OVERVIEW

Professional Maintenance for Oxy-Fuel Equipment

The Victor RT-105 Repair Tool (SKU: 1420-0163) is a critical maintenance accessory designed for professional fabricators and equipment repair technicians. In the realm of oxy-fuel cutting, the integrity of the seal between the cutting tip and the torch head is paramount for both safety and performance. Over time, the seating surfaces within the torch head can accumulate carbon deposits, slag, or suffer from minor deformations due to heat cycling and overtightening. These imperfections compromise the metal-to-metal seal, leading to potential gas leaks, backfires, or flashbacks.

The RT-105 is precision-engineered to recondition these seating surfaces. Functioning as a specialized reamer, it gently removes debris and refaces the seat to factory tolerances without removing excessive material. This tool is specifically calibrated for Victor-style cutting attachments and torch handles, ensuring that the geometry of the seat matches the taper of standard Victor cutting tips. Regular use of the RT-105 during scheduled maintenance intervals ensures that your equipment operates at peak efficiency, maintaining a stable flame and reducing the risk of hazardous malfunctions.

Constructed from high-grade hardened steel, the RT-105 is built to withstand the rigors of an industrial workshop environment. Its design allows for manual operation, giving the technician tactile feedback to ensure the seat is cleaned without damaging the torch body. By investing in proper maintenance tools like the RT-105, facilities can significantly extend the operational lifespan of their oxy-fuel apparatus, reducing the frequency of costly replacements and ensuring compliance with safety standards regarding gas equipment integrity.

FAQ

The RT-105 is used to ream and clean the seating surfaces inside a Victor torch head or cutting attachment to ensure a proper seal with the cutting tip.

It is designed specifically for Victor-style torches. While some other brands copy the Victor seat design, it is best used on genuine Victor equipment to avoid damage.

If you experience gas leaks around the tip nut, popping sounds during preheat, or if the tip will not seat securely, the torch head likely needs reaming.

No, the RT-105 is designed for hand use only. Using power tools can remove too much material and permanently ruin the torch head.

No, this tool is for the torch head (the female part), not the copper cutting tip (the male part).

It is manufactured from hardened steel to effectively cut and clean the softer brass material of the torch head.

No, it is a durable tool meant for repeated use. However, like any cutting tool, it may eventually dull after years of service.

No. Tip cleaners clean the holes in the cutting tip. The RT-105 cleans the seating surface where the tip connects to the torch.
