Start with 10 and 25. If it isn't heating up quick enough for you bump it up a bit. 25 on the Oxy should be plenty for the thickness we use. The least amount of pressure needed to get the job done is the most efficient obviously.

6 AND 26....... VERY SIMPLE TO REMEMBER....AND ONLY CRACK THE VALVES TO OPEN THE CYLINDER, THAT WAY IF THERES A PROBLEM YOU WONT BREAK YOUR WRIST TRYING TO TURN THE VALVE 9 TIMES BEFORE THE GAS IS OFF.....

If you read the smith user manual it says 5 to 15 for acc. and 8 to 18 for propane. Oxygen they have between 40 and 60
I run my torches at 7 and 40 At work they are 10 and 40.
