THE SCARIEST FLAMES IN CONSTRUCTION...
TIGER TORCHES

Underestimating the power of the mighty Tiger Torch is a life-threatening risk that is taken daily by tradespeople in the construction industry. People can be easily fooled by the physical appearance of the Tiger Torch, not realizing that within its simple & sleek design is a sleeping dragon, ready to lash out with its fiery propane at all times. Keep the following points in mind before using a Tiger Torch in any operation:

  • When a torch is being used, a fire-extinguisher must be present
  • Torches should never be used to heat work areas or for thawing lines & equipment
  • Ensure that propane bottles are fully shut off when a torch is not being used
  • Fuel lines must have regulators
  • Propane bottles must be secured in an upright position at all times

Even though a Tiger Torch can offer countless benefits in many applications, its fierce repercussions should never be forgotten. Regardless of your level of experience with using Tiger Torches, extreme care must always be taken because propane can be one of the most unforgiving gases on the face of the earth.
