0916-0122C - TurboTorch MAP-Pro Cylinder 14.1oz CGA600

Technical Overview of the ESAB TurboTorch MAP-Pro Cylinder

The ESAB TurboTorch MAP-Pro Gas Cylinder (SKU: 0916-0122C) represents the industry standard for high-performance handheld fuel gases. Designed as a direct replacement for the discontinued MAPP gas, this cylinder contains premium propylene fuel, engineered to deliver a higher burning temperature and superior heat transfer compared to standard propane. This specific SKU is tailored for the Canadian market, featuring compliant bilingual labeling and safety instructions required by Transport Canada regulations.

Technically, the cylinder utilizes a CGA 600 connection (1"-20 UNEF thread), which is the universal standard for handheld torches, including the TurboTorch Extreme series and compatible hardware from other manufacturers. The fuel chemistry allows for a flame temperature in air of approximately 3,730°F (2,054°C), making it suitable for silver brazing, copper soldering, and general heating applications where speed and thermal intensity are critical. The cylinder body is manufactured to DOT-39 and TC-39M specifications, ensuring structural integrity under pressure while remaining lightweight and portable for field use.

For industrial MRO applications, this cylinder provides a reliable heat source for HVAC technicians and plumbers requiring mobility without the bulk of an oxy-acetylene setup. The propylene formulation ensures a clean burn with minimal soot, provided the correct air-fuel mixture is maintained by the torch venturi. It is particularly effective for brazing copper linesets up to 1-1/8" diameter, offering a significant efficiency advantage over propane in time-sensitive repair scenarios.

Regulatory and Safety Compliance

As a hazardous material container, the 0916-0122C is strictly regulated. It is a non-refillable cylinder designed for single use. Users must adhere to all safety protocols regarding storage, transport, and disposal. The "Haz Tank" designation in the product name emphasizes the need for proper handling of pressurized flammable gases. This product is essential for professionals who demand consistent pressure and calorific output in variable environmental conditions.
