Soldering Lamp: Applications and Specifications

The blowtorch serves to heat containers that contain non-flammable liquids, repairs, heat treatment and soldering. Devices are classified according to the type of fuel used in them. They produce kerosene, gas and gasoline burners. The most popular and convenient is a gas blowtorch. However, fans of gasoline burners insist on their own.

Modern high-tech gas soldering devices combine ergonomics and reliability in application. They are able to work both from disposable cylinders, and from re-refueled. The blowtorch itself is available with a plastic or metal casing.

Universal gas devices can be operated from different types of cylinders, which are connected by thread, while the gas container can be disconnected at any time. This equipment is convenient for transportation and storage. When buying the device, you should pay attention to gas lamps, which are operated with the help of the latest valve cylinders from KEMAP.

These tanks have an aluminum casing, which contains a special mixture of liquefied gases, created on the basis of oil. Such a soldering lamp makes it possible to achieve a high soldering efficiency, which previously could only be obtained using acetylene. These devices will be a great help for masters engaged in professional welding and soldering.

There are gas burners that work from conventional propane cylinders. These devices differ in power and reliability. They are universal and do not depend on the choice of gas source. For work, you can use a hose of any length. To carry out roofing work, it is necessary to select a lamp, which is equipped with a lever and a nozzle, which makes it possible to rapidly increase the flame power.

For those who are engaged in the repair of electrical appliances, you can buy micro soldering irons in which the gas tank is located inside the devices. Before using the devices, they are charged from a gas bottle designed for lighters. This device can be a good gift for men with skillful hands.

A gasoline blowtorch can create a very high temperature, reaching up to 1100 degrees. The flame strength of the device can be easily adjusted. A blowtorch that operates on gasoline with a low octane rating or kerosene can be used to heat large soldering irons or to work with brazing solder.

Devices running on gas or gasoline have their advantages and disadvantages. To combine the characteristics of both devices, you can purchase a universal multi-fuel burner. This device is able to work on any type of fuel, from diesel to gas. It is worth such a blowtorch is quite expensive (7-8 thousand rubles).

It must be remembered that all devices require careful handling and can fail. Most often, a pump breaks down injecting fuel, and jets also become clogged.
