OVERVIEW

High-Performance Swirl Combustion Tip

The Uniweld UNIT-5 Twister Tip is a premium replacement component designed for professional HVAC technicians and plumbers who demand efficiency and reliability. Engineered to fit standard TurboTorch style handles, this #5 tip utilizes advanced helical blade technology. This internal design creates a high-velocity swirl flame that wraps around the workpiece, maximizing heat transfer and ensuring even temperature distribution. This is critical for creating leak-free brazed joints on copper tubing, especially in larger diameters where consistent heat is required.

Constructed from industrial-grade stainless steel and brass, the UNIT-5 is built to withstand the rigors of daily field use. It is optimized for use with Propane (LP) and MAP//Pro (Propylene) gases, offering versatility depending on the fuel source available. The tip features a quick-disconnect design (depending on the specific handle interface, typically compatible with T-handle series) or standard threading that matches the industry-standard TurboTorch interface. This allows for seamless integration into existing tool kits without the need for adapters.

Maintenance is simplified with a removable orifice screw, allowing technicians to easily clean out carbon buildup or debris that may affect flame performance. Whether you are soldering water lines or brazing refrigerant lines, the Uniweld UNIT-5 delivers the thermal output necessary to get the job done quickly. Its stable flame resists blowout even in windy conditions, making it an excellent choice for rooftop HVAC installations and outdoor plumbing repairs.

FAQ

The UNIT-5 is designed to fit Uniweld handles and is also compatible with TurboTorch style handles that accept quick-disconnect or standard screw-in air/fuel tips (specifically the T-series handles).

No, the UNIT-5 is designed for use with Propane (LP) or MAP//Pro (Propylene) gases. Using it with Acetylene can be dangerous and will not function correctly.

The swirl flame technology creates a vortex that wraps around the pipe, providing better heat transfer and faster brazing times compared to a standard pencil flame.

The tip features a removable orifice screw. You can remove this screw to access the internal components and clean out any debris or carbon buildup.

A #5 tip is generally suitable for soft soldering up to 1-1/2" and silver brazing up to 3/4" copper tubing, though this can vary based on the specific gas used.

Yes, the UNIT-5 is made with a stainless steel burn tube and brass connection points, making it highly durable and resistant to the high temperatures of daily brazing.
