Cylinders, safety & special gases in Rustenburg: local notes
Contractors on the platinum belt rent oxygen, acetylene and argon mixes from industrial gas suppliers near the Rustenburg industrial area and Mooinooi, and should chain cylinders upright and fit flashback arrestors. Warehouses and engineering yards along the N4 and in Kroondal run LPG forklifts on an exchange cage. Cylinder theft from yards in Boitekong and Marikana is a concern, so ask about lockable, ventilated cages bolted to a slab.
