers life-support systems and computers in aerospace environments. In fuel cell or directly in an internal combustion engine, hydrogen also plays a key role in reducing undesirable emissions.

Nitrogen is ideal for processes like tire curing, autoclave inerting, and heat treating for various transportation components. It is also used as an assist gas for laser cutting and enhances plasma-cutting processes. It can also be used in autoclaves, to shrink-fit engine parts and to manufacture electronic components for seats, stereo systems, anti-lock brakes and air conditioning.

Oxygen is used in foundries that make automotive coatings, as a plasma cutting gas, an assist gas for laser cutting, and is sometimes added in small quantities to shielding gases. Liquid oxygen has been used in many bipropellant vehicles since the 1940s. In metal fabrication, the flame temperature and intensity depends on the fuel gases used and oxygen mixing ratio.
