Value Collection 172C-2 Cutting Torch Tip Acetylene

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 172C-2 is an acetylene cutting torch tip designed for oxyfuel cutting applications. Identified as Tip Number 2, it is suited for cutting material in the 3/4 to 1-1/2 inch thickness range. The tip threads into compatible Victor-style torch bodies and delivers a focused cutting oxygen stream flanked by preheat flames to sever ferrous metals cleanly. Welding and cutting professionals, pipefitters, and ironworkers rely on this type of consumable tip for both shop and field cutting work. The lightweight construction at 0.25 pounds makes it easy to handle during extended torch operations.

This cutting tip is intended for use with oxyfuel cutting setups that run acetylene as the fuel gas. Typical applications include structural steel cutting, plate work, pipe cutting, and general metal fabrication. It is well suited for trade environments such as fabrication shops, construction sites, and industrial maintenance operations where acetylene-oxygen cutting rigs are standard equipment.

Installation Notes

Cutting torch tips are installed and serviced by qualified welders, pipefitters, and cutting operators familiar with oxyfuel equipment. Before changing a tip, shut off both the oxygen and fuel gas supply valves at the regulator and bleed all pressure from the torch body and hoses. Hand-tighten the tip into the torch head, then snug with the appropriate tip wrench — do not overtighten, as this can damage the seating surface. Verify all connections for leaks using an approved leak-detection solution before relighting.
