About this Item

This is a mechanical, foot pedal controlled, gas valve assembly for rapidly turning the outer fire of the Carlisle CC Torch on and off without having to readjust the flame each time.

Plumbing for Two Stage Bench Torch With Hand Torch

The Carlisle CC Torch and Smith Little Torch are plumbed together sharing the same pair of bottles per the the below diagram. The Smith Little Torch has it's own regulators to reduce the gas pressure below the pressure required for the Carlisle CC Torch. The Carlisle CC Torch outer fire is connected via a Griffin Glass Rock-It 05 Foot Pedal with Oxygen Bypass to allow the user to rapidly turn the outer fire on and off without having to readjust the flame each time. The Oxygen bypass allows a small amount of oxygen to flow through the outer fire when it is off to prevent to torch face from overheating when using the inner fire only.
