CSSC131 - Victor Cutskill SC13-1 Propane Cutting Tip Size 1

High-Performance Smith Style Propane Cutting Tip

The Victor Cutskill CSSC131 is a premium-quality replacement cutting tip designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial metal fabrication. Engineered as a direct alternative to the Smith SC13-1, this tip is fully compatible with Smith heavy-duty cutting assemblies and torches. It is specifically calibrated for use with alternate fuel gases, such as propane and natural gas, making it an essential consumable for workshops looking to optimize fuel costs without sacrificing cutting performance.

Propane and natural gas require a different mixing and flow dynamic compared to acetylene. The CSSC131 features a specialized two-piece construction, consisting of a brass inner member with splined preheat passages and a copper outer shell. This design protects the tip from the intense reflected heat typical of heavy heating applications and allows for easy cleaning. The splines are precision-engineered to stabilize the flame and provide the heavy preheat required to bring steel to ignition temperature quickly, even with the lower flame temperature of LP gases.

With a Size 1 rating, this tip is ideal for cutting mild steel thicknesses around 5/8 inch. It features heavy-duty seating surfaces that ensure a positive, leak-free seal with the torch head, maintaining safety and efficiency during operation. Whether you are working in structural steel erection, scrap yards, or general heavy fabrication, the Victor Cutskill CSSC131 delivers consistent, slag-free cuts and long service life.

Key Technical Benefits

The Cutskill line by Victor brings legendary quality to the aftermarket sector. By utilizing high-grade copper and brass alloys, this tip resists deformation and wear. The separation of the inner and outer parts allows for straightforward maintenance; if the preheat slots become clogged with spatter, the outer shell can be removed to clean the inner splines effectively, extending the usable life of the consumable.
