Optimize your oxy-acetylene cutting operations with this high-quality generic replacement for the Harris 6290-0 cutting tip. Designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial metalworking, this tip provides a cost-effective solution without compromising on performance or safety. It is engineered to fit perfectly into all standard Harris-style cutting torches and attachments, including the popular Model 62, 73, 49, and 142 series. Whether you are working in a fabrication shop, on a construction site, or performing maintenance repairs, this tip delivers the consistency required for professional results.
The 6290-0 is a Size 0 tip, specifically calibrated for cutting mild steel with a thickness of approximately 5/8 of an inch (16mm). It features a medium preheat flame pattern, which is ideal for general-purpose hand cutting. The medium preheat ensures that the steel reaches its ignition temperature quickly, allowing for a smooth start to the cut, even on slightly dirty or rusty plates. However, it is optimized for clean to moderately prepared surfaces, providing a clean kerf with minimal slag accumulation when settings are adjusted correctly.
Constructed from a single piece of high-grade copper, this tip offers excellent thermal conductivity and durability. The one-piece design is standard for acetylene tips, as it allows the tip to withstand the intense heat of the oxy-acetylene flame while maintaining structural integrity. The internal gas passages are precision-drilled and swaged to ensure a stable, laminar flow of oxygen and fuel gas, reducing the risk of turbulence that can lead to a ragged cut surface. The seating area is machined to tight tolerances, ensuring a metal-to-metal seal with the torch head that prevents dangerous gas leaks and potential flashbacks.
This tip is strictly for use with Acetylene gas. Attempting to use it with alternative fuels like Propane, Propylene, or Natural Gas will result in poor performance and potential safety hazards due to the different burning velocities and recessed tip requirements of those gases. By choosing this generic 6290-0 tip, you are investing in a reliable consumable that extends the versatility of your Harris-style equipment, providing clean, efficient cuts shift after shift.
