No Status, they are lathe turned G-11 material. It's an epoxy glass fiber composite.

Hi Ed,
I have them on my Victor too. No problem with flow, although if I hook up my cutting torch or use a rosebud, I switch to standard hose. I never tried either with the light weight hose, so I can't comment on them with the light weight hose.

Ed yes they flow more than enough. I have cut 1/2" thick steel at 17lbs ox pressure.
Look at the setup I have with the "Y's" coming off the gas saver. If I want to use the Victor for rose bud or cutting torch to heat treat something, or an isolated heat, I just turn one set of hoses off and open the other. Either torch is ready to go with no fumbling around switching hoses. I hope this answers your question. Jere

I used sil bronze for my wheel adusting wheel
Quote:
I took two identical circles from 1/2" round bar stock, used one complete and cut the other into six equal chords: This curvy wheel cried out for nice smooth fillet joins. I decided to join it with sil bronze and my Tig. I thought this way I would get real nice fillets on compound curve joints w/o coping and also quickly and easily: In place: I consider this application a cross between art and structure, and so far it has held up very well, as expected. Thanks again Kerry, for so openly sharing your plans and experiences with wheel construction.

This is why I love this, all sorts of comments and I deas!
I tried the copper wire bit of Jere's, and compared it to SiBr. Ultimately I liked the SiBr better, I found I could put less wire in to seal the joint. If a large fillet were my goal, then I would go for the copper. Stripping the wire was a pain, I wanted to get the job done. The cost isn't bad, I think I pay 19 dollars a pound? I joined dirty metal to dirty metal, and it turned out pretty darn ok. 2015-08-25 19.45.50.jpg Marty

Easy way to strip copper is to squeeze the strand through a bead roller.This crushes the insulation and the cu pretty much falls out.
