Forney Industries Inc 60450 Acetylene Cutting Tip

Product Description

The FORNEY INDUSTRIES INC 60450 is an acetylene cutting tip designed for use with standard oxy-acetylene cutting torches. Also referenced as the 3-3-101, this tip delivers a focused cutting flame for ferrous metal cutting tasks common in fabrication, maintenance, and field service work. The size 3-3 designation indicates tip bore sizing suited for cutting mild steel plate in a mid-range thickness capacity. Licensed cutting torch operators, welding technicians, and fabricators are the typical end users. This package includes 6 tips, making it practical for shop stocking and reducing downtime from tip wear or damage.

Oxy-acetylene cutting remains a standard process in structural steel fabrication, HVAC equipment manufacturing, scrap processing, and general metalworking shops. This tip is appropriate for both bench and field applications where acetylene is the fuel gas of choice. The 6-unit pack supports production environments and service fleets that cycle through consumable cutting tips regularly. Proper tip selection by bore size and metal thickness is essential to achieving clean cuts and minimizing slag buildup.

Installation Notes

Cutting tips are installed and serviced by trained welding technicians or certified torch operators following applicable safety codes. Always shut off both oxygen and acetylene supply valves and fully purge the torch before changing a tip. Use the correct tip wrench to seat the tip firmly without overtightening, which can damage the seating surface. Inspect the tip orifice for obstructions or damage before each use and clean with an approved tip cleaner tool only.
