CS2616 - Victor CS261-6 Propane Cutting Tip Size 6

Heavy-Duty Propane Cutting Performance

The Victor CutSkill CS2616 is a premium replacement cutting tip designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial metal cutting. Modeled directly after the Airco Style 261-6, this tip is engineered for seamless compatibility with Airco-style oxy-fuel torches. It is specifically calibrated for use with alternate fuel gases, such as Propane and Natural Gas, making it an economical choice for facilities looking to reduce fuel costs without sacrificing cut quality on thicker sections.

Optimized Two-Piece Design

Unlike standard acetylene tips, the CS2616 utilizes a two-piece construction consisting of a brass inner member and a copper outer shell. The inner member features splines that create the preheat flame slots, while the outer shell protects the assembly and directs the oxygen stream. This design is essential for alternate fuels, which have a lower flame propagation rate than acetylene. The recess created by the outer shell anchors the flame, ensuring stability even when the torch is moved rapidly or subjected to wind drafts. This configuration provides the heavy preheat required to bring thick steel to ignition temperature efficiently.

Capacity and Application

As a Size 6 tip, the CS2616 is a powerhouse intended for heavy-duty applications. It is capable of cutting steel plate ranging from approximately 6 inches to 8 inches in thickness. This makes it ideal for scrap yards, heavy structural fabrication, demolition projects, and maintenance operations where deep cutting capacity is required. The robust copper shell effectively dissipates the intense heat generated during such heavy cuts, prolonging the life of the tip and reducing the risk of overheating.

Victor CutSkill Quality

Part of the renowned Victor CutSkill line, this series combines professional-grade performance with value. Each tip is manufactured to precise tolerances to ensure a consistent flame pattern and a clean, high-velocity oxygen cutting stream. The seating surfaces are machined to ensure a tight, leak-proof seal with the torch head, promoting safety and efficiency in your cutting operations.
