  • Smiths Little Torches are easy to add into your set up and can be used for close up, precise work. Martin shows how easy it is, with splitter kits, how easy it would be to cut one in at home yourself.

    What psi is the propane running on? I use a community studio and I was thinking of putting quick connects on the smith torch to hook into the bench propane (10psi)/oxy (30 psi) and wasn't sure if that would be a problem for the smith torch

    • @Tuffnellglass

      That would be too high , ideally the psi on propane would be 1 -1 1/2 psi depending on the tip your using on the torch

    Can you to put a splitter on the Oxygen the same way as the Propane or is a separate tank required?

      yup, but be sure to use only oxygen compatible tubing and fittings. a spark arrestor/flashback isn't a bad idea either.

    how did you do your oxygen set up?

      @Tuffnellglass  2 года назад

      It’s been run off a standard 5 litre oxy-con so with a UK oxygen nut and tail it bolts directly to the torch hose

    Why didn't you use tephlon tape on the connections
    Smith torches are best when they have aftermarket tips.. original tips constantly blow out

      Hello Robert, we always find that with new threads and joints there is no need for tape.
