What is a Flashback & What is a Flashback Arrestor?
- A flashback happens when a flame burns back into the torch blowpipe and travel back along one of the gas hoses, & into your gas cylinders.


- A flashback can burn inside of your hose and cause serious damage, and we have witnessed serious flashbacks that cause equipment to melt, explosion, personnel burns


- A flashback arrestor is a safety device that stops the flame from re-entering your handpiece, hoses and gas cylinders.


- Also inside a flashback arrestor is a gas non-return valve.
