Cylinders, safety & special gases in Newcastle: local notes
Engineering and steel shops in the industrial area rent argon, CO2, oxygen and acetylene, and factories run forklifts on LPG exchange. Cold, dry air hardens rubber, so check regulators and hoses before winter in Newcastle West and Fernwood. Cylinder theft is a concern in Madadeni and Blaauwbosch, so a locked, ventilated cage on a firm base is worth asking about.
Cooking, heating and working on gas in Newcastle
Newcastle sits in the north of KwaZulu-Natal near the Free State and Mpumalanga borders, where winters are cold and dry and frost on the farms is normal. That makes heater gas a large part of household demand, alongside cooking and geysers in homes that moved to gas during load shedding. LPG travels a long way by road, along the N11 and from inland depots, to dealers, refill stations and hardware stores in town, with delivery out to Madadeni and Osizweni. The steel, chemical and textile industries keep welding gas and forklift gas in demand. Keep heaters in ventilated rooms, never in a bedroom overnight, and lock cylinders away from yards.
Typical gas cages and cylinder locks requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: a double cage on the side wall for the cylinders feeding the geyser and stove
- Factories, warehouses and workshops: caged storage for canteen and heating cylinders in a fenced yard
- Gas installers, plumbers and dealers: installers and welders supplying cages with each new gas installation
