OVERVIEW

Uniweld TH9 Torch Handle Technical Overview

The Uniweld TH9 is a specialized torch handle designed for air/acetylene applications, featuring a robust screw-on connection for compatible tips. Engineered for precision and durability, this handle is a staple in the HVAC and plumbing industries. The unit is distinguished by its front-mounted valve, which provides the operator with immediate access to gas flow adjustments, enhancing process control during delicate soldering or brazing operations.

Technically, the TH9 is outfitted with an "A" size hose connection, utilizing a 3/8"-24 Left Hand thread, which is standard for many compact air-fuel outfits. The handle body is constructed to withstand the rigors of daily field use, featuring a ribbed exterior that promotes heat dissipation and provides a non-slip grip even when wearing work gloves. The internal gas passages are optimized for acetylene flow, ensuring a stable flame when paired with the appropriate screw-connect tips.

This handle does not utilize a quick-connect mechanism; instead, it relies on a threaded screw-on interface for the tip. This ensures a tight, leak-proof seal that is mechanically secure, reducing the risk of accidental disengagement during operation. The TH9 is compatible with a range of Uniweld screw-connect tips, allowing users to swap between different flame sizes depending on the pipe diameter and material thickness required for the job.
