OVERVIEW

Reliable Ignition for Industrial Oxy-Fuel Operations

In a busy industrial environment, downtime caused by minor equipment failures is an unnecessary cost. The Hobart Replacement Flints (770081) are an essential consumable for any workshop utilizing oxy-fuel cutting, welding, or brazing equipment. Designed specifically for single flint strikers, these renewals ensure that your team can consistently and safely ignite their torches without delay.

This package contains five high-quality ferrocerium flints, manufactured to Hobart's rigorous standards. Ferrocerium is the industry standard for spark generation because it produces a hot, concentrated spark capable of igniting fuel gases instantly, even in drafty conditions. By keeping a stock of these replacement flints on hand, you prevent the frustration and work stoppage that occurs when a striker's flint wears down to the nub.

Maintenance and Efficiency

Replacing a flint is a simple maintenance task that restores a striker to like-new performance. Over time, the friction required to generate sparks wears down the flint material. Attempting to use a striker with a worn flint results in poor spark generation, wasted gas while attempting to light the torch, and potential safety hazards if the operator resorts to unsafe lighting methods (like cigarette lighters). These Hobart replacements fit securely and function smoothly, ensuring a crisp snap and a reliable spark every time.

Key Benefits for the Shop

  • Cost-Effective: The 5-pack quantity provides excellent value and ensures backup inventory is available at the workstation.
  • Universal Fit: While branded for Hobart, these flints typically fit most standard single-flint cup strikers found in the industry.
  • Consistent Performance: Manufactured to provide uniform hardness and spark temperature.

Equip your tool cribs and welding carts with the Hobart 770081 Replacement Flints to maintain operational efficiency and safety standards across your facility.
