Cryogenic Gases for Launch Systems
For launch systems and ground support equipment, MATHESON’s fleet of portable onsite supply options, ISO containers, and tube trailers support all aspects of launches, including propulsion, pressurization, purging, and inerting. Aerospace companies choose MATHESON for its industry leading, globally capable helium supply in all purities, along with liquid and gaseous oxygen, nitrogen, nitrous oxide, and hydrogen. MATHESON solutions are designed to ensure safety, repeatability, and mission assurance for spaceflight operations.
Propulsion and Secondary Thruster Gases
MATHESON is a recognized leader in high purity, rare, and specialty gases used for propulsion in satellites, including xenon, krypton and argon. Xenon’s low ionization potential makes it a great propellant, however, krypton or argon can offer cost savings. Whatever your preferred satellite propulsion gas is, MATHESON has the gas purification, analytical verification, and rare gas supply reliability to keep your satellite moving.
Additive Manufacturing
3D printing and additive manufacturing facilitate the creation and prototyping of complex shapes, making it a valuable resource for the aerospace industry. MATHESON has the expertise to provide the right gas and equipment to support your additive manufacturing process. MATHESON is one of the largest producers of argon, nitrogen, and specialty gas blends in the US. Our proprietary NANOCHEM® solutions for gas purification are customized for the demanding applications of additive manufacturing. NANOCHEM® purifiers are capable of reducing oxygen, moisture, and hydrocarbons to single-digit ppm or ppb. Our engineering expertise and custom designed purification products are perfect for your NADCAP-aligned additive manufacturing processes for titanium, nickel superalloys, and aluminum alloys.
Helium for Lifting
MATHESON has international and US supply sources for helium supply reliability for your lifting application. Whether you are lifting weather balloons or airships, MATHESON can provide helium in ISO containers, tube trailers, 12-packs, cylinders, or whatever the job requires.
Welding Gases, Welding Supplies, & Filler Metals
MATHESON is a leading supplier of welding gases and supplies in the US, with local stores, and AWS Certified Welding Sales Representatives. We can provide high-purity argon, argon/helium blends, and other shielding gases essential for GTAW and GMAW of critical components. We support titanium welding with 99.999% argon, trailing shields, purge systems, and support for welding done in an argon glovebox, and we have titanium filler metals, as well as other alloys. In addition to local delivery and expertise, we have vending solutions available to provide your personnel with easy, controlled access to the supplies they need.
Heat Treating Gases for Aerospace Components
MATHESON supports aerospace parts and component manufacturers with nitrogen, argon, hydrogen, and other gases and chemicals for heat treat furnace atmospheres and inerting. MATHESON has the necessary expertise to help end users with NFPA 86 requirements for class C furnaces, ten packs of DMF acetylene for vacuum carburizing solutions and all the gases needed for annealing, normalizing, quenching, hardening, decarburization, nitriding, and other heat treat processes. Our quality program is second to none, and as a single source supplier we can provide the traceability to support NADCAP heat treat compliance. Our heat treat specialists have the expertise to assist manufacturers with gas delivery systems and equipment as well as process and equipment troubleshooting to ensure consistent mechanical properties and process repeatability.
