Butane torch

Consumer air butane torches are often claimed to develop flame temperatures up to approximately 1,430 °C (2,610 °F).

This temperature is high enough to melt many common metals, such as aluminum and copper, and hot enough to vaporize many organic compounds as well.

Most of the times copper, silver and other metals are used for home repairs of tubes and other house things.

Butane torches are frequently employed as kitchen gadgets to caramelize sugar in cooking, such as when making crème brûlée.

[3] Butane torches are sometimes used in vaporizing cocaine free base (crack), black tar heroin, methamphetamine[4] or hash oil[5] for inhalation.
