What is the maximum flame temperature that MAPP gas can produce?

The maximum flame temperature for MAPP (in Oxygen) is 2,929°C . It has a high heat release in the primary flame (15,445kJ/m³), which is less than for Acetylene, similar to Propylene and higher than that for Propane (table 1).

How hot does Bernzomatic MAPP gas get?

3,730°F.
Map-Pro is premium fuel suited for a variety of job site projects including soldering large copper pipes, brazing, and heat treating. The durable steel cylinder is slim and lightweight for easy gripping and maneuvering. MAP-Pro fuel has an in-air flame temperature of 3,730°F.

Does MAP-Pro burn hotter than MAPP gas?

MAPP (5300*F) burns much hotter than MAP-Pro (3730*F) or propane (3600*F). Propane at around $3 per bottle and MAP-Pro at around $10 from local big box stores (US).

Is MAP gas hotter than acetylene?

However, the flame they produce is much hotter. So at first glance, the Mapp gas solution looks much better to many contractors and technicians. However, the hotter temperature of the oxygen-acetylene rig is a very important factor that should not be overlooked.

Does MAP gas burn hotter than propane?

MAP-Pro gas burns at a temperature of 3,730 degrees Fahrenheit, while propane burns at 3,600 F. Because it heats copper faster and to a higher temperature, MAP-Pro gas is a superior alternative to propane for soldering. If you opt to use it, the manufacturer recommends using a specially designed torch.

What burns hotter butane or MAPP gas?

MAPP gas, made from combining liquefied petroleum and methylacetylene-propadine, burns the hottest, around 3650 degrees F, or 2010 degrees C.

How hot will a Bernzomatic torch get?

3,600 degrees Fahrenheit
Constructed of durable steel, the slim, lightweight cylinder is easy to grip and maneuver as you work. This product is compatible with our Digital Fuel Gauge to easily measure how much fuel is remaining in the cylinder. Propane fuel has an in-air flame temperature of 3,600 degrees Fahrenheit.

Why was MAPP gas discontinued?

It is no longer used much in any large-scale industry – for larger scale users acetylene/oxygen is more economic than MAPP/oxygen when high flame temperatures are needed, and propane/air is more economic when big overall heating is needed.

What replaced MAPP gas?

BLUEFIRE Modern MAPP is a modern substitute to the traditionally known MAPP fuel gas, which was discontinued since 2008.

How hot is the flame from a Bernzomatic propane torch?
