OVERVIEW

Industrial Grade Acetylene Heating Performance

The ESAB Oxweld 4216-8 Heating Nozzle (SKU: 998593) is a premium multi-flame heating head engineered for heavy-duty industrial applications. Part of the renowned Oxweld 4216 series, this nozzle is specifically calibrated for use with Acetylene gas, providing the high-intensity heat transfer required for manipulating thick steel sections. The "Size 8" designation indicates a substantial flow capacity, making it suitable for tasks that demand rapid temperature elevation over a concentrated area.

Constructed from high-grade copper, the 4216-8 is designed to withstand the rigors of daily industrial use. The copper material offers excellent thermal conductivity, which helps dissipate heat away from the tip face, prolonging the lifespan of the consumable and reducing the risk of overheating during prolonged heating cycles. The nozzle features a long neck design which aids in keeping the operator's hand at a safe distance from the radiant heat of the workpiece while also providing better reach into complex assemblies.

This nozzle is designed to interface seamlessly with Oxweld W-17 and W-26 torch handles, which are industry standards for heavy-duty welding and heating. The internal geometry of the 4216-8 promotes efficient gas mixing and stable flame propagation, minimizing the risk of flashback when used within recommended pressure settings. It is an essential component for fabrication shops, shipyards, and structural steel environments where precise thermal control is necessary for preheating prior to welding, post-weld heat treatment, or mechanical forming processes.

FAQ

The Oxweld 4216-8 is designed specifically for use with Acetylene gas.

This nozzle is compatible with Oxweld W-17 and W-26 heavy-duty torch handles.

The size number (8) refers to the flame port size and flow capacity; a higher number indicates a larger flame and greater heat output.

No, the 4216 series is designed for Acetylene. For alternate fuels like Propane or Natural Gas, you would typically require a different series nozzle (often the 4218 series) designed for those fuel characteristics.

'Rosebud' is a common slang term for a multi-flame heating tip like this one, named for the pattern of flame ports on the face.

Use a standard tip cleaner set. Select the wire size that fits the small flame ports snugly but without forcing, and gently file away carbon deposits.

No, this is a heating nozzle only. It does not have a central oxygen jet for cutting steel.

Yes, large heating tips like the Size 8 consume a significant volume of gas. Ensure your regulators and cylinder capacity (especially Acetylene withdrawal rates) are sufficient to support the flow.
