MAPP Gas Safety
Posted: Sat Sep 04, 2021 11:20 am
Hello All,
I have done my own research, reached out to others yet I have no definitive answer, I also find forums confusing and couldn't get an exact straight answer here so I'm reaching out some more.
I am half way through assembling my first steel cannon and have been told not to compress acetylene (which I agree) so I have decided to go for MAPP Gas but have also been told that is unstable also and shouldn't pressure it outside of the bottle or use with ball valves, contradicting everything I've seen on this site and as I'm aware of no one has lost their face.
1. Can I use mapp gas in a ball valved and regulator metring system?
I've calculated I'll need to pressure the MAPP Gas to 3 Bar.
Will I survive?
