Bottle that have PURE gas, like Oxygen, CO2, C25 Argon/CO2, yep, you can get away with using them laying on their side. REMEMBER, if your acetylene bottle has been laying down, it should be stood vertical at least 30 minutes prior to use. Just Safety rule of thumb.

Feb 28, 2017 · Obviously welding out of a pickup bed is less desirable that off a flatbed, but I haven't got around to building a flatbed yet. I am trying to organize the space and I'm wondering if I can get input on whether or not an argon bottle can be laid on its side when used or if it has to be upright. I would appreciate any insight on this.

Can our Argon welding gas bottles be stored horizontally? Our new supplier of E size bottles dropped off their first one on Friday. I tried to install over the weekend but quickly discovered that their bottles are 100mm or 4" to tall to fit under my welding bench like the old bottles do. The only way now is to lay it down on the floor.
