So I had a stuck, crosshead bolt in a uPVC door handle, which I needed to remove. And I could not turn the bolt and my screwdriver was burring the head. I was very sceptical about a liquid helping me to shift the stuck bolt. But then the alternative was going to be to drill the head of the bolt out. So I decided to (sceptically) purchase some Screw Grab and try it. (Sceptically) Popped a drop of the liquid on the end of my screwdriver and placed it in the head of the bolt. And I followed your advice and wiggled it gently, until I felt the connection between the screwdriver and the bolt become firm. And then …. I was able to turn the bolt, without the screwdriver slipping in the head. Wow! So Thank You, Dean for the great video and advice.
I've just looked at DP50... Bulldog don't do a version of that but I'm certain you'd be pleased with this one.. And as always, we are no quibble. If its not what you'd expect we will accept a return ♥️
We don't advocate cutting them like this but did this to demonstrate they will empty 🙂 Left plenty time between emptying & then cutting. By removing the pin, these cylinders can be marked empty & then safely recycled ♻rather than the current method of leaving these with the pins in & the issues that come with that No MacDonalds were harmed in this experiment 😍
I work with LPG,am an accredited refiller,if you dnt want to fly through the roof, always fill a gas cylinder/canister with water,this way u stay grounded😅
We sat it in a sink of warm water for about 20 mins after emptying it - It didn't fill but I would say it got around 75% full of warm water. We them allowed that to empty before cutting! Is that enough to clear it? I probably should have let it sit longer! 🙂 Thank you for your advice... It is needed as you can see. 🤣
Cutting through a gas cylinder with an angle grinder seems extremely risky. It is possible that there might be an explosive air/gas mixture left even when cylinder ‘empty’. Why not take empties back to your supplier and insist they return them to manufacturer for safe recycling?
This is why we are promoting this Allen Key allowing installers to fully empty the canisters Grinding it open was just demonstrate that they are easily emptied making them fully recyclable ♻️🙂
Was waiting for you to keel over with fumes😳 But seriously great information and hopefully will plumbers to dispose of safely. Might be worth speaking to the manufacturer/supplier who should be helping you and the trade to recycle for future or other use - circular economy.
Thank you Alexander. I would say very few of these are recycled properly! Installers don't really know know how to but with this simple wee key, they can safely dispose/recycle ♻️ Thank you for watching and commenting ❤
Hi...Leave around ten mins to set & you can put water through the join. After 24hrs it will hold up to 700Bar 😯. Very important the threads are new & clean. Old, pre used threads are less suitable as you can never get them properly clean. If you need any help get in touch 😊
Minor point, video back to front, guessing you used the selfie lens but thanks very much for the tip. Doing a radiator at the moment so will try it out.😊
Nice video. I just spent ages pumping up a high level vessel on an unvented system using a small pump like that. I’ve just ordered a 2m long Schraeder hose that I can use with a decent capacity foot pump on the floor. The other option is an electric car tyre pump but then you’d need a 12V DC supply…
Great video and well presented! I’ll be heading to MacDonald Plumbing because of Jamie’s other recommendations now. Well well well a boy from Glendale on the big screen :)
