Victor 0381-1483 Heavy Duty Straight Cutting Torch

Product Description

The VICTOR 0381-1483 is a heavy-duty straight cutting torch in the VanGuarda ST 2600FC series, designed for professional cutting operations across a wide range of fuel gases. The torch features a 21-inch body with a 75-degree head angle and delivers a cutting capacity of 1/8 inch to 8 inches. Built-in patented flashback arrestors and reverse flow check valves are integrated directly into the torch body, adding a critical layer of protection for the operator. The top rear lever position controls cutting oxygen flow and accepts Series 1 tips. Tubes and the cutting oxygen lever are constructed from stainless steel, while the die-forged head and ribbed handle are machined from brass.

The VICTOR 0381-1483 is suited for demanding industrial and trade applications including scrap cutting and foundry work. Its universal mixer design makes it compatible with all common fuel gases, giving shops and field crews flexibility across acetylene, propane, natural gas, and similar fuel supplies. The straight torch configuration is a standard layout for hand-held cutting work where the operator needs direct sightlines to the cut. Licensed welding and cutting professionals typically deploy this torch in heavy fabrication, metal recycling, and foundry environments.
