the flammable gas for your oxy-fuel cutting, heat treating and torch brazing applications

acetylene is a flammable gas produced by reacting calcium carbide with water or as a secondary product from ethylene production. acetylene is dissolved in a solvent in specially designed cylinders filled with a porous mass. since the gas is dissolved into the mass, it is sometimes called 'dissolved acetylene'.

the exceptionally high flame temperature of acetylene (3100°c) makes it ideal for oxy-acetylene cutting, heat treating and torch brazing. it can also be used in analytical laboratories for organic synthesis and as a flame gas in analytical techniques such as atomic absorption (aa) spectroscopy. sometimes it is used for chemically-induced flower production.

air products offers acetylene gas in a variety of purities and in various modes of supply around the world ranging from cylinders to manifolded packs.

integra® acetylene cylinder and flashback arrestor

safer :

  • built in flashback arrestor
  • reduced exposure to pressure hazard, built-in regulator controls pressure and cannot be removed
  • reduced risk of regulator damage, regulator fully contained within protective guard
  • shorter and more stable, cylinder has reduced risk of falling

easier to use :

  • smaller, lighter and more manoeuvrable than traditional cylinders
  • snap-on connectors no need for spanners
  • hand-operated on/off valve (no need for bottle keys)
  • pre-set flow eliminates set-up time

more efficient :

  • never buy, repair or calibrate a regulator again

ask the expert

“what should i do if i have a problem with my acetylene cylinder?”
  • contact us directly to speak to a safety expert
  • do not attempt to repair the cylinder or valve 
  • do not heat acetylene cylinders

transporting cylinders? drive safely and arrive safely

there are some basic safety rules to follow when transporting cylinders :

  • no smoking
  • check that cylinder valves are properly closed and that valve caps are fitted
  • ventilate your vehicle
  • disconnect regulators, hoses and torches, etc.
  • secure cylinders properly to prevent them from moving
  • go directly to your destination
  • do not leave cylinders inside the boot or in an unventilated place
  • immediately unload at destination or if stopping for a longer time and store in a ventilated place
