PRO 2000 FUEL GASTM
PRO 2000 FUEL GAS is a reliable
and economical fuel gas for cutting,
heating and brazing  operations.
The performance of PRO 2000 FUEL GAS is
comparable to acetylene yet
safer with a high flow rate capacity. An
added benefit to using PRO 2000 FUEL GAS comes from the material handling
standpoint. A 100 lb. cylinder of PRO 2000 FUEL GAS has a volume of 866
cu.ft. while a standard acetylene cylinder contains 350 cu.ft. Translated
into BTU's, PRO 2000 FUEL GAS has 2,261,992 per cylinder while acetylene
contains 518,000 per cylinder. Less cylinder change outs and more
productivity.
PRO 2000 FUEL GAS burns cleanly with no sooty black smoke. PRO 2000 FUEL
GAS provides an extremely clean cut with virtually no slag or spatter.
Little or no grinding is required after cutting with PRO 2000 FUEL GAS.
PRO 2000 FUEL GAS FEATURES:
High Withdrawal Rates
Constant Composition
Consistant Operating Results
Fast Preheat Capability
Uses Standard Two Piece Fuel Gas Tips
PRO 2000 FUEL GAS is safe to handle. It is not subject to detonation from
shock. PRO 2000 FUEL GAS may be handled, stored and transported in
standard D.O.T. approved LP Gas equipment. It will not form explosive
acetylides when in contact with copper or silver alloys. Copper pipe or
tubing may be used in distribution systems.
