5402-3003 - Victor N-2 Acetylene Cutting Tip Size 2

Precision Oxy-Acetylene Cutting with Victor

The Victor 5402-3003 N-2 Acetylene Tip is a high-performance consumable designed for industrial oxy-fuel cutting applications. Manufactured by Victor, a global leader in gas control equipment, this tip is engineered to deliver superior flame stability and cutting efficiency. The "N-2" designation indicates a specific tip geometry and size (Size 2), typically suitable for cutting mild steel ranging from approximately 1 to 2 inches in thickness, depending on the specific torch setup and gas pressure settings.

Constructed from high-grade copper and brass alloys, the 5402-3003 ensures excellent heat dissipation, which is critical for preventing tip overheating during prolonged cutting operations. The internal gas passages are precision-machined to ensure a smooth, laminar flow of preheat gases and cutting oxygen. This attention to detail results in a consistent preheat flame and a sharp, high-velocity oxygen stream that clears molten metal effectively from the kerf.

For industrial MRO environments, using genuine Victor tips like the 5402-3003 reduces downtime associated with tip cleaning and replacement. The seating surfaces are designed to form a tight, leak-proof seal with compatible torch heads, minimizing the risk of gas leaks and potential safety hazards. Whether utilized in structural steel fabrication, scrap yards, or general maintenance, this acetylene tip provides the reliability professionals demand.

Technical Specifications & Performance

This tip is specifically calibrated for Acetylene gas, which provides the highest flame temperature of all fuel gases. Operators should ensure their regulators are set to the appropriate pressures for a Size 2 tip to maximize performance and safety. The one-piece design (common for acetylene tips) simplifies maintenance and ensures robust durability under thermal cycling.
