0558005086 - ESAB Oxweld 1566HS Size 1-1/2 Multi-Flame Heating Nozzle for MAPP/FG-2

Heavy-Duty Industrial Heating Performance

The ESAB Oxweld 1566HS-1-1/2 Heating Nozzle (SKU: 0558005086) is a premier solution for industrial heating applications requiring the use of MAPP or FG-2 fuel gases. Part of the renowned Oxweld 1566HS series, this multi-flame nozzle is engineered to deliver high-volume heat output, making it an essential tool for heavy fabrication shops, shipyards, and structural steel environments. The "HS" designation stands for High Speed, indicating its capability to bring large metal sections to critical temperatures rapidly, thereby increasing operational throughput and reducing downtime associated with preheating processes.

Constructed from high-quality copper and finished with a durable chrome plating, the nozzle is designed to withstand the rigors of harsh industrial environments. The chrome finish not only provides resistance to corrosion but also helps prevent the adhesion of spatter, ensuring the nozzle remains clean and functional over extended periods of use. The 1-1/2 size classification denotes a significant flow capacity, suitable for heating thick plates, large diameter pipes, and heavy castings. By optimizing the combustion of MAPP and FG-2 gases, this nozzle offers a cost-effective alternative to acetylene-based heating without compromising on thermal transfer efficiency.

Safety and compatibility are paramount in the design of the 1566HS series. The nozzle features internal geometry that promotes stable gas mixing and flow, significantly reducing the risk of flashback or backfire, which are common concerns in high-output heating. It is designed to mate perfectly with heavy-duty Oxweld torch handles, ensuring a secure, leak-free connection that professionals can rely on. Whether used for flame straightening, bending, or preheating prior to welding, the ESAB 1566HS-1-1/2 stands as a benchmark for reliability and performance in the field of oxy-fuel heating equipment.
