Rated as a Tip Number 1, it is suited for cutting mild steel in the 1\/2 to 3\/4 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 base metal efficiently. Weighing 0.25 pounds, it is a lightweight consumable that professional pipefitters, welders, and metal fabricators replace as part of routine torch maintenance. Proper tip selection by thickness and gas type directly affects cut quality and oxygen consumption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tip is intended for use with acetylene fuel gas in oxyfuel cutting setups. It is well suited to structural steel work, pipe fabrication, demolition cutting, and general metal cutting tasks in both shop and field environments. The Tip Number 1 designation targets the 1\/2 to 3\/4 inch cutting range, making it a common choice for mid-range steel plate and pipe work where a controlled, clean kerf is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTip Number 1 rated for cutting mild steel from 1\/2 to 3\/4 inch thick\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with acetylene fuel gas for standard oxyfuel cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned for use with Victor-style torch bodies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.25 pounds for easy handling during extended work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReplacement consumable for maintaining clean, accurate cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with Victor torches using acetylene fuel gas.

Before removing or installing a tip, close all cylinder valves and bleed both oxygen and fuel lines to zero pressure. Use the correct tip wrench to seat the tip snugly — do not overtighten, as this can damage the seating surface and cause leaks. Inspect the tip orifice and preheat ports for backfire damage or blockage before each use, and use a tip cleaner to clear any obstruction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Gas\u003c\/strong\u003e: Acetylene\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 to 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 173C-1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51697215275314,"sku":"173C-1","price":31.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d7e601e257d391ed3c82179da222fc4c.jpg?v=1788350642","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-173c-1-cutting-torch-tip-acetylene","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
