Gator Leak Detector from A-Best Industrial Inc. Fittings, Valves, and Tubing is a ready-to-use bubble leak detector for oxygen and compressed gas systems. Apply it to a pressurized fitting, joint or valve and watch: leaks show up in 5 to 30 seconds. Large leaks form bubbles, and fine leaks build a white foam you can't miss. It's absolutely safe with pure oxygen at high or low pressure, it contains no oil, grease or fatty acid, and it dries clean with no film left on your fittings.
Our crew uses it every time we test for leaks. Keep a bottle in every tool bag.
Applications
- Instrument tube fittings, pipe threads, valves and manifolds
- Oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, helium, natural gas and air lines
- Cylinders, tanks, regulators and compressor skids
- Any system you can pressurize with air or gas
