Item Name:
Madhatter Flexburner FB3 Bunsen Burner
SKU:
MH-FLEXBURNER-FB3
Description:
The Madhatter Flexburner FB3 is a Bunsen burner designed to provide a stable, adjustable flame for bench work. It is used in lampworking and scientific glassblowing for tasks that benefit from a broad, even heat source that is separate from a hand torch or bench torch, such as warming sections of tubing, preheating tools, gently heating larger areas of glass, and supporting processes where you want consistent background heat. A Bunsen burner is also commonly used for flame polishing and for keeping punty rods, blowhose connections, or small assemblies warm while you work at the main torch.
How it is used:
- Set the burner up on a stable, non-combustible bench surface with appropriate ventilation
- Connect the burner to the correct fuel supply for your shop setup using proper regulators and rated hose
- Adjust the flame to the heat level you need for warming, preheating, or gentle heating tasks
- Use the flame to preheat glass and tools to reduce thermal shock before moving into a hotter working flame
- Turn off the fuel supply when finished and allow the burner to cool before storing or moving it
