0558005016 - Oxweld 1567 Series Propane/NG Gouging Nozzle 1/4"

Efficient Weld Removal with Oxweld Precision

The ESAB Oxweld 1567-1/4 Gouging Nozzle is a specialized consumable designed to bring efficiency and cost-effectiveness to your metalworking operations. When your project requires the removal of old welds, the preparation of plate edges for welding, or the excavation of cracks, this gouging nozzle is the tool of choice for operators utilizing alternate fuels. Unlike standard cutting tips, the 1567 series is engineered specifically to wash away metal in a controlled manner, creating a clean, U-shaped groove that requires minimal post-process grinding.

One of the primary advantages of this nozzle is its optimization for Propane and Natural Gas. In the industrial sector, shifting from Acetylene to these alternate fuels can result in significant cost savings. However, alternate fuels burn at a different velocity and require specific tip geometry to maintain a stable flame. The 1567-1/4 features a robust two-piece construction consisting of a heavy-duty outer shell and an internal spline. This design creates a skirted flame that anchors the preheat cone, preventing the flame from blowing off the tip even under the high-pressure oxygen flow required for deep gouging.

Durability is paramount in gouging applications where the tip is often subjected to intense reflected heat and molten slag. ESAB has manufactured this nozzle using high-quality copper alloys that resist deformation and wear. The 1/4-inch size offers a versatile balance, capable of removing significant material in a single pass while maintaining enough control for finer detail work. whether you are repairing heavy machinery, preparing structural steel, or correcting weld defects, the Oxweld 1567-1/4 ensures you get the job done cleanly and economically.

Investing in genuine Oxweld consumables means investing in consistency. The precision manufacturing of the gas ports ensures a uniform flame pattern, which is critical for achieving smooth, symmetrical grooves. Poor quality tips can lead to ragged edges and uneven metal removal, increasing the time spent on secondary cleanup. With the ESAB 0558005016, you can trust in a reliable performance that keeps your fabrication line moving.
