OVERVIEW

Reliable Sparks for Every Job

Every welder knows the frustration of a dead striker. You have your torch in one hand, your helmet up, and you're ready to work, but your lighter just won't spark. With the ESAB Triple Flint Friction Lighter (790F35), that frustration becomes a thing of the past. Designed for the professional who demands reliability, this striker is built to keep you working without interruption.

Three Times the Life

The standout feature of this tool is right in the name: Triple Flint. Instead of a single piece of flint that wears down flat and leaves you scrambling for a renewal, this striker features a rotating triangular head holding three distinct flints. When one wears out, you don't have to stop and rebuild your tool. Simply rotate the head to the next position, and you have a brand-new flint ready to throw a massive spark. It’s like having three lighters in one, ensuring you can get your flame going and your bead laid down faster.

Built for the Shop

Plastic lighters don't belong in a welding shop—they are dangerous and fragile. This ESAB striker is made from durable, plated steel that can take a beating. Whether it gets dropped on concrete, tossed in a toolbox, or exposed to the heat of the job, it holds up. The strong spring tension in the handle ensures a crisp, hard strike every time, generating a large shower of sparks that ignites your torch instantly, even in drafty conditions.

Safety First

Using a proper friction lighter is about more than just convenience; it's about safety. Cigarette lighters can explode if a spark hits them, and matches are unreliable and messy. The cup design on the 790F35 traps the gas from your torch tip, allowing for ignition that keeps your fingers away from the flame front. It is the professional, safe, and smart way to light up. Equip your station with a striker that works as hard as you do.
