SC12-4X9 - Smith SC12-4X9 Extra Long Acetylene Cutting Tip, Size 4, 9-Inch

Smith SC12-4X9 Heavy Duty Acetylene Cutting Tip - 9 Inch Extended Reach

The Smith SC12-4X9 is a specialized heavy-duty cutting tip designed for industrial environments where standard reach is insufficient. Part of the renowned SC12 series, this tip is engineered to deliver high-performance cutting capabilities using Acetylene gas. The defining feature of the SC12-4X9 is its extended 9-inch (229 mm) length, which provides operators with the ability to cut in deep recesses, behind obstructions, or in hard-to-access areas that standard length tips cannot reach. This makes it an invaluable tool for complex demolition, infrastructure repair, and heavy equipment maintenance.

Constructed as a single-piece copper alloy unit, the SC12-4X9 is built to withstand the intense heat and physical demands of heavy industrial use. It features a Size #4 orifice, capable of cutting steel ranging up to 4 inches (102 mm) in thickness. The tip utilizes a six-hole preheat configuration. This design maximizes heat distribution, ensuring rapid starts even on surface-rusted plates and providing the stable, consistent preheat flame required for high-quality machine cutting applications. The precision-machined seating surfaces ensure a tight, leak-free connection with the torch head, maintaining safety and gas efficiency.

Compatibility is a key strength of the SC12 series. This tip is designed to fit Smith DG200 and SC200 series cutting attachments (up to max size SC12-5), as well as all SC and DG series hand torches and machine torches. Whether used in a manual hand torch for scrapping or mounted on a machine torch for precision shape cutting, the SC12-4X9 delivers reliable performance. It is an essential inventory item for fabrication shops, shipyards, and field service trucks that encounter diverse cutting scenarios requiring extended reach and substantial cutting capacity.
