What is the difference between an oxygen regulator and an acetylene regulator?
the threads on a acetylene bottle are anti clockwise so on oygen bottle its righty tighty on acetylene its lefty tighty
What is the procedure for lighting and adjusting to a neutral flame?
The procedure involved is very simple: 1. check that all equipment is safe to use and is not broken in any way, if it is do not use this equipment. 2. make sure both regulator knobs are lose 3. open the acetylene control values. 4. turn the acetylene regulator adjustment knob until the desired reading 5.repet steps 3 an 4 but with oxygen. 6. open the acetylene blowpipe pipe (about half turn) 7.with a flint light, point the tip into the catchment area of the lighter. 8.adjust the acetylene blowpipe valve until a flicker of sut is coming from the flame 9. open the oxygen blowpipe valve until there is a neutral flame ( a neutral flame should have a small cone near the tip.
Why do you let the extra oxygen bleed out of a tank?
When "bleeding" an oxygen tank, you are releasing excess pressure stored in the regulator, not the tank itself. If the excess pressure remains, it can damage the regulator, and the guage needle can get stuck, giving an inaccurate reading of how much oxygen remains in the tank.
Which element is used in welding with oxygen?
Acetylene.
Can you use argon and acetylene together?
acetylene is a flammable gas and relies on oxygen to burn. Argon would prevent a flame by displacing oxygen because of it's density in comparison to oxygen.

What is the function of Oxygen cylinder regulator?
it regulate the oxygen pressure
How can an oxygen-acetylene torch burn underwater?
a flame needs a source which is provided by oxygen and acetylene

Gas used in welding is what?
GASSES - Oxygen and Acetylene. Acetylene is sometimes replaced by a mixture of gasses. The Oxygen increases the burning rate/temperature of Acetylene and temperatures in excess of 6,000o F can be reached.

What element is used to make oxy acetylene flames?
Oxygen and acetylene are used.
What is a reaction between acetylene and oxygen that is used in welding metal?
Used in welding metals, the reaction of acetylene with oxygen has = -1256.2= -1256.2 .
What color is acetylene hoses?
In normal usage in an oxy/acetylene cutting torch, the acetylene hose is red and the oxygen hose is green.
Which element is used in welding with oxygen?
Acetylene.

What is difference between acetylene and formaldehyde?
Oxygen is a chemical element, acetylene is an organic chemical compound.
