Flashback Arrestor for Oxygen Regulator - 3/8" RH

Flashback Arrestor Oxygen – Maximum Safety for Your Welding System

Safety in gas welding is crucial, and a flashback arrestor on the oxygen side is one of the most important components of your equipment. It acts as a robust safety barrier protecting your oxygen regulator and gas cylinder from dangerous flashbacks and flames.

While a check valve stops gas flow from reversing, this flashback arrestor is designed to immediately extinguish a flame and cut off the oxygen supply, preventing a serious accident.

Why do you need a flashback arrestor on the Oxygen side?

• Flame Arrestor: Built-in sintered filter that instantly cools down and extinguishes the flame in case of a flashback.
• Automatic Shut-off: Mechanically cuts off gas flow in case of pressure surges or flashbacks to isolate the gas cylinder from the source of ignition.
• Standardized Connection: Equipped with a 3/8" RH (right-hand thread) for a perfect, secure fit on your oxygen regulator.
• Vital Protection: Protects against the extremely intense reactions that occur when pure oxygen comes into contact with a flame during a flashback.

Technical Features:

• Adapted for Oxygen: Materials and seals are specifically chosen to be safe for use with oxygen under pressure.
• Clear Identification: Designed for right-hand threaded mounting to eliminate the risk of confusion with the fuel gas side.
• High Reliability: Made of the highest quality brass to guarantee safe operation for a long time.

Specifications:

• Gas Type: Oxygen.
• Thread Size: 3/8" RH (Right-hand thread).
• Mounting: Regulator.
• Function: Flame arrestor and automatic gas shut-off in case of flashback.

Recommendation: For complete protection, it is always recommended to use flashback arrestors on both the oxygen and fuel gas regulators along with check valves on the torch handle.
