* Torchweld Powder Spray Kit:
* Consists of Purox® W-300 torch handle, powder hopper and flow control unit and three of the most popular tips (size 20, 30 and 40 single orifice), plus three Torchweld nickel alloy metal powders (20RC, 30RC, and 60RC hardness). Kits also available with any three powders of your choice.
* The torch is virtually free of maintenance. Its simplicity of design and light weight make the All-State metal powder spray torch a pleasure to operate.
* A special venturi tube within the hopper unit directs blowback and accumulated gases outside the hopper and away from the operator.
* Versatile - attaches to existing oxyacetylene source equipment without special adapters. Each of the kit's torch tips and powders was selected for the most common uses in the field.
* Can be used out-of-position. Available from All-State distributors only.
* Powders from 15RC to 62RC and special mixes also sold separately.
- Torch Kit Safety Hints:
- Wear proper eye and body protection.
- Avoid putting the torch tip in a closed or recessed place which could concentrate the flame heat and cause a "flashback". Use of a flashback arrestor is highly recommended.
- Note: If a "flashback" occurs, A.) Turn off the fuel gas valve first, then B.) Turn off the oxygen valve.
- Caution: Before relighting the torch after a "flashback", inspect torch and tip. Replace any burned "O" rings or damaged parts before proceeding to spray again.
- Important: Never light the torch with the powder lever depressed and powder in the hopper.
- Spray direction can be adjusted by loosening the tip coupling nut(part #10) and swiveling the tip to the desired direction. Resecure the tip nut byfinger tightening. Do not overtighten the tip nut by using a wrench.
- To avoid torch "popping" when extinguishing flame, first increase oxygen flow slightly, then turn off acetylene valve, and finally turn off oxygen valve. Use large acetylene tank whenever possible.
- Always store torch with the powder feed lever depressed (open flow position), securing the lever with a rubber band or string.
- Keep parts absolutely clean. Use no lubricants. Use clean tools. Avoid transferring skin oils to internal torch parts.
- All-State Torchweld Powder Torch Instructions:
- The recommended procedures for all oxyacetylene torch operations should be observed. Reverse flow check valves should be used in conjunction with the torch.
- Base metal must be degreased and cleaned by either grinding or grit blasting with chilled shot.
- Select tip size appropriate for the job. The larger the mass to be heated the larger the tip needed.
- When attaching tip barrel to main body of torch, make sure opening and key way at metering valve end of tip barrel line up with two holes on front of main body of torch. Also, retaining nut that secures tip barrel to main body must be tightened to the entent that no threads are visible on main body of torch.
- The All-State powders should be tumbled prior to use. This remixes the powder and helps insure even flow through the All-State torch.
- Adjust oxygen regulator to 18-22 lbs. psi and acetylene regulator to 12-15 lbs. psi (never exceed 15 lbs. psi of acetylene). Pressures apply for all tip sizes. Before pouring powder into hopper, depress the powder lever, light the acetylene and adjust flame so it jumps off tip end. Add oxygen until a neutral flame is reached.
- Heat base metal to approximately 600°F. Spray entire area to be repaired with a light "dusting" of powder. Release powder spray lever and fuse previouly applied coating. Watch for the melting or "sweatline" of the coating. Follow the "sweatline" with the flame. A tip-to-work distance of 3/8" to 1/2" will avoid tip overheating. After the first coat of powder has been fused, add additional coats as needed, fusing each layer of powder before applying the next. To prevent overheating of the base metal, remove the flame for a few seconds between each layer. After completing, slowly cool weldment in a draft free area.
