14Z69 - Oxweld 1512 Series Size 12 Propane Cutting Nozzle

Heavy-Duty Propane Cutting Performance

The ESAB Oxweld 14Z69 is a premium cutting tip designed for industrial professionals who require reliability and power when working with alternate fuel gases. Part of the renowned 1512 Series, this Size 12 nozzle is engineered specifically for use with Propane and Natural Gas. Unlike standard acetylene tips, this unit utilizes a two-piece construction consisting of a brass inner member with splines and a copper/chrome-plated outer sleeve. This design creates a highly stable, heavy preheat flame that is essential for maintaining the ignition temperature of thick steel when using fuels with lower flame propagation rates than acetylene.

With a cutting capacity ranging from 8 to 12 inches, the 14Z69 is a true workhorse intended for heavy fabrication, demolition, and scrap yards. The heavy preheat configuration ensures that even rust-covered or painted surfaces can be brought to kindling temperature rapidly, reducing downtime and gas consumption during the start of the cut. The precision manufacturing of the internal splines ensures a uniform flame cone, providing a clean cut surface that minimizes the need for secondary grinding or machining.

Durability is a key feature of the Oxweld line. The outer shell is resistant to heat deformation and spatter adhesion, extending the service life of the consumable in harsh environments. This tip is fully compatible with standard Oxweld hand cutting torches (such as the C-32 and C-66) as well as machine torches, making it a versatile addition to any industrial inventory. When precision and deep cutting capacity are required with cost-effective fuel gases, the 14Z69 delivers optimal results.
