Welding Gas Bottle

[ghost]

So apparently my 40 Cft bottle is no longer filled or supplied by the local NAPA. They only deal in 80 and 125. Initial bottle is $250 I don't have right now. I looked on FBMP and not seeing anything. Anyone have a spare mix bottle they can part with?

Check to see if you have a Robert’s Oxygen or a Praxair. I know the local stores both stock the 40cf bottles. I keep one around as my backup to the 125cf so I don’t get stuck without gas on the weekend.

Yep that’s what this one was until I moved it to Camden. Will check air gas in Columbia this week I hope.

They will refill even if it’s an odd size at Robert’s

I had to buy one from northern tool in a pinch a couple years back. I don’t think it was too bad and they swap them as well.

Watch Marketplace for old torch bottles, etc. My local Airgas will swap out any high pressure bottles. I bought two old torch sets pretty cheap and swapped the Oxygen bottles for a mix and a 100% Argon. BTW, anyone need a couple Acetylene bottles?

I’m hoping air gas can refill or swap it. NAPA actually told me who they use and it wasn’t them. That saved me going to Lind and being told they don’t do that size.

There’s a service at northern tool called thoroughbred that does exchanges. I have upgraded to a larger bottle for the difference in return value

Went to Air gas in Columbia. To fill the 40 would have been $90. A 80 was $399.51. They then credited me back $192.50 for my bottle. So out the door $207.01. So now I have an 80 I can swap out local.
