July 2026
We’ve locked in new supplier pricing and passed the savings on. Prices are down across the lineup — xenon, krypton, neon, helium, and argon — and not a single item on our list costs more than it did last month.
If you’ve been putting off a project because of gas costs, now is the time.

What this means for you
- Bigger fills are the smart buy. The deepest cuts land on the 50 L and up sizes — lecture bottles, DA, and DB cylinders. Stepping up a size stretches your dollar much further than before.
- Xenon projects are back on the table. At 30–37% off, that xenon piece you shelved is suddenly a lot more affordable.
- Everything else holds steady. K4, UHP nitrogen, our Ar/Kr and Ar/Ne mixes, and the remaining sizes stay at their current prices — no increases anywhere on the list.
All the usual cylinder options, valves, and fill pressures are unchanged, and hazmat charges stay the same. One heads-up: FedEx freight has gone from $115 to $125 per shipment — one more reason to consolidate into a bigger fill.
