Victor 0381-1745 Bulldoga HC1131C Cutting Torch 72 in

Product Description

The VICTOR 0381-1745 is the Bulldoga HC1131C H1 cutting torch, a high-capacity straight torch built for heavy cutting applications in industrial and structural steel environments. The torch measures 72 inches in overall length and weighs 8.2 pounds. It features a low-profile head and a lightweight-but-durable construction designed to reduce operator fatigue during extended cutting sessions. Reverse flow check valves are installed at the inlet connection in place of built-in flashback arrestors. The seat is designed to accept Harris-style tips. This torch is intended for use by professional welders and cutting technicians in fabrication and heavy industrial settings.

The 0381-1745 Bulldoga is suited for industrial and general fabrication as well as structural steel fabrication. Its 72-inch overall length makes it practical for applications where additional reach is required, such as large structural cuts, plate work, or elevated work surfaces. The torch conforms to ISO standards EN ISO 5172, making it appropriate for job sites and facilities with international compliance requirements. It is sold as an individual unit.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation of cutting torches should be performed by qualified welding and cutting professionals familiar with oxy-fuel equipment. Always shut off both oxygen and fuel gas supplies at the cylinder valves and fully depressurize hoses before connecting or disconnecting torch components. Inspect all fittings, hoses, and reverse flow check valves for leaks using an approved leak-detection solution before igniting. Follow applicable OSHA, CGA, and local fire code requirements for storage and use of compressed gas equipment.
