GAS WELDING EQUIPMENT

Gas welding & cutting carries a good deal of danger & all businesses must be across British Compressed Gas Association regulations. All apparatus must be well maintained in accordance with BCGA's CP7 regulations.

Gas Welding Torches & Cutting equipment

We stock a range of gas welding and cutting torch options. Our Model O lead welding kit is great for the welding of thin gauge sheet metal and finite gas welding applications, whilst the Type 5 platform is modular and allows for welding with a swaged nozzle and cutting with the addition of a gas cutting attachment. For thinner gauge steel, the lighweight gas welding platform will allow you to weld up to 8 mm diameter.

Argon & Oxy/Fuel Gas Welding Hose

Oxy/fuel welding hoses link the oxygen and fuel cylinders to the valve devices on the gas welding torch. Choose from oxy/acetylene and oxy/propane hose sets in 5, 10 & 20 metre sets. Argon hose for MIG & TIG welding is also available by the metre or in the form of 2 metre argon hose set with 3/8 fittings.

Gas Welding Regulators & Gas Saving equipment curated by industry professionals

All gas welding regulators are date stamped and should be replaced every five years, under BCGA's CP7 testing regime.

With an emphasis on quality & technical support, our experienced partners Weldgas supply us with a range of indicator, plug, single stage & two stage models with bottom, side & nevoc style entry points. 

Argon & Argon Mix gas saving devices come in the form of the Elga Optimator. The Optimator controls the surge of gas in the MIG & TIG process, when the torch is initiated. Savings can be up to 30% of normal consumption.

Gas Welding & Cutting Nozzles

Choose from model O lead burning nozzles, heavy weight & light weight swaged welding nozzles & oxy/fuel cutting nozzles.

Flashback Arrestors

Gas safety devices are used to protect single cylinders, outlet points or pipelines from gas blowback and explosion. We offer a choice of resettable and non-resettable flashback arrestors for gas welding & cutting. In accordance with BCGA CP7 regulations, flashback arrestors should be changed every five years.

Safe handling & transportation of gas cylinders

Cylinder related accident risk can be reduced by ensuring bottles are moved & chained safely. BCGA's GN3 regulations point to the use of trolleys when moving cylinders. Securing chains, 200 mm wheels & handle height all form part of the guidance. Three wheel twin cylinder trolleys perform best, where the ground maybe uneven.
