OVERVIEW

Industrial-Grade Oxy-Fuel Control

The ESAB C-58 Torch Handle (SKU: 24Z68) is a robust component designed for the rigorous demands of industrial metalworking. Engineered by ESAB, a leader in welding and cutting technologies, this handle serves as the foundational unit for a versatile oxy-fuel system. Constructed from high-quality brass and stainless steel materials, the C-58 is built to withstand high temperatures, mechanical impact, and the harsh conditions typical of fabrication shops, shipyards, and construction sites.

Technically, the C-58 features a tube-within-a-tube design or similar reinforced internal structure that ensures gas integrity and safety. The precision-machined valves located at the rear of the handle allow for minute adjustments of oxygen and fuel gas flow, enabling the operator to achieve a neutral, oxidizing, or carburizing flame with exactitude. This level of control is critical for high-quality welding, brazing, and heating applications where temperature management determines the metallurgical integrity of the joint.

The handle is designed to accept a variety of attachments, transforming it from a welding tool to a cutting instrument or a heating device. Its standard connection threads ensure compatibility with common industrial hoses and fittings, facilitating seamless integration into existing gas distribution setups. Whether utilized for structural steel repair or detailed pipe fabrication, the ESAB C-58 delivers consistent performance and reliability.

FAQ

The C-58 handle is generally compatible with all major fuel gases, including Acetylene, Propane, Natural Gas, and Propylene, provided the correct tips and hose grades (Grade T for alternate fuels) are used.

Typically, the handle is sold as a standalone unit. External flashback arrestors are highly recommended and should be installed at the torch inlet or regulator for safety.

ESAB owns Victor, and many handles share compatibility, but you must verify the specific seating style. The C-58 is an ESAB model; check the product manual for specific attachment part numbers.

ESAB typically offers a warranty on their industrial equipment covering manufacturing defects. Please consult the specific warranty documentation included with the product or on the ESAB website.

Yes, with the appropriate heating nozzle or rosebud attachment, the C-58 handle is excellent for preheating and heat-treating applications.

The handle is primarily constructed from brass for durability and heat resistance, often with stainless steel components for the ball valves or tubes.

Valves should be serviced by a qualified technician. However, keeping the torch clean and free of oil and grease is essential. Never use oil on oxygen equipment.

The C-58 typically features standard B-size (9/16"-18) oxygen and fuel connections.
