Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What is the main difference between a cutting torch and a soldering torch?
A. The main difference between a cutting torch and a soldering torch is its primary function. Cutting torches are used to cut metals into smaller pieces, whereas soldering torches are ideal for joining different metal pieces together. These torches can not be used interchangeably, so users should use the appropriate torches for their applications.
Q. How hot is the flame generated by Bernzomatic TS8000 torch?
A. Bernzomatic TS8000 torch can generate a flame with a maximum temperature of 3650 degrees F using MAP-Pro fuel and 3400 degrees F using propane fuel.
Q. What are the points to remember before operating a Bernzomatic TS8000 torch?
A.
- Disconnect the fuel cylinder when not in use to prevent accidental wastage.
- Operaters should wear proper protective equipment like safety glasses & protective gloves to handle hot workpieces without any injury.
- Users should make sure that the connections are tight and deliver proper fuel amounts.
Q. How to choose the right fuel gas for use in Bernzomatic TS8000 torch?
A. Users should choose the right fuel gas for Bernzomatic torches based on parameters like application requirements, material properties, solder size, heating capacity and fuel gas cost / availability. Each fuel gas should be tested over a set period to compare its efficiency and overall cost.
