Typical layout
Check out on the right the typical layout for a torch being used on propane gas.

In order the layout comprises:
• a burner,
• the torch handle,
• a length of hose secured by
• two hose clips
• a regulator.

The regulator keeps the gas pressure constant so that the torch works well in all circumstances.

The burner size varies depending on the job to be done and most Bullfinch torches have interchangeable burners.

The Performer ranges fit straight onto the small cylinders and so the hose and separate regulators are not required.


The Torch Kits
shown in most sections are ready for use - all you need is a suitable cylinder of gas - propane is usually the best.

Please note that Flashback arrestors are not needed when propane or butane is used with air. This is true for Bullfinch propane or butane burning appliances including these lpg (propane and butane) burning torches. Flashback arrestors are required for the Bullfinch Autotorch for acetylene and for oxy-propane and oxy-acetylene systems (download letter from HSE for verification).
