What is a Flashback?

A flashback occurs when a flame travels backward through the gas hose or regulator, igniting the gas mixture and causing an explosion.

How a Flashback Arrester Works

A flashback arrester is typically installed between the gas regulator and the torch. It contains a porous material that acts as a flame barrier.

If a flashback occurs, the flame is extinguished within the arrester before it can reach the gas supply.
