The product, in the report: Propane Torch
Propane Torch hose failed. I posted to Harbor Freight on their site: “FATAL INCIDENT POTENTIAL - The Propane Torch, Item #91033, S.N. 361441753 suffered a hose separation from the tank connection fitting. This separation allowed propane to escape with the potential of severely burning me. Luckily, as soon as the fitting failed, I tossed the hose and hot wand away from the tank to prevent ignition. I have photos and will gladly share them with you or the Consumer Protection Agency. Please correct this manufacturing error before someone is killed or severely injured. Thanks for your time. [REDACTED]”
I followed up with and email : “One of your SKU 91033 Propane Torches had a malfunction that could possibly cause severe injury or death. The hose separated from the tank connector because the hose was not crimped properly to that connector. I took every precaution to ensure that the hose was never subjected to strain nor had the hose been damaged in any way. When the hose separated from the connector, I was sprayed with liquid propane gas. I immediately tossed the hose and wand away from me and turned off the gas. This could have been fatal had I turned around with the hose and hot wand in my hand. The particulars are in the email below. I have attached photos of the unit.”
There was no leakage from the fitting before the failure. I had no warning that the fitting would separate. That separation was instantaneous.
Harbor Freight has been less than willing to respond that they are investigating and correcting a manufacturing issue. This failure is documented on Harbor Freight’s reviews of the product at least twice. [REDACTED]
Harbor Freight has been unresponsive in ensuring that they are correcting this manufacturing error. I’m trying to prevent a serious injury or death.
