OVERVIEW

ESAB Propane/Natural Gas Heating Nozzle - Size 3

The ESAB 0004450584 is a specialized heating nozzle designed for use with alternative fuel gases such as Propane and Natural Gas (NG). Engineered for industrial environments, this nozzle provides a high-volume heat output suitable for a wide range of thermal applications, including preheating prior to welding, post-weld heat treatment, thermal straightening, and metal bending. The "3-200MM" designation indicates a Size 3 capacity, optimized for substantial heat transfer over a broad surface area.

Unlike acetylene nozzles, this propane/NG specific tip is constructed to handle the slower burn velocity and different flow characteristics of alternative fuels. It features a multi-flame design that ensures a stable, wind-resistant flame front. The construction utilizes high-grade copper and brass alloys to withstand the intense reflected heat generated during prolonged heating cycles. The internal geometry is precision-drilled to maximize gas mixing efficiency, ensuring complete combustion and reducing fuel waste.

This nozzle is an essential component for fabrication shops and maintenance crews looking to leverage the economy and availability of propane or natural gas for heating tasks. It fits compatible ESAB torch handles and heating attachments, offering a secure, leak-free connection. Whether used for bringing heavy plate up to temperature or correcting structural distortion, this nozzle delivers consistent performance.

FAQ

No, this nozzle is designed specifically for Propane or Natural Gas. Using it with Acetylene can cause dangerous flashbacks or overheating due to different burn velocities.

The '3' refers to the nozzle size category (Size 3), and '200MM' typically relates to the ESAB sizing standard for heating capacity or length, indicating it is a medium-to-heavy duty heating tip.

This nozzle is designed to fit standard ESAB heating attachments and torch handles that accept this style of heating tip. Please check your torch manual for specific shank compatibility.

Yes, you should use regulators rated for Propane (often marked for LP Gas) to ensure proper flow rates and safety, although the oxygen regulator remains the same.

Use a standard tip cleaner set. Select the wire size that fits the orifices snugly without forcing it, and move it in and out to remove carbon buildup. Do not use a drill bit.

No, this is a heating nozzle (often called a rosebud) designed solely for heating metal, not cutting it.

Propane is generally much cheaper than Acetylene and provides a higher total BTU output for 'soaking' heat into large, thick materials, even though the flame temperature is slightly lower.
