Oxy-fuel cutting

A flame application for cutting processes that uses an oxy-fuel (typically oxy-acetylene) flame and straight oxygen as a cutting jet to separate the metal. This process is used on carbon steels and sometimes on stainless steels. Oxy-fuel cutting and welding products include oxy-acetylene and oxy-fuel welding and cutting apparatus. See Gas Flame Cutting.
