Brazing kits

[gregg1908]

I’m fairly new to the refrigeration and air conditioning business and would welcome some advice please. I’m in the process of buying all my equipment and would like some suggestions regarding a good mobile brazing kit ideal for domestic line sets on small air con units .

Check out the new oxy mapp gas set FSW sell, it uses small refillable 2 liter oxygen bottles and standard mapp gas ones, so is light to carry around, have a similar one and its great for anything from 1/4" up to 1 3/8"

Bit like this one but has a different style bottle carrier

There's another set similar to the FSW version Monkey Spanners mentioned called Oxy Weld.
It's available from a guy who makes them himself, he advertises on Facebook. Hmm, all sounds a bit dodgy but I ordered one and it was fine. The MAPP regulator was faulty and he swapped it no issues too.

He's called Richard Kent, hope this link works: Richard Kent | Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/groups/1481657782118203/user/100012697985218/)
The fuel is normal MAPP cans as mentioned. For the oxygen it designed to use 2lit bottles specifically from Adams Gas which do rent free bottles. It's around £25 for the bottle deposit then a tad cheaper for the bottle. Deposit gets refunded when you hand it back or just rolled over if you swap it over.

Cheers,
Andy.
