Abs and pvc are just different types of plastic.
There is no super secret to it.
ABS and pressure rated PVC have different purposes.
ABS can take pressure, it has great strength, but it can't take pressure for a long time like pvc.
Get over it, Abs in a combustion outperforms pvc in evry way.
Its black, It wont break if dropped, it tears if their was a freak accident, it weighs less.
I hear of pvc combustions breaking more than abs.

ok first of all that guy is an idiot for using propane and OXYGEN in an ABS cannon, just wanted to point that out. SpudBlaster I never said ABS loses strength fron day to day. And it doesn't matter I'm going to use pressure rated fittings. I think that we can ALL agree that that would be better than using ABS.

No!! abs is the best for combustions becuase it only spiders when it blows.
It does not matter if he was an idiot. Why look at his cannons they survived how many shots at pure oxegen and CUTTING tourch fuel now
answer me this how many shots would pvc stand of that combination?

MisterSteve124 wrote:SpudBlaster you are wrong ABS is just not pressure rated. PERIOD you don't know it can take the 40-60psi (unless you study ABS or something). And SpudStuff I just don't want it to explode at all so I am going to stick with pressure rated PVC. I'm not trying to make an arguement or anything here but I'm just going to find pressure rated PVC fittings.
You act liek abs is a ticking time bomb.
Abs is stronger and has more impact strenght than pvc, so a spike of pressure would be better handled by abs.
ABS can be used in oxy acelytene guns because of that.
Pvc would grenade.
And to the guy who said aerosol and propane are equal in power.
You are an idiot.
Propane outperforms aerosal in every way.
Perfect mixtures, no residue, no misfires.

Recruit just because mapp gas is used for cutting torches doesn't mean it makes a bigger boom. It just burns at higher temperatures. Abs isn't as good as pressure rated pvc but I guess its not that much different compared to dvw pvc but it doesn't matter because you should just use pressure rated pvc. And I really hate how Home Depot and Lowe's only carry pressure rated fittings up to 2 inches and only 3 inch caps. It is so annoying, why can't they carry them in 3 inch too!?

Ok let me explain more heat means the faster the gas expands.

Then why would people use propane besides it being cheap? Aerosols have other non flammable ingredients so the whole thing isn't flammable. Pure propane is all flammable. Of course it is stronger than aerosols. It is 100% flammable where aerosols have other ingredients that don't do you any good. People wouldn't favor propane just because it's a little better. It's a lot better.
Recruit I guess I see your point but it wouldn't make that much of a difference than propane.

its 100% propane how much do u think is flammable in starter fluid it says 50% either on most of them. Plus theres probably some propane to get it out of the can so lets even say 70% of flammable stuff. 100% compared to 70% and the 100% is almost perfectly measured. I think you would definetly notice the difference easily.
