Reply:Easy... Argon spoils after a long time in the bottle. That is when it becomes Argoff.QamuIs Heg qaq law' lorvIs yInqaq puS
Reply:It is a warranty/liability thing.  You weld up an aluminum sand rail, it breaks and kills somebody. Lawyers look for somebody to sue, and the gas companies look good, they got lots of money, right?  well if you used grandpas bottle with a 5 year expiration from date of fill and it is 6 years old, you used a bad product, and it is you own darn fault

Reply:I suspect this cylinder is already empty... it's been a day since you posted this. These expiration dates are likely due to fda requirements for medical grade gasses.http://www.weldingandgasestoday.org/...iration-dates/Hope you didn't pay the "medical grade" price
