Critical safety: FLASHBACK ARRESTORS MANDATORY both ends — torch end and regulator end, matched to the correct gas (oxygen or fuel). Compliance: AS 4603 (flashback arrestors), AS/NZS 4839 (cutting equipment). All 20 products in this collection are Bossweld — see our Bossweld range for the wider brand catalogue, including cutting tips and nozzles. Companion: welding hose, welding goggles, gas welding equipment, welding safety equipment, welding accessories (circle-cutting guides).
Cutting Torch Accessories
Oxy-fuel cutting and heating equipment relies on a set of accessories and consumables to work safely and reliably: flashback arrestors to stop a flame travelling back into the hose or cylinder, spark lighters to ignite the torch safely, and the mixing and heating hardware that lets a single torch handle run cutting, heating and brazing attachments. AIMS Industrial stocks the Bossweld range of oxy-fuel torch accessories for cutting and welding applications.
Flashback Arrestors
Flashback arrestors are safety devices fitted between the hose and the torch body (torch end) and, ideally, also between the hose and the regulator (regulator end) — they stop a flashback (the backflow of flame into the hose) propagating back to the cylinder. AIMS stocks Bossweld flashback arrestors as gas-specific singles — oxygen and fuel gas versions for both the torch end and the regulator end — plus twin-pack versions of each end for a quicker, matched-pair fit-out. All are compliant to AS 4603. Arrestors should be replaced, not serviced, once they've been triggered by a flashback event.
Spark Lighters & Flints
A spark lighter (striker) is the safe way to ignite a cutting torch or heating tip — never use a naked flame or a cigarette lighter. AIMS stocks single-flint and triple-flint spark lighters, plus replacement flint packs for each (single flints in packs of 10, triple flints in packs of 4) so a worn striker doesn't need full replacement.
Tip Cleaner
A clean tip orifice is essential for a good cutting or heating flame — a clogged or damaged orifice produces a ragged cut or an uneven flame. The Bossweld 100mm wire-brush tip cleaner suits Type 41 (acetylene) and Type 44 (LPG) nozzles and comes in a compact aluminium case for the toolbox.
Heating Torches & Tips
AIMS stocks heating torches across the common fuel types: an LPG professional heating torch kit that runs on air and LPG alone (no oxygen cylinder needed) with a PTX replacement/upgrade handle, MAPP/propane hand torches with cast aluminium bodies and Piezo ignition for brazing and general heating work, and an oxygen/acetylene Type 551 heating tip (8 x 12mm) that fits a standard 10mm gas mixer for pre-heat, brazing and bending on a full oxy-fuel rig.
Torch Handle, Mixer & Cutting Attachment
The Bossweld blowpipe torch handle, 3/8" (10mm) gas mixer, and cutting attachment work as a modular oxy-fuel system: the handle is the base grip, the mixer blends oxygen and fuel gas at the torch, and the cutting attachment converts the assembly into a cutting torch for heavy-duty cutting, gouging and pre-heating. All three fit standard blowpipe handles and suit both oxy-acetylene and oxy-LPG/propane service; the cutting attachment is AS/NZS 4839 compliant.
CO2 Spigot Heater
The Bossweld 240V CO2 spigot heater is an inline electric gas heater fitted between a CO₂ cylinder outlet (Ty30) and the regulator. High-flow MIG welding can drop cylinder pressure fast enough to freeze the regulator and hose — the spigot heater prevents this, keeping gas flow consistent through a long welding session.
Cutting Tips, Hoses, Goggles & Circle-Cutting Guides
Cutting tips and nozzles aren't part of this particular collection but are stocked at AIMS — see our Bossweld range for the Type 41 cutting tip and nozzle sizes. Replacement oxy-fuel hoses have their own dedicated Welding Hose collection, cutting and welding goggles are in Welding Goggles, and a circle-cutting guide for straight and circular gas-torch cuts is stocked in our Welding Accessories range. For the full oxy-fuel equipment picture, see Gas Welding Equipment and Welding Safety Equipment.

People Also Ask — Cutting Torch Accessories
Q: Why do I need flashback arrestors at both the torch end and the regulator end?
Each protects a different length of hose — a torch-end arrestor stops a flashback travelling back from the torch, while a regulator-end arrestor stops one that's already reached the hose from reaching the cylinder. Fitting both, gas-specific to oxygen or fuel at each end, gives the fullest protection along the whole hose run.
Q: Can I keep using a flashback arrestor after it's been triggered?
No — arrestors should be replaced, not serviced, once they've stopped a flashback event.
Q: What's the difference between a single-flint and a triple-flint spark lighter?
Both ignite a cutting torch or heating tip safely without a naked flame — a triple-flint lighter carries more flint segments before the cartridge needs replacing, and each uses its own separate flint refill pack (single flints in packs of 10, triple flints in packs of 4).
Q: Do I need oxygen to run the LPG heating torch kit?
No — the LPG professional heating torch kit runs on air and LPG alone, with no oxygen cylinder required, unlike the oxy/acetylene heating tip which needs a full oxy-fuel rig with a gas mixer.
Q: What does a CO2 spigot heater actually protect against?
High-flow MIG welding can drop a CO₂ cylinder's pressure quickly enough to freeze the regulator and hose — the 240V spigot heater sits inline between the cylinder outlet and regulator to keep gas flow consistent and prevent that freeze-up during long welding runs.
Q: Where do I find cutting tips, hoses or welding goggles if they're not in this collection?
Cutting tips and nozzles are stocked under our Bossweld brand range, replacement oxy-fuel hoses have their own dedicated Welding Hose collection, and welding/cutting goggles are in Welding Goggles — this collection covers flashback arrestors, ignition and heating/mixing hardware specifically.
