Pro-source 6290-3 Acetylene Torch Tip No. 3 Copper

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE 6290-3 is a Number 3 oxygen/acetylene torch tip constructed from copper for reliable heat transfer and resistance to the high temperatures common in oxy-fuel work. This tip threads onto compatible oxy-acetylene torch handles and delivers a controlled flame suitable for welding, brazing, and cutting operations. Copper construction helps maintain tip integrity during extended use cycles. At 0.53 inches in diameter and 2.41 inches in length, this is a standard-profile tip suited to bench and field work alike. It is installed and used by welders, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and plumbers performing brazing or welding tasks on metal components and pipe assemblies.

The 6290-3 is designed for use with acetylene fuel gas in combination with oxygen in standard oxy-acetylene torch systems. Typical applications include silver brazing of refrigerant lines, welding of mild steel, and heating or bending tasks in mechanical and plumbing trades. The Number 3 tip size is a mid-range orifice suitable for moderate-thickness base metals commonly encountered in HVAC and plumbing service work. Sold individually as a single tip per package.

• Compatible with acetylene fuel gas in standard oxygen/acetylene torch systems
• Compact profile at 2.41 inches length and 0.53 inches diameter for access in tight work areas
• Lightweight at 0.134 pounds for ease of use during extended torch work

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement tip for standard oxygen/acetylene torch handles that accept this tip series. Verify torch handle thread type and tip series compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Torch tip installation and oxy-acetylene system operation should be performed by a qualified welder, pipefitter, or licensed trade professional familiar with compressed gas safety procedures. Always fully close both oxygen and acetylene cylinder valves and bleed the torch lines before removing or installing a tip. Inspect the tip seat and threads for damage or contamination prior to installation and snug the tip using the appropriate tip nut wrench — do not overtighten by hand or with pliers. Follow applicable safety standards and local codes governing the handling and use of compressed flammable gases in the work environment.
