The ESAB 0558005074 is a premium Size 1 cutting nozzle from the renowned Oxweld 1566HS series. Engineered specifically for machine cutting applications utilizing alternative fuels such as Natural Gas and Propane, this nozzle represents the pinnacle of high-speed oxy-fuel cutting technology. The "HS" designation stands for High Speed, indicating a divergent bore design that accelerates the cutting oxygen stream to supersonic velocities, allowing for travel speeds significantly faster than standard straight-bore tips.
This Size 1 tip is calibrated for cutting mild steel ranging from 3/4-inch to 1-1/2-inches in thickness. It features a robust two-piece construction consisting of a brass inner member with precision-milled splines for gas distribution and a heavy-duty copper outer shell. The outer shell is chrome-plated, a critical feature that reflects radiant heat and prevents the adhesion of molten spatter, thereby extending the service life of the nozzle in continuous industrial environments.
Industrial fabricators rely on the 1566HS series for its ability to maintain a stable preheat flame even during rapid acceleration, ensuring consistent cut quality with minimal kerf width and slag accumulation. Whether used in gantry cutting systems or track burners, this nozzle optimizes gas efficiency while maximizing throughput.
