2219219 - ESAB Oxweld C-63 Heavy Duty Scrapping Torch 72-Inch 180-Degree Head

Heavy-Duty Industrial Cutting Power

The ESAB Oxweld C-63-72-180 (SKU: 2219219) represents the pinnacle of heavy-duty scrapping and foundry cutting equipment. Designed for environments where standard cutting gear cannot compete, this torch is built to slice through steel sections ranging from 9 inches all the way up to 60 inches in thickness. This immense cutting capacity makes it an essential tool for demolition crews, steel mills, and foundries dealing with massive risers, ingots, and heavy scrap.

Unique 180-Degree Head Design

What sets the C-63 apart is its specialized head geometry. The torch features an off-center 180-degree head. This straight-on configuration is not just for reach; it is engineered to allow the operator to widen the kerf (the slit made by the cut) simply by rotating the torch. Once the kerf is widened, the slim profile of the torch allows it to be inserted directly into the cut to deepen it further. This capability is critical when severing extremely thick materials where a single pass from the surface is insufficient.

Safety and Reach

Safety is paramount in heavy industrial cutting. The C-63 boasts an impressive 72-inch length, placing a significant distance between the operator and the intense heat generated by cutting 60-inch steel. Furthermore, the torch utilizes separate inlets for preheat oxygen and cutting oxygen. This separation ensures stable flow rates and minimizes the risk of flashback or gas starvation during critical cuts. Optimized for alternate fuels like propane and natural gas, this torch offers an economical solution for high-volume cutting without sacrificing thermal performance.

Reliability You Can Trust

As part of the legendary Oxweld line, the C-63 is constructed to withstand the rough handling typical of scrap yards and mills. It utilizes the 1808 series cutting tips, known for their durability and precision in heavy-flame applications. When your project involves dismantling massive infrastructure or processing heavy raw materials, the ESAB Oxweld C-63 delivers the power and reach required to get the job done efficiently.
