6290VVC-0 - Harris Style 6290VVC Size 0 High Speed Machine Cutting Tip

High-Performance Machine Cutting for Industrial Fabrication

The 6290VVC-0 Cutting Tip is a premium-quality, generic replacement designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial machine cutting. Engineered specifically for use with alternative fuels such as Propane and Natural Gas, this tip is part of the widely respected 6290-VVC series, known for delivering high-speed performance in automated environments. The "VVC" designation indicates a high-velocity design intended to maximize cutting speeds while maintaining edge quality, making it an essential component for fabrication shops utilizing track burners, CNC tables, or straight-line cutting machines.

This Size 0 tip is calibrated for cutting mild steel ranging from 1/4 inch to 3/8 inch in thickness. Unlike standard hand-cutting tips, the 6290VVC features a specialized two-piece construction. The inner member is precision-machined brass with splines that define the preheat gas flow, while the outer shell is chrome-plated. This chrome plating is not merely cosmetic; it serves a critical functional purpose by reflecting intense radiant heat away from the tip during continuous machine operation. This feature significantly reduces the likelihood of overheating and minimizes the adherence of molten slag (spatter), ensuring a longer service life and reduced downtime for cleaning.

Industrial operators will appreciate the efficiency of the 6290VVC-0. By utilizing a divergent bore design, the cutting oxygen expands within the tip to reach supersonic velocities, allowing for faster travel speeds compared to standard tips. This translates to higher throughput and lower gas consumption per foot of cut. Whether you are processing structural plate or manufacturing heavy equipment components, this Harris-style compatible tip offers a cost-effective solution without compromising on the precision and durability required for professional manufacturing.
