Frequently asked questions regarding gas welding & cutting equipment
Can I weld metal with Oxygen & Propane?
Unfortunately not, the mixture of oxygen and propane will not get material such as steel up to the correct temperature to weld. However, you can use oxygen / propane to cut through metals.
Do I need flashback arrestors when welding or cutting with gas?
Yes, flashback arrestors are of the utmost importance when cutting or welding with oxy/fuel. If a flashback occurs then flashback arrestors ensure the users safety which should always be at the forefront of the users mind when utilising these processes.
How often should I replace my gas welding or cutting equipment?
The maximum life span of any piece of gas equipment is 5 years. However, your equipment should be periodically inspected by a trained professional to ensure their suitability for use. This can be carried out by a qualified CP7 / CP47 inspector. At the very least, the user should self-inspect their equipment for any damage or wear.
