OVERVIEW

Heavy-Duty Oxy-Acetylene Heating Solution

The Uniweld TYPE7928-43-6 Heating Head is a premium industrial component designed for professionals requiring substantial heat output for metalworking applications. Part of the Type 7928 series, this multi-flame tip—commonly referred to as a "rosebud"—is engineered to burn Oxygen and Acetylene gases efficiently to produce a high-temperature, wide-coverage flame. This specific model is a Size #6, offering a significant BTU output suitable for working with thicker steel sections and heavy plate.

Constructed from high-quality copper, the tip is designed to withstand the intense thermal cycles associated with heavy heating operations. The copper material aids in heat dissipation, preventing the tip itself from overheating during prolonged use, provided that proper gas flow rates are maintained. This unit is specifically designed to interface with the Uniweld 43 Series torch handles, a standard in heavy-duty industrial welding and cutting, and requires the use of a UM43 mixer to ensure the safe and correct blend of oxygen and fuel gas before it reaches the tip orifices.

Technical Performance and Compatibility

The TYPE7928-43-6 is strictly for use with Acetylene. Users must ensure their acetylene cylinder capacity is sufficient to support the withdrawal rate required by a Size #6 tip (following the 1/7th or 1/10th rule) to prevent solvent withdrawal from the cylinder. The multi-flame configuration distributes heat evenly over a larger surface area compared to a single-point welding tip, making it the tool of choice for applications where soaking heat is required rather than localized melting.

Key Operational Benefits

  • Rapid Heat Transfer: The multi-port design generates a large volume of heat, reducing the time required to bring metal to the critical temperature.
  • Robust Construction: Built to resist deformation and wear in harsh shop environments.
  • Precision Fit: Machined threads ensure a gas-tight seal when coupled with the UM43 mixer.

FAQ

This heating head is designed to fit Uniweld 43 Series torch handles. It requires the use of a UM43 mixer to connect to the handle.

No, the mixer is typically sold separately. The product name 'With Mixer' often refers to the assembly capability, but you generally need to ensure you have the UM43 mixer. Please check the specific package contents, but standard replacement tips do not include the mixer block.

No. The TYPE7928 series is designed specifically for Oxy/Acetylene. Using propane with an acetylene tip can cause performance issues or overheating due to the different combustion characteristics. For propane, you should look for the TYPE7929 series or equivalent propane tips.

This is a Size #6 heating tip, which indicates its flow rate and heat output capacity relative to other tips in the series.

Rosebud tips are used for applying large amounts of heat to a broad area. Common applications include preheating metal before welding, bending steel bars or pipes, and flame straightening.

Multi-flame heating tips require high gas flow to keep the tip cool. If the pressure is too low, the flame can burn back into the tip (flashback) or the tip can overheat and melt. Always consult the manufacturer's pressure chart for a Size #6 tip.

Uniweld 43 Series equipment is generally compatible with Victor-style heavy-duty handles (like the Victor 300 series), provided the correct mixer (UM43) is used.
