   Tri-mix - contains helium?   
   You seem to get / use much more He in the USA.   
      
   I once got to try a mix with He on stainless steel - rubbish welds at   
   their "house" conditions in "dip".  But when no-one was looking I   
   flipped it into "spray" and the foreman returning jumped backwards and   
   his his jaw dropped, and recovering a bit he asked "Did you just do   
   that?!".  To which I answered "Yes.  Here's the weld you want."   
      
   For most stainless MIG here we use Ar-1%O2.  Never tried it.
