How HOBBYWELD works
Unlike your typical industrial gas supplier, we do not charge rental on our gas cylinders. Simply pay a one off deposit for the gas cylinder and “pay as you go” for your gas refills. We have gas mixtures available for all forms of welding, cutting and brazing – no matter if it’s steel, aluminium or stainless steel, we have the gas for you.
HOBBYWELD CYLINDER DEPOSIT
The HOBBYWELD Cylinder Deposit is a one-off, refundable charge – paid alongside the gas fill for your first cylinder. There is no limit to how long you keep the cylinder and you can exchange it as often or as little as you like.
If you need to return the cylinder, take it to any HOBBYWELD stockist for a refund (note: You will need your deposit form and a small admin charge applies, currently £10.00 +vat ).
A cost effective alternative for occasional use when compared to monthly or annual rental charges.
