So, my welding book has this big ole warning that says this:
If oxygen under pressure comes into contact with oil or grease. A violent reaction will occur.
When they say "comes into contact" does this mean the outside of the O2 cylinder or just the actual pressurized O2?
Second, Why does it cause such an explosion? What is causing the ignition if no spark or flame is present?
thanx
