Issues on pulsating can usually be resolved by inserting some heat resistant fibrous materials or sleeves along the entire length of the...
That's an early one. Produced just a year after the 1932 patent. From the appearance and past repairs, I would strongly feel that its going to run...
Sometimes, assembling this piece in the opposite direction could seal that up by purely metal-to-metal contact:[ATTACH] Couldn't remember the...
In my location, they come with standard iso metric coarse thread, M6 x 1.0mm, not #4-40 tpi.
Interesting. I have also used those MK8 print nozzles as a jet before. Not on a pressure lamp but in an experiment to test how does the gas mantle...
This is my first view on such a gauge face/dial plate marking. I am also ignorant on the exact meaning of the marking letters. Is it IMP or 1MP?...
While I'm not referring to the Mannesmann, actually working and starting out with mostly poorly-made or 'lower-quality' clones can have its plus...
It sure is burning brightly. Working like a charm. Mannesmann lanterns are made in China. Not sure how the manufacturing is affliated or connected...
Welcome Russ. Do not hesitate. Buy it regardless of what. Figure out how to make it work later. :lol: It doesn't need a pump. Operates like what...
Hi, @Malmen Have you gotten your Petromax to work correctly after the earlier issues? Sure. Schott Germany supplies a frosted version of the...
Within the limits on the lantern's construction, this won't be likely. It is more likely that more air would be introduced provided the fuel...
I assume this is a continuation from your earlier thread on this Petroflam. The lantern cannot be regulated in the correct sense. It should only...
Right place at the right time. Perfectly functional, just the glass globe missing.
Try to pressure it to slightly above 2 bar or 2kgf/cm² and observe how does it pulse. If it is really pulsing, then the 'rhythm' should be...
Indeed...Caswell isn't cheap :shock: I'm sure there are still many epoxy products around. Many can be found in art and hobby shops for casting...
With care, the old, deformed lead seal can be removed with a pick and some determination. Usually, I'd just leave them in if they're too...
Congratulations. It looks a lot brighter than before in the pictures. Sometimes, you'd be surprised by the amount of carbon that could be found...
What store is that place? General antiques or specially for old lamps? Nice lamp.
Other than during rapid torch startups, 1 to 1.5 bar is a little low for sustained operation of the Petromax 829. Many smaller lanterns would work...
I'm sorry @Piotrek , From what I'm aware of, there aren't many products that similar in composition as Caswell on the automotive gas tank sealers...
