What makes welding with Qlixbi so revolutionary?

On/off lever
On/Off Lever reduces risk of gas leaks and leaving cylinder on overnight or weekends.

Hi-res gas reserve indicator
Hi-res gas reserve indicator goes red with 30 min's gas remaining. (Approx estimate of the welding time at the rate of 15L per minute with a 50L 230 bar cylinder, variable according to the welding working being carried out).

Robust and practical handling.
Look forward to robust and practical handling for your welding work. With Qlixbi you are on the safe side! You can change the bottle without the connector. The transport wheel can then be easily grasped and makes the bottle safe to roll. This means that no valve can open accidentally - no risk of a high-pressure leak.
And no matter how you change your working position: you simply rotate the Qlixbi connector with you - through 360°.
Connect with Qlixbi Classic in 5 easy steps
Attach your regulator

After initial attachment your Qlixbi stays with you and your regulator.
Couple the cylinder

Your Qlixbi clicks in to the cylinder. No spanner, no wrench required. Your Qlixbi rotates through 360o so you can position the regulator at any position.
Turn the gas on

Lift the red lever up to open the gas flow. Use the regulator to manage the gas flow. That's it! You're ready to weld!
What do our customers say who work with Qlixbi?
TWA Certifications Limited

“Here at TWA Certifications, Qlixbi has made a real difference in how our training school runs. Gone are the days of all day changing bottles and finding bottle spanners. Qlixbi has reduced the time to a few minutes rather than the 10 minute process we are all used to. As time is always short in any training environment as everyone is wanting your attention, Qlixbi’s unique click on connector has now allowed us to have more time with all of our learners. Not only are we saving time it ensures all bottle changes are easy, quick, safe and no leaks, no wastage. Qlixbi is having a big, positive impact in our environment and would recommend it to any other welding business.”
Kevin Birmingham
Director and Owner of TWA Certifications Limited
Norlec Sheet Metal

"Our welders are all very positive about the Qlixbi, not just about the click-on connector but also because of the hi-vis gas reserve indicator. Before we had Qlixbi, we didn’t use gas level indicators so the welder had no idea that he was about to run out of gas."
