2. Blowpipe (tool) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowpipe_(tool)

   While blowing air is effective, blowing oxygen produces higher temperatures, and it is also practical to invert the roles of the gasses and blow fuel through air. Contemporary blowtorches and oxy-fuel welding and cutting torches can be considered to be modern developments of the blowpipe. Kit for blowpipe analysis Carl Osterland, Freiberg, c. 1870

3. Oxy-fuel welding and cutting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxy-fuel_welding_and_cutting

   The oxy-acetylene (and other oxy-fuel gas mixtures) welding torch remains a mainstay heat source for manual brazing, as well as metal forming, preparation, and localized heat treating. In addition, oxy-fuel cutting is still widely used, both in heavy industry and light industrial and repair operations.

4. MAPP gas - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAPP_gas

   A set of MAPP and oxygen cylinders is used for oxy-fuel welding and cutting.. MAPP gas was a trademarked name, belonging to The Linde Group, a division of the former global chemical giant Union Carbide, for a fuel gas based on a stabilized mixture of methylacetylene (propyne), propadiene and propane.

5. Flashback arrestor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flashback_arrestor

   A flashback arrestor [1] or flash arrestor is a gas safety device most commonly used in oxy-fuel welding and cutting to stop the flame or reverse flow of gas back up into the equipment or supply line. It protects the user and equipment from damage or explosions.

6. Oxyhydrogen - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxyhydrogen

   Nineteenth-century electrolytic cell for producing oxyhydrogen. Oxyhydrogen is a mixture of hydrogen (H 2) and oxygen (O 2) gases.This gaseous mixture is used for torches to process refractory materials and was the first [1] gaseous mixture used for welding.

7. Thermal lance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_lance

   A thermal lance, thermic lance, oxygen lance, or burning bar is a tool that heats and melts steel in the presence of pressurized oxygen to create very high temperatures for cutting. It consists of a long steel tube packed with alloy steel rods, which serve as fuel; these are sometimes mixed with aluminum rods to increase the heat output.
