Rothenberger / Bernzomatic blowtorch leak repair.

Here's how I repaired my Rothenberger Superfire 2 blowtorch. It was leaking gas through the small hole in the handle as many of them do.

Cheers. What a nice easy fix. All seals cleaned and lubed. Thanks for doing the video. 🙏👍

Thanks for doing this video. I was a plumber for 51 years and used these everyday, all day. We had this happen a lot and it even caused me to catch a lady’s closet on fire repairing a tub. When they leak it can be one hell of a fireball in your hand. We used to just throw out the torch and get another but I kept several in a box until today when my last good one failed. I figured there had to be a fix and it lead me to you.

Tank you for sharing tutorials!

Cool, questions: 1) Did you do anything to the brass plate once you screwed it in to stop it coming out again (as you drilled it), 2) What made you pick silicon over say mineral oil you used with it being a bit more viscous? do you think people could maintain it by dripping a small amount of oil onto the bottom threads (hopefully seeping into the seal?
