Gas Cylinder

Soldering & Brazing FAQs

How do I dispose of gas cylinders other than LPG?

Empty disposable gas cylinders can be dropped off at your local hazardous waste facility which you can find on Recycling Near You (we recommend contacting to see if they accept your type of gas cylinder). Read our full gas cylinder disposable guide here.

How does the Oxyset compare to oxy-acetylene brazing?

The Oxyset (1811167-2) can be used to braze copper pipes up to 1.5" (38mm) in diameter. Whilst oxy-acetylene produces a higher flame temperature, oxy-map produces a high flame temperature suitable for many brazing applications. Due to its compact size and weight, the Oxyset is an ideal companion for plumbers, gas-fitters and HVAC technicians.

How long does the Oxyset Oxygen Cylinder run for?

As the highest-pressure disposable cylinder in the market, Bromic 1L Oxygen Disposable Cylinder provides more gas in a compact cylinder. When used with the Oxyset tip #1 and Map//Pro gas, the Bromic 1L Oxygen Disposable Cylinder allows roughly 45 minutes of run time. Actual consumption rates may differ depending on the user and settings.

The OXYSET (1811167-2) is fuelled by a disposable oxygen cylinder (T-PED approval number 0036) and
a disposable MAP//Pro cylinder (complying with DOT39). We recommend using Bromic oxygen
cylinders (P/N 1811320) and BernzOmatic MAP//Pro cylinders (P/N 1811120).

Does the gas/cylinder expire?

No, it doesn’t expire. The gas inside will stay pure until it is used up. The gas cylinder cannot be refilled though.

Is the Map-Pro 400g Gas cylinder resealable?

The cylinders are pin activated, so when the regulator is removed, the gas will not leak. 

Can I refill a Map-Pro 400g Gas cylinder?

No, the cylinders are disposable and shall not be refilled.

Approx. how long does the LPG version burn on 1 x 45kg cylinder?

100hrs on high. 200 hrs on low.

Can I braze and weld with this cylinder?

Yes, we have an oxyset that can be used with the 1L cylinder. It has part number 1811167-2. More information can be found on our website.

Can I order oxygen and map-pro together?

They cannot be shipped in the same container due to the DG sub-class as 5.1 which is incompatible with DG class 2.1 products.

What regulator can I use when using the Bromic oxygen cylinder?

Our 1811172-1 oxygen regulator has an M12 inlet to connect to the bottles and a 3/8” G RH connection for a hose. It has 2 gauges, 1 for the flow and another for the cylinder pressure. This regulator is compatible with oxysets branded Bromic, Ambro and Oxyturbo. This regulator is not compatible with Tradeflame (M10), Dynaweld (M10), Bernzomatic (CGA600) or Hot Devil (CGA600) oxysets.
