One of the most crucial aspects of welding safety in Australia is flashback arrestor testing, which ensures the safety and functionality of arrestors in gas welding and cutting equipment. This procedure involves inspecting and testing arrestors at least once every 12 months to verify their effectiveness in preventing dangerous reverse gas flow and explosions. As a fundamental component of weld and safety protocols, regular flashback arrestor testing not only complies with industry standards but also significantly reduces the risks associated with welding operations.
