Gas forge regulator blacksmithing save gas 20-40%
The modification is the use of two valves on the gas inlet line. They are configured in a parallel arrangement with one of them a normal ball valve (on/off), and the other a needle valve to allow precise control of a small gas flow to the burner. With this arrangement you can adjust the input gas pressure to whatever working pressure you need using the regulator, and then with the "on/off" valve to the "off" position, adjust the needle valve for a minimum burn level, an idle flow rate.
With this arrangement you can instantly shut the forge down to a minimum burn rate while you are at the anvil, and when you return to the forge can instantly return to your full working pressure with just a flip of the "on/off" valve. Since you sometimes spend extended periods at the anvil this results in considerable gas savings 20-40% to shut off the forge you will use the individual burner valve. I highly recommend this modification.
You also get a quick disconnect on the forge so that you can easily disconnect the propane tank. This is a very useful addition.
If you interest in 2 or 3 or 4 or etc. burner s regulator just let us know. 2 or 3 or 4 or etc. regulators have additional valves to disconnect or connect 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. burners.
Installation of this regulator is very easy you have just connect cupper pipe 8mm (0.32 ) x 750mm (30 ) to your burner and hose to your gas regulator. Hose is not included.
