Default Aviators oxygen vs welding or medical oxygen.

on Sat, 11 Feb 2017 20:01:33 -0800 (PST) typed in
rec.crafts.metalworking the following:
So I got a cylinder from a friend, that is a Avox System 9700 series, 11.0 CU FT 1800 PSI. Which I really really like, but I am confuse about if I have to refill it which O2 should I use, what if I just can not get aviators oxygen?

Actually I just don't know much about this.

Can someone help me?


Oxygen is oxygen. And unless someone can explain why they are
adding an impurity to the tank, the rest is hand waving.

Adding "Aviation" or "Medical" (like "all natural" or "marine") to
the label merely means it is going to cost you more.
