Q 1. What processes can the Draper 35036 be used for?

A. The Draper 35036 is an oxy-acetylene welding torch set for welding, brazing, cutting (with a cutting attachment), and heating of steel and other ferrous metals.

Q 2. What safety equipment do I need with oxy-acetylene equipment?

A. Essential safety equipment: flashback arrestors on both oxygen and acetylene hoses (fit close to the torch), compatible regulators for each gas, certified hoses, shade 5 welding goggles or a welding mask for cutting/welding, and fire-resistant clothing. Never use oxy-acetylene without flashback arrestors.

Q 3. What is a flashback and how do I prevent it?

A. A flashback is when the flame burns back inside the hose and torch, potentially reaching the cylinder. Causes: blocked nozzle, hoses touching the work, incorrect pressures, or overheated torch. Prevention: always use flashback arrestors on both hoses, use correct gas pressures, keep nozzles clean, and purge hoses before lighting.

Q 4. How do I set the correct flame for welding with this torch?

A. A neutral flame (equal oxygen and acetylene) is used for most welding — the inner cone is clearly defined with no excess feather. A reducing (carburising) flame has excess acetylene (used for hard-facing). An oxidising flame has excess oxygen (used for some brazing). Adjust valves slowly from a reducing flame to neutral.

Q 5. What nozzle sizes are available for this torch?

A. Nozzle size is selected by material thickness — smaller numbers for thin sheet, larger for heavy sections. The full range of compatible nozzles (including cutting, welding, and heating nozzles) is in the Oxy-Acetylene Consumables section.

Q 6. How should I light and shut down oxy-acetylene equipment?

A. To light: open acetylene slightly, ignite with a friction lighter (never matches), increase acetylene to remove smoke, add oxygen to reach the required flame. To shut down: close the oxygen valve first, then the acetylene — this prevents soot deposition in the nozzle.

Q 7. Can I use propane instead of acetylene with this torch?

A. Propane can be used for heating and cutting (with a propane cutting nozzle) but not for welding — propane produces an oxidising flame that cannot create the neutral or reducing flame required for fusion welding. Propane cutting nozzles and regulators differ from acetylene types.

Q 8. How should I store oxy-acetylene cylinders?

A. Store cylinders upright, secured against tipping. Store oxygen and acetylene separately or with at least 3m between them. Keep away from heat sources and flammable materials. Never store with regulators fitted when not in use. Cylinders must meet local regulations on storage quantity.

Q 9. How do I know which contact tip or nozzle fits my MIG torch?

A. MIG tips and nozzles are torch-specific. Check your machine's torch type — common types include MB14, MB15, MB25, and MB36. The contact tip thread size must match your torch body. The tip bore size must match your wire diameter. Using the wrong tip or nozzle will cause poor wire feed and inconsistent welds.

Q 10. Is the Draper 35036 in stock for fast delivery?

A. Yes — UK stocked for fast despatch. Check availability at PartsForMachines.com. Orders placed before the daily cut-off are dispatched same or next working day. Check the product page for current delivery estimates.
