protecting exposed threads on torches?

Grant Erwin · 2006-01-30T16:43:00+00:00

Most torches I've owned have 9/16-18 threads for connection to the welding hose (RH for oxygen, LH for fuel). I recently bought a used torch which had little red plastic caps over the exposed 9/16" threads. I thought that was a great idea, protecting the threads. Anyone know where I can buy these little plastic caps designed to fit over torch threads?GWESeattle area

Google for "caplugs", they probably made the ones you are talking about. They will send (a few) samples if you ask nicely.
