0380-0221 - Victor MT310NV 3-Hose Machine Cutting Torch for LP/Natural Gas

Precision Automated Cutting with Victor MT310NV

The Victor MT310NV (0380-0221) is a premium machine torch engineered for high-performance automated cutting applications using alternative fuels. Part of the renowned MT 300 series, this torch features a "straight through" design that significantly minimizes gas turbulence as it travels through the torch body. This laminar flow characteristic is critical for achieving high-quality, smooth cuts, particularly in mechanized setups where precision is paramount. The torch is specifically calibrated for use with Propane, Natural Gas, and Propylene, making it an efficient choice for facilities utilizing these cost-effective fuel gases.

This specific model is a three-hose configuration, which separates the preheat oxygen, cutting oxygen, and fuel gas supplies. This separation allows for finer tuning of the flame characteristics and ensures consistent performance during long cutting cycles. Notably, the MT310NV is designed without an integrated high-pressure cutting oxygen valve. This design choice is intentional for automated systems where the cutting oxygen flow is engaged and disengaged via a remote solenoid valve controlled by the CNC or track burner controller, rather than a manual lever on the torch itself.

Physically, the torch boasts a total length of 14 inches (355.6mm) with a 10-inch (254mm) barrel, providing ample clearance and reach for various mounting configurations. It features a 7-inch (177.8mm) racking length, allowing for flexible positioning within the torch holder. While it is capable of mounting securely, this SKU is supplied without a gear rack, making it suitable for smooth-bore mounts or custom clamping solutions. With a substantial cutting capacity of up to 12 inches (304.8mm) when equipped with the appropriate Series 1 cutting tips, the MT310NV is a workhorse for heavy fabrication and industrial plate processing.
