HI-THERM INDANE CUTTING GAS

By Niraj M Wanikar, Chief Editor, CNCTimes.com, 2017-08-14 19:08:00

Indane NANOCUT

For high-temperature Industrial applications.

Indigenously developed Proprietary additive formulation.

Additive enhances the effectiveness of LPG as cutting gas.

  • high flame temperature
  • low oxygen consumption
  • Improved economy
  • Improved Safety

 

Indane-Nanocut provides Industrially Acceptable and Safe Alternative to Oxy-Acetylene based Cutting applications.

Oxy Acetylene v/s Indane NANOCUT

 Conventionally metal cutting involves usage of Oxy Acetylene mixture

  • High shock sensitivity
  • Very large flammability range (2.5-81%).
  • Very High Cylinder Pressure (18-20 kg/sq cm)
  • Prone to flashback & explosion
  • Decomposes with heat and shock
  • Highly hazardous in fire
  • Costly
  • Poor Availability

Indane Nanocut is evolved through extensive field trials and testing by various laboratories, establishing superior performance
