If there is a difference between welding oxygen and medical Oxygen, can anyone prove to me the difference, if it's just a tag, that is not proof, Talk is not proof, Just answer the question if you know for sure....

Hi,
I am not an expert on this matter. There are 4 types Oxygen,
aviation, welding, medical, research. As far as I know welding
Oxygen is purer than medical one, and stored pressure is higher.
