Has any one used these on gas oxygen and propane fittings are they worth a buy or not seen em advertised on rapid welding
...not worth bothering with
i use airline connections on tails from my bottles (female) and have fitted male connectors on all my machines...
true..LOL i have a thread somewhere in the past here explaining when i connected my oxy tail to my mig thinking it was the ArgoshieldYes, "normal airline" quick connect probes, are 9.5mm dia (I guess 3/8") in the body - just checked one in the workshop , so they are different to my oxy/fuel connectors.
Also, front most end is 6.8mm dia for oxy and 7.3mm dia for propane (whereas "normal airline" is 6.35mm dia or 1/4").
I guess one advantage of my set-up is that it is "idiot-proof" with different dia for fuel and oxy...
I am getting more senile by the day, so anything that prevents me burning my house is welcome
