I was looking at buying one from America a rather big saving.I have the flex loc CK torches and I really like them. Very easy to change angles
Septics don't use BSP, it'll be supplied with male UNF (various sizes inc LH threads sometimes but usually that's with watercooled torches). Swapping the hose tail isn't straightforward as shielding gas (or coolant return with watercooled torches) go through the power lead and threaded adaptors often aren't easy to buy off the shelf so you might have make them. Another way is to buy an American DINSE adaptor with the torch, assuming your machine uses a gas through dinse adaptorI was looking at buying one from America a rather big saving

How are my welds.

Cheers building an adapter wouldn't put me of (do a bit of lathe and mill work)
I do intend to make my own super flex hose so I can put on what ever end I want. Just time allowing i also don't run a water cooled torch so that simplifies the matter a great deal.
And opinions on welds above?

Good to know.I get them with the british 3/8 BSP fitting on them Pete
Good to know.
All i was trying to point out is that 'simply' ordering a torch from the States is gonna result in getting something with 3/8 x 24tpi or 7/8 x 14tpi (depending on torch size) or even 5/8 x 18tpi fittings and for watercooled torches things get weirder/more varied for example 7/8 x 14tpi LH male for power/water return
Amusing
How will you do that?I do intend to make my own super flex hose
