Calcium Carbide for Welding – Every Size, High Gas Yield, 70,000 Tons/Year
If you run a welding shop or an acetylene filling station, you don’t need a chemistry lecture. You need calcium carbide for welding that gives you steady gas flow, consistent yield, and no downtime because of bad batches.
We produce calcium carbide for welding in Inner Mongolia. Our annual output is 70,000 tons – not the biggest in China, but big enough to supply hundreds of acetylene plants across five continents. And we pack it in your choice of drum size, color, and markings.
Let me show you how we make your life easier.

Why Our Calcium Carbide Works for Welding
Acetylene welding needs a clean, predictable reaction. Too much dust clogs your generator. Too many oversized lumps slow down gas production. That’s why we offer calcium carbide for welding in seven different granulations – from fine 1‑4 mm to large 80‑120 mm. You pick the size that matches your generator’s feed system.
Gas yields are honest. We test every batch. For welding‑grade material, you can expect:
Not every size is perfect for every generator. The 7‑15 mm and 25‑50 mm ranges are the most popular for calcium carbide for welding – they feed smoothly and react within 60‑120 seconds. But if your equipment is different, we’ll supply the size you need.

One Container, Mixed Sizes – Save Freight
You don’t have to buy a full container of one size. Mix them. For example:
-
8 tons of 7‑15 mm for your main acetylene line
-
5 tons of 25‑50 mm for a backup generator
-
4 tons of 4‑7 mm for a small portable unit
All in one 20' container. We pack each size into different drum colors. Your warehouse team sees blue – they know it’s 7‑15 mm. Red means 25‑50 mm. No confusion, no reading tiny labels in a noisy warehouse.
50 kg or 100 kg Drums – You Choose
We offer both. A 20' container holds:
-
50 kg drums – 450 drums (22.5 tons) – easier for manual handling
-
100 kg drums – 225 drums (22.5 tons) – fewer drums, less steel
Many welding gas plants prefer 50 kg drums because workers can tip them into the generator hopper without a forklift. Tell us your preference.

Drum Colors – Pick Your Own
Grey drums are boring. We have 11 RAL colors. Popular choices for calcium carbide for welding:
-
7‑15 mm → Blue
-
25‑50 mm → Red
-
50‑80 mm → Black
-
1‑4 mm → Yellow
Or send us a RAL code. No extra charge.
Your Markings (唛头) – Painted on Steel
We don’t use stickers. Stickers fall off. We paint your markings directly on the drum. Send a PDF or AI file. We’ll print:
We’ve printed in Thai, Arabic, Spanish, French, Vietnamese, Indonesian. No extra cost.

Shipping – Tianjin Port, Two Weeks Lead Time
Our warehouse is less than 5 km from the port in Tianjin. From deposit to loading, count on two weeks. We export to over 50 countries – Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand, Philippines, Nigeria, Egypt, Brazil, Argentina, Poland, Turkey, South Africa, and many more. We know the paperwork for each destination.

Payment Terms – Flexible
Storage – Up to 2 Years
Keep drums off concrete floors (use pallets). Store below 40°C, humidity under 50%. Away from water pipes. Always reseal after opening. In a dry warehouse, our calcium carbide for welding stays effective for 2 years. In humid coastal areas, use within 18 months.
Safety – Short and Direct
Water + calcium carbide for welding = acetylene gas. Acetylene + spark = explosion. Never open a drum in wet weather. Never use water on a spill – use dry sand. If a drum gets wet, evacuate. Do not move it.
We put warnings on every drum. Train your people.
