A propane torch is a tool used in metalworking.
Usage
Metalworking
The propane torch is one of the two items required before any type of metalworking can be performed, with the other being the welding mask.
Construction
A propane torch can be used to construct many structures and furniture, such as metal crates and metal walls. Not only does this require a propane torch and welding mask, but each construction, will also require a certain amount of welding rods to be used. To construct metalworking objects, the player must have both the propane torch and welding mask in their inventory, then right-click and hover-over "Metalwork" in the contextual menu then select the desired structure to be constructed. Note that each metalworking object requires a known recipe that can be learnt by reading the appropriate recipe magazine.
Barricading
Similarly to carpentry, the player can barricade doors and windows with metal sheets or metal bars. Unlike constructing, barricading does not require any welding rods or learned recipes.
Disassembling
There are various metal objects throughout the world that can be disassembled, rewarding the player with some metalworking skill and metal parts. This requires the player to have a propane torch and welding mask. Although disassembling all objects with the exception of wrecked cars used to not cost any propane, that was fixed and now it does in all instances.
Mechanics
Some vehicle parts can be repaired using a propane torch and small metal sheets, so long as the player has a sufficient metalworking and mechanics skill. Parts that are currently repairable with a propane torch and small metal sheets are: doors, gas tanks and trunks.
Car wrecks (burnt cars) can be dismantled, gathering metal materials depending on the player's metalworking skill.
Refilling
The propane torch uses some stored propane gas each time it's used, with a maximum of 10 units. A propane torch can be refilled if the player has a propane tank, then by right-clicking either the propane torch or propane tank, then selecting "Refill Blow Torch". Refilling a torch consumes 1/16 of a propane tank - even if the torch was not completely empty.

Buildings
Propane torches can be found in logging factories, sheds, garages, tool stores, storage units, and crates.
Vehicles
They can be found in the trunk of a metal welder, or construction worker's vehicle.
Trivia
The in-game torch is more versatile than its real world equivalent. In real life, a propane torch will heat aluminum but not melt it, and melt steel but not weld it. The game’s torch combines features of a SMAW arc welder, which uses welding rods, and an oxy-acetylene cutting torch that cuts metal.
