The TurboTorch T-5 Replacement Tip (SKU: 0386-0153) represents a pinnacle in air-fuel combustion engineering, specifically designed for the professional HVAC technician, plumber, and light fabrication specialist. Part of the renowned T-Series manual torch line, this tip integrates TurboTorch's proprietary Swirl Combustion Technology. This advanced airflow design creates a vortex within the tip, maximizing the mixture of fuel and air to produce a high-velocity, high-temperature flame. This results in superior heat transfer rates compared to standard tips, allowing for faster heating times and reduced gas consumption.
Engineered for versatility, the T-5 tip is fully compatible with both Propane and MAP-Pro gases, offering flexibility depending on the thermal requirements of the job. When utilizing MAP-Pro gas, this 3/4-inch tip delivers a robust delivery rate of 1.3 cubic feet per hour (cfh) at 42 psi. This power output enables the user to soft solder copper piping ranging from 1 inch up to 4 inches in diameter, and perform silver brazing on pipes from 1/2 inch to 2 inches. Such capacity makes it an indispensable tool for residential and commercial plumbing installations where speed and joint integrity are paramount.
The physical construction of the T-5 tip is built to withstand the rigors of daily field use. It features a durable orifice and tip assembly that resists fouling and wear. The manual series design offers an economical alternative to self-lighting systems without compromising on flame quality or thermal output. Whether you are performing routine maintenance, installing new HVAC lines, or engaging in hobbyist metalwork, the T-5 provides the consistent, concentrated heat necessary for high-quality metallurgical bonds.
Technical specifications highlight the precision of this component. With Propane, the tip operates efficiently at 24 psi with a flow rate of 1.10 cfh, suitable for soft soldering up to 2-1/2 inches. The ability to switch between gases without changing the tip hardware (merely adjusting pressure and technique) adds to the operational efficiency of the technician's toolkit. This product is a direct replacement for T-5 tips found in various TurboTorch manual handle kits.
