Choosing a shank

GCE offers the X21 handle in round and flat (oval) forms; the choice is mainly one of grip preference. The round 0767946 with BV12 fittings suits hose assemblies with BV12 nuts, while 0764658 has plain 6.3 mm hose nipples. One shank can serve several attachments, so a workshop can keep a single handle per operator and change heads for welding, cutting or heating. When replacing a shank, check the thread hand: the fuel connection is left-hand.

Fit flashback arrestors appropriate to the gases and follow the GCE instructions when connecting hoses and leak testing.

GCE equipment for welding and cutting

For gas welding and cutting the manufacturer offers cutting and welding sets, combination torches and hand cutting torches such as the X11 and X511 ranges, cutting nozzles, cylinder regulators and line regulators. Outside welding, GCE supplies equipment for medical gases and for high-purity specialty gases. Products are documented with instructions for use and declarations of conformity.

Ordering GCE torches and regulators: what we need

Give the GCE article number, or the product range with length, head angle and inlet threads. State the fuel gas, acetylene or propane, because the nozzle type depends on it, together with the plate thickness you cut and the safety devices required on site.
