Victor 0381-1500 Vanguard St 2632FC Straight Cutting Torch

Product Description

The VICTOR 0381-1500 VanGuard ST 2632FC is a heavy-duty straight cutting torch built for demanding industrial cutting applications. Measuring 36 inches in length with a 180-degree head angle, it delivers a cutting capacity of 1/8 inch to 8 inches of steel. The torch is compatible with all fuel gases, giving technicians flexibility on the job. A top rear lever position controls the cutting oxygen flow, and Series 1 tips are used with this handle. Built-in patented flashback arrestors and reverse flow check valves are integrated directly into the torch body, providing a critical layer of protection against hazardous backflow events.

This cutting torch is designed for heavy-duty industrial environments where high-capacity cutting is performed routinely. Typical applications include scrap cutting operations and foundry work where thick steel sections must be cut efficiently. The 36-inch body length keeps the operator at a safe working distance from the cut zone. Its all-fuel-gas compatibility makes it suitable for facilities running acetylene, propane, natural gas, or other fuel gas supplies without requiring a torch change.
