Oxy-fuel Welding & Thermal Processes (311)
The World of Oxy-Fuel Cutting & Flame Straightening
The original form of thermal joining technology. Mastery of acetylene/oxygen mixtures, flame zones, flame straightening, and flame cutting.
Flame Adjustment & Pressure Calculator
Determine the gas pressures, burner size, and the ideal mixing ratio (O₂ / C₂H₂).
Material Thickness / Wall Thickness:2.5 mm
Flame characteristics:
Recommended Burner (Size):Size 3 (2 - 4 mm)
Oxygen (O2):2.5 - 3.0 bar
Acetylene (C2H2):0.2 - 0.5 bar
Rule: Use a neutral flame for ordinary steels! Use an oxidizing flame ONLY for brazing brass.
Master Technique: Flame Straightening
Place strategically positioned heat triangles (point toward the seam, base toward the distortion). The material expands, undergoes plastic deformation, and straightens the component with millimeter precision as it cools!
