Oxygen-Fuel Gas Welding and Cutting - Cylinders

The potential dangers related to cylinders containing compressed gases require that cylinders be stored and operated properly. Operation must emphasize the absence of oily or greasy substances. Follow these rules of operation:
  • Cylinders, cylinder valves, couplings, regulators, hose, and apparatus shall be kept free from oily or greasy substances
  • Oxygen cylinders or apparatus shall not be handled with oily hands or gloves
  • A jet of oxygen must never be permitted to strike an oily surface, greasy clothes, or enter a fuel oil or other storage tank.
