Description of OptiFlame™ Propane/Mapp Gas Torch: Self Ignition, Adjustable for Efficient Brazing in Challenging Environments

【 Flame End Swivels】The torch propane has a high-quality vortex propane design and a 360-degree rotatable tip, which enables the flame to generate a temperature of up to 3600oF and can achieve more concentrated heating applications. 【Intimate Reminder】 When the Mapp Gas Torch turns the knob to ignite the flame, you need to turn a quarter turn of the knob, press the front metal igniter, and then return to turn the knob to adjust the flame size. This operation allows you to use the welding torch easily and safely. 【Metal Igniter】The Propane/Mapp Gas Torch can automatically ignite the flame without a match. The speed of heating the solder joints is fast and the flame will not splash, and the lighting effect is remarkable. 【Sophisticated Structure】The high-quality brass material is safe, practical and high temperature resistant, and the orifice screws are easy to clean. The stainless steel tip is resistant to high temperature, wear-resistant and not easily corroded. Aluminum material has good heat insulation effect and is not easy to hurt hands. The material that meets the requirements of welding work is the absolute guarantee for the durability of welding. 【Wide Range of Uses】It has higher heat than ordinary propane torches, and products with more refined designs can work more focused in a small space in cold winters. For example, it is suitable for heating wire groups or ACR pipes, heating metal to remove rust/paint, brazing and cooling Pipelines/copper pipes, etc.

Great price for welding equipment

As a plumber with 10 years of experience I can say that the price can't be beat, always used a turbo torch, went for this one, looks good quality, heats up no worse than a turbo torch, let's see how long it lasts. Recommend!

Pros
  • Tools and household goods
Cons
  • Reliability

Never Buy Cheap Tools

I know better than to buy something cheap but I thought what the heck am I going to try. Let's just say after spending thirty bucks on this I need to go out and buy a turbo light. I have to turn the gas all the way up for it to glow, and then it only glows after five or six times. I'm sure if I keep using this I'll be blown away.

Pros
  • Welders
Cons
  • Damaged

I wish I could make it work!

The torch worked for about a month. I am really disappointed. This product has such good reviews. Mine fell off and now I can't light it until I bring the lighter to the torch once the gas is turned on. But the small sprocket doesn't fit properly, so I can't use it at altitude. When I turn it on at full power, the torch behaves like it's about to explode. So I just use my old no frills light when I go with the torch head. Such a shame. I've tried searching online for a troubleshooting guide but

Pros
  • Metal igniter
Cons
  • Very expensive
