INDUSTRIAL GRADE OXYGEN

BOC industrial grade oxygen vigorously supports the combustion of many materials such as copper, brass, stainless steel.

Oxygen is widely used with a fuel gas for cutting, welding, brazing and soldering. The use of oxygen gives higher flame temperatures than if air is used.

Features

• Supplied with a 99.5% purity rating
• Colourless and odourless
• Does not burn but supports and accelerates combustion
• Non-toxic at atmospheric pressure

Benefits

• Vigorously supports combustion. Introducing oxygen to conventional air-fuel flames increases the temperature of the flame.
• Used as an ingredient in some shielding gas mixtures, due to its ability to help stabilise the arc and reduce surface tension.
• When cutting, a 1% reduction in purity increases oxygen consumption by 25% and reduces the cutting speed by a similar amount.
