Value Collection 173C-0 Cutting Torch Tip Acetylene

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 173C-0 is an acetylene cutting torch tip designed for use with Victor torches. Tip Number 0, it is suited for cutting mild steel in the 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch thickness range. The tip threads into compatible Victor-style torch bodies and delivers a focused oxygen-acetylene cutting stream for clean, controlled cuts in fabrication and field service work. At 0.25 pounds, it is light enough for extended overhead or positional work. Licensed welders, pipefitters, and metal fabricators are the primary installers and users of this tip.

This cutting tip is used in workshops, fabrication shops, and field service environments where acetylene-fueled oxy-fuel cutting is the method of choice. It is appropriate for residential and commercial metalwork applications where material thickness falls in the 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch range. The tip is compatible with Victor torch bodies, making it a direct-fit replacement or spare for shops already running Victor equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified welder, pipefitter, or trained oxy-fuel operator. Before changing tips, shut off both oxygen and acetylene valves at the torch and at the cylinder. Hand-tighten the tip into the torch body, then snug with the appropriate tip wrench — do not overtighten. Inspect the tip seat and torch body threads for damage or debris before installing, and verify all connections are leak-free before igniting.
