Strange one this... And probably impossible to prove..
Well, I swapped my small X bottle of Pureshield Argon for a Y bottle at my local BOC supplier.
Nice bloke there. No reason to think he's dodgy. Great service..
Well, I took it home and as I was busy with other work It's been sat untouched for 2 weeks with the cap on and the tap well locked.
I plugged in my regulator and it showed zero fill... Now, it's a cheap reg that came with my R-tech AC/DC so I thought it was goosed as there was still decent gas flow so got on with a bit of Ally welding.
10 mins later... NO GAs..
I swapped the reg's around off my MIG bottle and the regulator is working fine. The bottle is empty...
Has anyone had this before ??????????????
Do I just have to absorb this cost ?? I can't prove I haven't used it ..
I'll give them a ring tomorrow but I can't see what I can say... Any ideas ????
