Mapp is much hotter than propane. Doing refrigeration work, I've done stick

I've not used my acetylene torch in years.

I tried to make up an elbow joint of 1" copper at my furnace a while ago
and couldn't get it hot enough, so called on a friend who arrived with
MAPP and voila! Good clean sweat - easy as pie. So if you need extra heat
go with MAPP.

Cheers,

Actually, I've not used my acetylene torch in years.

Can I have it?
