WDW101 - Smith WDW101 Acetylene Oxygen Gas Saver with Pilot Light

Stop Burning Money and Time

Every welder knows the frustration of setting the perfect neutral flame, only to have to shut the torch down to move a part, and then start the whole lighting and adjusting process over again. The Smith WDW101 Gas Saver (also known as the Gasaver™) changes the game for production brazing and welding. It acts as a "third hand" on your bench, holding your torch and managing your gas flow so you can focus on the work.

How It Works

Using the WDW101 is incredibly simple. When you are done with a weld, you don't close the valves on your torch handle. Instead, you simply hang the torch on the Gasaver's hook. The weight of the torch pushes the arm down, which triggers the internal valves to shut off the flow of oxygen and acetylene completely. The flame goes out, but your settings on the torch handle remain untouched. When you are ready to weld again, just lift the torch off the hook. The gas starts flowing immediately. Pass the tip over the built-in pilot light, and whoosh—you are back in business with the exact same flame you had before.

Why You Need It

• Save Gas: Why pay for acetylene and oxygen that just heats up the air? If you weld intermittently, this device can pay for itself in gas savings alone.
• Save Time: No more fiddling with knobs every few minutes. Lift, light, and weld. It speeds up your workflow dramatically.
• Stay Safe: A burning torch sitting on a bench is a hazard. The WDW101 ensures the flame is out whenever the torch isn't in your hand.

Built for the Shop

This isn't a flimsy gadget; it's a heavy-duty brass tool made in the USA by Smith Equipment (Miller). It is designed to sit firmly on your workbench and handle the daily grind of a welding shop. The pilot light is adjustable, so you can keep it as a small, efficient bead of fire. Whether you are doing production runs or just want a more efficient setup for your garage, the WDW101 makes oxy-acetylene work smoother, safer, and cheaper.
