Blazer GT8000 Big Shot Butane Torch
Description
The Blazer GT8000 Big Shot butane torch is a refillable, gas torch with a
brass frame nozzle, and attachable base. The torch creates a precise flame,
emitting from a nozzle head, allowing direct heat application to an object. It
is used for detailed purposes such as brazing, plumbing, soldering, jewelry
making, and culinary, dental and lab applications.The GT8000 has an anti-
flare, brass frame nozzle, for safety and flame control. Its design is
intended for a low blow-out rate, when held in various positions, or where
access is difficult, or space is limited. Its head is angled and it comes with
an attachable, tabletop base for hands-free work. It features a gas-flow
adjustment dial to control flame length.The torch houses a piezoelectric
ignition system, which is based on a pressurized molecular reaction, and
requires no electrical connection. Piezoelectric energy occurs when the
trigger is activated, releasing a small, spring-loaded internal hammer that
strikes a crystal, producing a spark and resulting in gas flame ignition.With
a maximum flame temperature of 2,500 degrees F, the GT8000 has a continuous
burn time of approximately 35 minutes, at maximum fuel volume, and has a
35-gram gas capacity. The torch has an angled head, and its flame range is
1.25 to 5.0 inches. It has a safety component that offers manual lock of the
ignition, when not in use. It measures 7.5 (l) x 5.25 (w) x 2.0 (d) inches,
weighs 12.0 ounces and has a black body finish. This product is intended
