Value Collection 173C-00 Cutting Torch Tip Acetylene

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 173C-00 is an acetylene cutting torch tip designed for oxyfuel cutting applications. Tip Number 00 indicates a small-orifice tip suited for cutting thinner steel plate, typically in the 1/8 to 1/4 inch thickness range. This tip threads onto compatible Victor-style cutting torch bodies and delivers a focused cutting oxygen stream flanked by preheat flames. It is used by welding and cutting professionals in fabrication shops, construction, and maintenance applications where precision oxyfuel cuts on light-gauge steel are required.

This cutting tip is intended for use with acetylene fuel gas in combination with oxygen. It is appropriate for light-duty cutting tasks on mild steel in the 1/8 to 1/4 inch thickness range. The Tip Number 00 designation makes it one of the smaller-orifice tips in a standard cutting tip series, well suited for detail cuts and thinner material where a larger tip would produce excessive kerf or distortion. Installation is on Victor-style torch bodies that accept this tip thread pattern.

Installation Notes

Cutting torch tips should be installed and serviced by qualified welding or cutting professionals familiar with oxyfuel equipment. Always close oxygen and fuel gas cylinder valves and bleed both hoses before removing or installing a tip. Inspect the tip seat and seating surface for damage or debris before threading the tip onto the torch body — hand-tighten only with the appropriate tip wrench, and do not overtighten. Follow the torch and tip manufacturer guidance along with applicable safety codes for oxyfuel cutting equipment when placing equipment into service.
