Question Flashback Arrestor?

Where would I go, on a Sunday, to purchase a Flashback Arrestor?

I live in Hayward, CA. I just got a new Nortel Minor and have a borrowed Oxycon. The only thing left is the Flashback Arrestor, and I will finally be up and running!

Thanks in advance!

You might try a larger hardware store or sears.
It's cheaper to just call instead of driving all over hopeing.

So I should just ask about a Flashback arrestor, and they will know what I should get, right?

Check with Home Depot or Lowes, ask for the department that handles welding equipment. I haven't seen them in many of the big box stores but they show up occasionally. You'll may just have to order them if you can't get to a welding supply during the week. Around here they close on Friday afternoon and don't open until Monday. No welding goodies on the weekend.
