The ideal hands free gas air torch for jewellery work with a wide range of flame patterns and heat output.
The Flamefast Sidelight Gas/Air torch is constructed from chromium plated brass with a heat resistant steel burner head ensuring long and reliable service.
The torch works on both Natural Gas and LPG and is designed to work with an air supply pressure regulated at up to 4 lbs/in2 - 270 mbar.
CONVENIENT TO USE
The torch is bench mounted to leave the operator with both hands
free for manipulation of the work piece. The gas and air supply
are easily regulated with the taps fitted in each supply pipe
to give a very wide range of flame patterns and heat outputs.
Once the desired characteristics of the working flame have been
set the torch head can be swivelled back to
give just a reduced pilot flame. On returning the head to its
working position the pre-set
flame is automatically re-established.
IMPORTANT SAFETY MEASURES
- Use only the gas pressure recommended by Flamefast.
- Do not use propane or butane at high pressure.
- Make sure a fixed pressure regulator is used, available from Flamefast.
- Always have a non-return valve fitted to both gas and air lines, available from Flamefast.
AIR SUPPLY
If the air supply is delivered by an air compressor, a non-return
valve and pressure gauge must be fitted in the air line. If the
air supply is delivered by a vane compressor a
non-return valve is not needed in the air line. If compressed
air is not available a range of blowers and torches have been
developed by Flamefast to give similar performance characteristics.
