What parts does a rotary blowtorch consist of?
burner | ||
| The burner is the area of the blowtorch that determines the size and heat of the flame. The burner is an interchangeable part and can vary in size and shape to create different types of flame. For more information, see {{widget type=”cms/widget_page_link” title=”What are the parts of a rotary blowtorch?” template=”cms/widget/link/link_inline.phtml” page_id=”3516″}} | |
 | There is a kind of rotary blowtorch with two burners. An additional burner increases the temperature of the flame. | |
Adjustment knob | ||
| The adjustment knob adjusts the gas supply from "closed" to "full". It also changes the size of the flame from a sharp, hot blue flame to a soft yellow flame. To create a hot flame, turn the flame regulator nozzle counterclockwise, and to set it to a colder flame or turn it off, turn it clockwise. | ||
Kernel | ||
 | The hinge is the hinge that connects the burn tube to the blowtorch, around which the burn tube rotates. | |
Piezo ignition | ||
 | Piezo ignition allows you to light a blowtorch without the use of an external flame. See {{widget type="cms/widget_page_link" title="What parts does a rotary blowtorch consist of?" template=”cms/widget/link/link_inline.phtml” page_id=”3520″}} | |
| Some rotary blowtorches do not have a piezo ignition switch and must be manually ignited. This is done by turning on the blowtorch by turning the flame control nozzle, allowing a small amount of gas to be produced, and placing the lit flame into the gas. | ||
communication | ||
 | The coupling on the blowtorch allows you to attach it to a gas cartridge. The swiveling blowtorch can have an EN417 (7/16″) connection or a CGA 600 connection (1″ thread). For more information see | |
