摘要

A flashback arrestor (130) for use in gas cutting or welding equipment includes a body (150) which defines a proximal end portion and a distal end portion and which has a plurality of pores. Each of the pores defines a pore size. The pore size is a function of a detonation cell size such that the pore size is increased to reduce a size of the body (150).
