A range of single hand operated soldering and brazing torches developed for fine jewellery and heavy brazing.
The Flamefast RF range of Gas/Air torches is constructed from nickel plated brass with a heat resistant steel burner head ensuring long and reliable service. Two torches are available, the RF80 which is designed for heavy brazing and the RF10 which is smaller in size with a heat output ideal for fine jewellery.
CONVENIENT TO USE
Permanent pilot flame, parking hook, screwed connections for flexible hoses and work piece cooling by rapid air blast plus a choice of models for natural or bottled gas make the RF range of gas/air torches simple and convenient to use.
ONE HANDED OPERATION
Built-in balance and position of controls enables effortless
single handed operation. Instantaneous adjustment of flame size,
shape and intensity over the full
range is achieved by a single rotary control valve and air throttle
button.
