FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the check valves?

The integrated check valves prevent flashback (the flame traveling back into the hose) and the backflow of gases, significantly enhancing user safety during oxyacetylene welding operations.

Are these hoses suitable for propane or other gases?

No, these hoses are specifically designed and rated for use with oxygen and acetylene gases only.

What size are the connections on the hose ends?

The hoses are fitted with 3/8" BSP swivel unions.

How should I store the welding hoses?

Store the hoses loosely coiled in a clean, dry area away from heat, sunlight, and potential damage. Avoid sharp bends or kinks.

How do I know if the check valves are working?

Properly functioning check valves will prevent gas from flowing backward. If you experience frequent flashbacks or suspect a valve issue, it's advisable to test or replace the hose set.

What is the significance of the 10mm hose diameter?

The 10mm diameter is a standard size for oxyacetylene hoses, ensuring adequate gas flow for common welding and cutting tasks without being excessively large or cumbersome.

Troubleshooting

Gas leak detected at connection point.

Ensure the 3/8" BSP swivel unions are securely tightened. Check for any damage to the fittings or hose connection. Consider using appropriate sealing tape if necessary and permitted for gas lines.

Flashback occurs.

Immediately shut off gas supplies at the cylinder. Check that the integrated check valves are functioning correctly and are not blocked. Ensure correct gas pressures are set on the regulators.

Low gas flow to torch.

Verify that cylinder valves are fully open and regulator pressures are set correctly. Check hoses for kinks or blockages. Ensure check valves are not obstructed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Integrated check valves enhance user safety.
  • Swivel unions allow for easy and flexible connection.
  • Generous 10-meter hose length provides good working radius.
  • Standard 10mm hose size is widely compatible.
  • Robust construction for durability.

Cons

  • Hose length may be excessive for very confined spaces.
  • Requires specific 3/8" BSP fittings for connection.
  • Only suitable for oxyacetylene; not for other gas types.
  • Hoses may require coiling and storage to prevent kinks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure both oxygen and acetylene cylinders have appropriate regulators attached.
  2. Connect the corresponding hose ends (typically red for acetylene, blue for oxygen, though check markings) to the regulator outlets using the 3/8" BSP swivel unions. Hand-tighten firmly, then use an appropriate wrench to secure, ensuring a gas-tight seal.
  3. Connect the other ends of the hoses to the welding torch inlet connections, again using the 3/8" BSP swivel unions.
  4. Slowly open cylinder valves and regulators according to standard oxyacetylene procedures.

Compatibility:

  • Designed for oxyacetylene gas applications.
  • Fittings are 3/8" BSP (British Standard Pipe) size.
  • Ensure your regulators and welding torch are equipped with compatible 3/8" BSP fittings.

Care:

  • After use, close cylinder valves, bleed hoses, and then close regulator valves.
  • Store hoses loosely coiled away from heat sources, sharp objects, and direct sunlight.
  • Inspect hoses regularly for any signs of wear, cracking, or damage. Replace if compromised.
  • Keep check valves free from debris.
