How hot can a cutting torch get?

Oxygen Acetylene torch will get to 5800-6300 degrees Fahrenheit easily.


How can an oxygen-acetylene torch burn underwater?

An oxygen-acetylene torch can burn underwater because it produces its own oxygen supply. The torch separates water into its constituent hydrogen and oxygen gases, then uses the oxygen to support the combustion of the acetylene. This allows the torch to continue burning even in an underwater environment.


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.


How hot does a torch burn at?

With the correct mixture of Acetylene and Oxygen the flame can reach 5,000F or more. Other fuels (Propane etc.) do not create temperatures this high.


Why doesn't oxygen in an oxyacetylene torch burn without the acetylene yet medical oxygen is explosive?

Oxygen is not actually explosive. In an acetylene torch, the torch burns the acetylene and the oxygen only facilitates combustion, so it is not burning the oxygen. Hospitals warn of the explosion hazard of oxygen because pure oxygen accelerates the burn of fuel so fast that it is like an explosion. In common air there is roughly 79% nitrogen and 21% oxygen, all fuels must have oxygen to burn and when pure oxygen is introduced the fire then has more oxygen thus it accelerates the fire.

Which gas burns the hottest when cutting torch is used?

oxygen supports the combustion of the gas that one uses in the welding/cutting torch. Acetylene combined with Oxygen produces the hottest flame.


Explain oxy- acetylene welding process?

Oxygen and acetylene tanks feed into your torch. When opened, the gases will mix in a chamber in the torch, then flow out of the torch tip. Using a spark lighter, they will ignite causing a flame. This flame can be adjusted to a neutral flame by moving the knobs on the tank regulators.


What is the difference between an oxygen regulator and an acetylene regulator?

An oxygen regulator controls the flow of oxygen from a compressed gas cylinder to a torch or other equipment. An acetylene regulator performs the same function but is specifically designed to handle the characteristics of acetylene gas, which is highly flammable and requires a different pressure setting compared to oxygen.
