Blocked gas taps

[Bruce]

I used to have restrictors when l was in London.
Arboles is the company to help here.
You can "tap" the nozzle to makea thread inside and the little restrictors are fitted using an Alan key.
It means the children can't cause any problems.
Arboles will help.
They supply the restrictions.

Hi
You may need to ask over the phone for the restrictors.
When l got it done about 20 years ago the company were developing the idea.
When you buy the gas taps these restrictors are probably already fitted.
The company owner came and fitted the restrictors to my existing nozzles by cutting a thread as you say.
It could be l was lucky as l was part of their R&D and nowadays perhaps the restrictors are only available as a part of their product range.
Sorry to confuse you.
The idea really was very successful in practice.
When l went round checking-up with the allan key, l had to be careful to make sure no-one was looking or the secret was out.
An enterprising protagonist may bring in to school their own allan key for further ['extension'] laboratory experiments.
hth.

I think it's quicker to unblock a couple then unscrew an Allen bolt each time.

The restrictor makes the hole the gas comes from a lot smaller so the task of blocking it up is more difficult.
I found l didn't get any serious blockages.
Only pencil leads.
It did solve the problem.
