Bernzomatic 361524 Swirl Torch Propane Mapp 45 Degree

Product Description

The BERNZOMATIC 361524 is a swirl torch designed for use with propane and MAPP fuel sources. It features a 45-degree head angle that improves flame visibility and access in tight working positions. The propane tip delivers a swirling flame pattern that concentrates heat more efficiently than a standard straight-flame tip. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general trade professionals use this torch for soldering copper pipe, brazing, heat shrink work, and other controlled-heat applications. At 2 pounds, it is light enough for extended one-hand use without fatiguing the operator. The 45-degree head makes it practical for overhead and angled work without repositioning the fuel cylinder.

This torch is suited for residential and light commercial applications where propane or MAPP gas is the fuel of choice. The swirl tip design is common in plumbing rough-in and service work, copper soldering for HVAC refrigerant line sets, and general heating tasks on the job site. It ships as a single unit and is compatible with standard propane and MAPP cylinder valves found on 14.1-ounce and 16.4-ounce hand-held cylinders available at most trade supply outlets.

Installation Notes

This torch is typically used by licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians performing soldering or brazing operations. Always shut off the fuel cylinder valve completely when the torch is not in use and allow the head to cool before storing. Work in well-ventilated areas when using MAPP or propane in enclosed spaces, and follow applicable fire code requirements. Do not leave an open flame unattended or use near flammable materials.
