BOC Oxygen Cylinder Industrial Grade Compressed Gas Cylinders
Oxygen is widely used with a fuel gas for cutting, welding, brazing and soldering. The use of oxygen gives higher flame temperatures than if air is used.
Features
Supplied with a 99.5% purity rating
Colourless and odourless
Does not burn but supports and accelerates combustion
Non-toxic at atmospheric pressure
Benefits
Vigorously supports combustion. Introducing oxygen to conventional air-fuel flames increases the temperature of the flame.
Used as an ingredient in some shielding gas mixtures, due to its ability to help stabilise the arc and reduce surface tension.
When cutting, a 1% reduction in purity increases oxygen consumption by 25% and reduces the cutting speed by a similar amount.
Cylinders & supply
Industrial Oxygen cylinder sizes include the compact, portable E cylinder containing 0.68m3 of gas and weighing just 7kg.
