🛒 Uniweld 500S Metal Carrying Stand: Secure Transport for MC Acetylene and R Oxygen Tanks Review

My plastic Port-A-Torch had a cracked handle. A new plastic carrier costs the same as this good metal carrier. I'm a happy customer!

My MC acetylene and 20# oxygen are a perfect match. A five meter hose is beautifully packaged, and in a small container are wrenches and a flint lighter. For a beginner and newbie like me, this was a nice addition.

They are great for mobile devices. simple and durable. I have owned many of these media over the past 20 years, some I made myself, some bought. I made the same two modifications to each of them. The first is the second rod holder so I can carry different types without mixing them up. The second is a small bar under the handle to keep the rope/hook in place when raising/lowering the rig off the roof.

I ordered this because I was using a disposable soldering set at the time. The carrier is sized for a 20 cu ft refillable oxygen cylinder and a small refillable acetylene cylinder. it was really too big for disposable tanks. I used this as an excuse to buy a 20CF oxygen cylinder and regulator and made a seal for a disposable MAPP cylinder. Now it's the perfect portable welding and brazing machine! The quality is excellent and there is no fear of it melting like some plastic tank holders.
