JAVAC Maxy Flame Kit Introducing the Maxy Flame Kit (MFK) from JAVAC - the MFK is a portable welding and brazing kit, packed with extra features designed with the engineer in mind. One of the main reasons behind the development of the MFK was the increasing restrictions around the use of Acetylene on site. This inevitably has created the demand for another welding & brazing solution for Engineers. You will find the usual components within the kit including; regulators, arrestors, goggles, ignitor and shank. However, it’s the trolley and hoses within the kit that have been adjusted and modified to improve the Engineers experience. TOOLS TALK – SPONSORED BY ASPEN PUMPS 12 June | July 2021 Volume 7 No.4 Firstly, the hoses within the kit have been extended to 5 metres in length allowing for better access to those hard to reach areas. Previously, Engineers had been forced into buying additional, longer hose sets to complement their existing kits, as hoses that were included in the original kits were often too short. Therefore, with this additional hose length it should have everything the Engineer needs to get the job done. The second amendment is the bespoke trolley. It has a dual Maxy Gas cylinder holder and a footprint to fit a 5-litre oxygen cylinder, along with an extended handle for ease of transportation. The adaptable trolley will also support a mid-size nitrogen cylinder giving the Engineer flexibility on site. When using disposable cylinders of high-performance fuel gas (Maxy Gas) and used in conjunction with oxygen, the MFK will attain temperatures of 3000 degrees – suitable for brazing up to 2-inch pipe. A must-have on site, this product will be available to the market mid-June. www.javac.co.uk (Gas cylinders not included)
