The only thing it does is make the flame burn hotter, also once the steel is to temp, you push the oxygen handle on the torch, and the oxygen stream blows the molten steel away. That is why on the bottles it doesn't say FLAMMABLE. It says OXIDIZER. Gee I actually use it in a flammable device. Ever work in a weld and fab shop. Didn't think so.

Nope, never worked in one and don't want to. I used to watch the welders at the paper mill when I was much younger and knew then that I didn't want to be close to that. So let me understand, the oxygen that you use is not "explosive", but what about the medical use type of oxygen tanks?

Sorry, I'm stupid about this stuff. However I'm trying to learn.
