OVERVIEW

Precision Air/Acetylene Soldering System

The Miller Smith 239-193 Handi-Heet (also known as the Silver Smith) Air/Acetylene Outfit is a premium soldering solution designed for professionals who demand precision, reliability, and ease of use. This complete outfit is engineered to provide a consistent, high-temperature soft flame using only acetylene gas and atmospheric air, eliminating the need for a separate oxygen cylinder. This makes it an exceptionally portable and economical choice for light-duty applications such as jewelry making, silver smithing, and precision HVAC soldering.

Superior Build Quality

At the heart of this system is the NE180A torch handle. Unlike cheaper plastic alternatives, this handle is machined from solid brass and finished with durable nickel plating. This construction ensures longevity and resistance to heat and impact. The full-length fluted design provides a secure, comfortable grip, allowing operators to maintain steady control during intricate work. The torch is not sensitive to temperature changes, ensuring consistent performance even during extended use.

Innovative Slip-In Tip Technology

One of the standout features of the Smith Handi-Heet system is the proprietary "Slip-in" tip design. The included NE180-00 super fine soldering tip seats perfectly by hand without the need for a wrench. An integrated O-ring provides a tight, leak-proof gas seal while allowing the operator to rotate the tip to any position. This 360-degree rotation capability is invaluable when working in tight spaces or approaching a workpiece from difficult angles. The tip features a synthetic sapphire orifice, which ensures an accurate, consistent flame pattern every time.

Complete Ready-to-Use Kit

The 239-193 outfit comes ready to work right out of the box. It includes a heavy-duty 30-15-520 single-stage regulator designed for "B" size acetylene tanks (CGA 520 connection). This regulator provides steady and sensitive gas regulation, crucial for maintaining the stable flame required for fine detail work. The kit also includes a 12.5-foot Grade R single-line hose with standard "B" fittings and a single flint striker for easy ignition. Whether you are a professional jeweler, a hobbyist silversmith, or a tradesperson needing a reliable soft-soldering tool, this Miller Smith outfit delivers the quality and performance associated with the legendary Smith Equipment brand.
