OVERVIEW

ESAB 1566HS-1 Nozzle for Natural Gas & Propane

Maximize your automated cutting production with the ESAB 1566HS-1 Cutting Nozzle (0558005074). Designed for the professional fabricator using Oxweld-style machine torches, this high-performance tip is optimized for alternative fuels like Propane and Natural Gas. The 1566HS series is legendary in the industry for its "High Speed" divergent bore technology, which creates a highly concentrated oxygen stream capable of cutting steel faster and cleaner than conventional tips.

The Size 1 configuration is perfect for medium-plate processing, handling material thicknesses between 3/4" and 1-1/2" (approx. 19mm to 38mm). The nozzle utilizes a two-piece design that separates the preheat gas mixing from the cutting oxygen, ensuring safety and flashback resistance. The heavy preheat splines provide a robust flame that anchors well, even when cutting primed or scaly plate, reducing the risk of lost cuts during high-speed machine travel.

Durability is built-in with a chrome-plated outer shell that resists corrosion and spatter buildup. This means less downtime for cleaning and fewer tip replacements over time. If you are running an Oxweld C-67 or similar machine torch and want to get the most out of your fuel gas, the 1566HS-1 is the industry standard for speed and reliability.

  • Increased Speed: Divergent bore allows for higher travel speeds.
  • Fuel Efficiency: Optimized for low-cost alternative fuels.

FAQ

The 1566HS-1 is designed for use with alternative fuels, specifically Natural Gas and Propane. It is not suitable for Acetylene.

The Size 1 nozzle is rated for cutting mild steel between 3/4 inch (19mm) and 1-1/2 inches (38mm) thick.

While it physically fits Oxweld torches, the 1566HS series is specifically designed for high-speed machine cutting applications where travel speed is mechanically controlled.

HS stands for 'High Speed'. These tips feature a divergent bore that expands the cutting oxygen stream, allowing for faster cutting speeds compared to standard tips.

This is a two-piece tip, consisting of a brass inner member and a copper outer shell, which is standard for alternative fuel nozzles.

The two-piece design can be taken apart for cleaning. The splines on the inner member should be cleaned with a soft brush or chemical cleaner; do not use standard wire tip cleaners on the splines as it may damage the gas passages.

It is compatible with Oxweld-style machine cutting torches, such as the C-67 series.
