I am tired of keep buying the small gas bottles from machine mart as they last about 5 mins, i wondered if anyone knows where I can get a bigger gas bottle from - I don't need or have space for anything massive if possible i'd like something the size of the BBQ gas bottles

we're just an agent for air liquide so if you can find one in your neck of the woods enquire about something called an albee cylinder

BOC shops sell an adapter pipe to connect larger bottle of welding gas to the small tube gas pipes you see on small welding sets.

Hi, quite a few places will charge you rent on a bottle, however down in hampshire the local stockist for air liquid sells the 4ft c02 bottles for £20 and that has no cover charge or rental on. Air Liquide are the only gaff I know that don't charge rent. Id search for a local distributor and see what there prices are. if its a treck get a couple that ul last you a month or so! hope this was helpful

If you go by £/volume, the air liquide cyls are significantly more expensive than a rental with boc.

Energas in Huthwaite? Rental, but not expensive. They save loads in the long term compared to the disposables

I had a similar problem when my existing cylinder ran out. Not sure how they stack up on price, but I've currently got an Adams gas cylinder. It came through a local stockist and I had to pay a deposit, but that's it payment wise whether I use it in a month or two years. www.adamsgas.co.uk/ |
