Cylinder Capacity : 6-7 Cubic Meter

Cylinder Colour : Maroon

 

 

 

The low auto-ignition temperature of acetylene means that minimal energy is required to ignite acetylene in air or oxygen. Highly reactive, acetylene is dissolved in acetone and contained within a porous mass inside the cylinder. Common applications include:

• Cutting
• Brazing
• Heating
• Flame hardening – an oxyacetylene flame can be used where the hardened surface of carbon steel components is either in-situ as a remedial process or on components too large to fit in a furnace
• Flame cleaning – a wide oxyacetylene flame is held very close to a steel surface to be cleaned
  Thermal spraying of various metals and ceramics. The material to be sprayed is fed through the flame.
