HI-THERM INDANE CUTTING GAS
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
