Uniweld 68-6 V-style Machine Cutting Torch 6 Inch

Product Description

The UNIWELD 68-6 is a V-style machine cutting torch designed for precision oxy-fuel cutting operations. With an 8-inch cutting capacity and a 6-inch barrel length, it is built for use in mechanized or automated cutting setups where consistent torch positioning and reliable gas control are required. The torch features precision reamed seats for leak-free gas flow and a heavy-duty barrel construction. A quick-opening oxygen cutting lever allows the operator to initiate the cut cleanly and efficiently. Licensed welding and cutting professionals install and operate this torch in fabrication shops, pipe yards, and structural steel environments.

The UNIWELD 68-6 is suited for machine-mounted cutting applications where the torch is held in a carriage or mechanized guide rather than hand-held. It is used in industrial and trade settings for straight-line and shape cutting of steel plate and structural profiles. The 8-inch cutting capacity makes it appropriate for moderate-thickness steel work. Stainless steel ball-point preheat valves allow fine adjustment of the fuel and oxygen preheat flame before the cut is initiated.

Key Features

• V-style machine torch design for use in mechanized cutting carriages and fixtures
• 8-inch cutting capacity for moderate-thickness steel applications
• 6-inch barrel length for standard machine torch mounting clearance
• Precision reamed seats for consistent, leak-resistant gas seating
• Stainless steel ball-point preheat valves for durable, fine-tune flame adjustment
• Quick-opening oxygen cutting lever for smooth, controlled cut initiation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style machine cutting torch for use with standard oxy-fuel cutting systems requiring a V-style torch head configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by a qualified welding or cutting professional familiar with oxy-fuel systems and applicable safety codes. Always shut off and purge both oxygen and fuel gas supplies before mounting, dismounting, or servicing the torch. Inspect all hose connections and torch seats for leaks using an approved leak-detection solution before igniting. Follow applicable ANSI and AWS safety standards for oxy-fuel cutting equipment setup and use.
