Cold-Shot Brochure

With a Cold-Shot, you don’t have

to drain water lines, sprinkler

systems, or hot water systems

before cutting pipe or tubing.

It keeps a fully pressurized

system operating while you make repairs.

The Cold-Shot freezes liquids in steel, copper, cast iron,

aluminum and plastic pipes ranging from 1/8" through 2"

(10 to 60mm) using carbon dioxide (CO

2). Dip tube-type

2 cylinders are available from any welding supply house.

The Cold-Shot works faster than “refrigerator-type”

units, is more compact and less expensive. It’s

faster and uses less CO

2 than “bag-type” pipe

freezers, because the freeze head makes a

better seal around the pipe. In ﬁve minutes

you’re ready to go to work on 1/2" copper

tubing, and just three minutes for

cast iron pipe.

time, money,

and headaches with

® The Cold-Shot is easy to use. Just place the freeze head around the pipe, attach the hose, and open the cylinder valve. Liquid carbon dioxide will flow into the freeze head and form dry ice with a temperature of minus 110F° (-79C°). That’s cold enough to form an ice pack that can withstand 7,000 psi, yet won’t damage pipes.
