What the heck

admin

So I'm looking through a procedure we have for a piece of equipment and it requires heating with a "saline torch."  Every search I do on the net turns up the term only with regards to neurosurgery.Now I know we do some really cutting edge testing out here on state of the art equipment, but this thing ain't any of the cool stuff, so....What the heck is a saline torch?  KalroyKalroy"It's all about the OODA Loop."
Reply:Geographic terminology for Acetylene torch ???????
Reply:Maybe it was supposed to be a Saleen torch, like a Saleen Mustang...
Reply:Saline torches are used in alot of endoscopic surgeries. Are you sure it didn't read "propylene torch"?John -  fabricator extraordinaire, car nut!-  bleeding Miller blue! http://www.weldfabzone.com
Reply:Yup.  The T.O. calls for a "saline torch."   Mind you, we'll be using an oxy-acetylene torch, but I'm still wondering what a saline torch is.KalroyKalroy"It's all about the OODA Loop."
