The Victor ST2690FCL (0381-1522) is a premium heavy-duty straight cutting torch designed for the most demanding industrial environments. Part of the renowned VanGuard series, this torch is engineered to withstand the rigors of scrap yards, foundries, and heavy demolition sites. Its defining feature is its impressive 96-inch (8-foot) length, which provides operators with a critical safety buffer against radiant heat and falling materials.
Safety is paramount in oxy-fuel cutting, especially with high-capacity equipment. The ST2690FCL comes equipped with Victor's VanGuard safety features, including built-in flashback arrestors and reverse flow check valves. These integrated safety devices eliminate the need for add-on accessory arrestors that can add weight and restrict flow, ensuring the torch remains balanced and efficient while protecting the gas supply from dangerous flashbacks.
Built to last, the torch features high-strength stainless steel gas tubes that resist corrosion and bending. The head is crafted from die-forged brass, ensuring it maintains its shape and seal integrity even after prolonged exposure to extreme heat. The 90-degree head angle offers a standard, ergonomic cutting position suitable for a wide variety of vertical and horizontal cutting tasks. With a cutting capacity of up to 8 inches (depending on the tip used), this tool is a powerhouse for processing heavy steel sections.
The ST2690FCL utilizes standard Victor Series 1 cutting tips, making consumables easy to source and replace. It is compatible with all fuel gases—including acetylene, propane, propylene, and natural gas—provided the correct tip is installed. The industry-standard "B" size 9/16"-18 inlet connections ensure compatibility with standard Grade T and Grade R hoses.
