i have been it the machine repair field for 30 pus years and i never used propane for the cutting gas on a torch system as the companies always had acyetlene. and i have a set of torches and the same thing for me, i used acyetlene. but now being retired i find the gas has got way out of my price range, so i figure for what i use the set for propane would be a good feul gas for heating and i'm guessing i could cut with it as well. i asked the local college that i got my certificate at and that instructor will not tell me the adapter i need to get the acetylene regulator and propane tank connected up with.
i did a lot i research but still can't find out if there is one. even ebay. i have yet to stop into the tank supply place yet so if i do not find an answer here i may have to drive 30 miles to find out. when i worked i got my tanks replaced form the same place the shop did so they delivered them to the shop and i took them home. did not have to drive 30 miles. anyway i figure a tone of guys on this site have this same setup and may tell me the kind of adapter i need to connect the gauge to the tank. i may be that i'm just do not know the exact name to ask for. thanks
