Oxygen reg for disposable tanks

**smokinghole** · 08-20-2010, 05:33 PM

I know they can be purchased easily online. However I was looking to pick one up locally. I have exhausted all my usual hardware store sources.

Does anyone know who or what store (welding supply maybe?) would possibly carry the left hand threaded regulator? I didn't think it'd be that difficult. If I can't get one locally today I'll just aerate my normal way and order the damn regulator from Williams or something.

thanks

The only time I've seen one locally is part of a Mapp/O2 brazing kit. It's got dual screw on valves and a pair of short hoses that lead to a burn tip. The kit including the disposable tanks was $50 at Lowes. It's certainly no bargain unless you think you want to do some brazing.

Thanks for the quick reply. I figured that's the only way they might come but I wanted tap the crafty minds here before I waved the white flag.
