Product Description
The Aquaflame 500 is a compact hydrogen torch that runs on distilled water. An internal electrolysis cell splits water into hydrogen and oxygen, producing a clean oxyhydrogen flame — no gas cylinders, no pressure tanks. The only byproduct is water vapor, which makes it a good fit for enclosed workspaces. Used for soldering and brazing gold, silver, stainless steel, and select titanium alloys, as well as acrylic polishing and dental lab work.
Features
- Runs on distilled water and an electrolyte solution. No gas cylinders or pressure tanks required!
- Reaches 3,300°C — handles platinum, gold, silver, and stainless steel
- 5 tip sizes included (#20–#24, 0.60–0.31mm bore)
- Built-in flashback arrestor for continuous-use safety
- Single-operator system with a compact bench footprint
