OVERVIEW

High-Capacity Brazing with TurboTorch A-32

The TurboTorch EXTREME A-32 Standard Replacement Tip (0386-0106) is a powerhouse component designed for professional plumbers, HVAC technicians, and industrial fabricators who require reliable, high-heat output for large-diameter tubing. Engineered with TurboTorch's proprietary Swirl Combustion Technology, this air-acetylene tip maximizes heat transfer efficiency, allowing the flame to wrap around the workpiece. This ensures even heating and faster penetration of solder or braze alloy, which is critical when working on substantial copper piping systems found in commercial refrigeration and industrial plumbing.

Heavy-Duty Performance Specs

The A-32 is built to handle the most demanding jobs in the field. With a substantial 3/4-inch tip size, it offers an impressive capacity range. It can effectively soft solder copper tubing between 4 inches and 6 inches in diameter and silver braze tubing from 1-1/2 inches up to 4 inches. This makes it an essential tool for main line installations and heavy commercial repairs where standard tips would struggle to maintain the necessary working temperature. The tip operates efficiently with a gas flow of approximately 33.2 SCFH at 14 PSI, striking a balance between fuel economy and raw thermal power.

Safety and Compatibility

Safety and ease of use are paramount in the design of the A-32. The tip features a color-coded red O-ring, providing a clear visual indicator that it is designed exclusively for use with Acetylene gas, helping to prevent dangerous fuel mix-ups on busy job sites. It is designed with a quick-disconnect coupling that fits seamlessly with TurboTorch G-4 and PLF-A5 torch handles, allowing for rapid tip changes without the need for tools. Additionally, the tip includes a removable orifice screw, making it simple to clean out carbon buildup or debris, extending the lifespan of the equipment and ensuring consistent flame quality over time.

Reliable Construction

Manufactured to meet the rigorous standards of the trade, the A-32 tip is constructed from durable materials capable of withstanding high temperatures and the physical abuse of daily transport and use. Whether you are installing commercial HVAC units or repairing large-scale plumbing infrastructure, the TurboTorch A-32 delivers the consistent, high-intensity heat required for leak-free joints and professional results.
