OVERVIEW

Genuine Victor 2-GPN-CS Cutting Tip for Propane & Natural Gas

The Victor 0387-0174 2-GPN-CS Cutting Tip is a high-performance consumable designed for industrial cutting applications using alternative fuel gases. Engineered by Victor, a leader in gas equipment, this "Series 1" tip is compatible with standard heavy-duty cutting attachments and straight torches. The GPN (General Purpose Natural) designation indicates its optimization for Propane and Natural Gas, which burn at different rates and temperatures compared to acetylene. This specific Size 2 tip is rated to cut mild steel ranging from 1 inch to 1-1/2 inches (25mm - 38mm) in thickness, making it a versatile choice for fabrication shops, scrap yards, and structural steel work.

Unlike single-piece acetylene tips, the Victor 2-GPN features a robust two-piece construction. It consists of a brass inner member with splines for gas flow and a heavy-duty copper outer shell. This design is critical for propane cutting because propane requires a recessed flame focus to maintain stability and prevent the flame from blowing out. The copper outer shell also provides excellent resistance to reflected heat, which is common when cutting thicker sections or working in confined spaces. The splined inner insert ensures a uniform preheat flame pattern, allowing for quick starts and smooth, high-quality cuts with minimal slag accumulation.

Packaged in a convenient clamshell for protection and easy storage, this tip is a direct replacement for worn consumables on your Victor CA2460, CA1060, or similar Series 1 compatible equipment. Using genuine Victor tips ensures that your torch maintains the correct gas mixing ratios and safety standards. Whether you are converting from acetylene to save on fuel costs or simply need a reliable replacement for your existing propane setup, the 2-GPN-CS delivers consistent performance and durability in demanding environments.
