OVERVIEW

Efficient Heating Solutions with Uniweld

The Uniweld TYPE11TE-5 Heating Tip End #5 is a premium accessory designed for professionals who demand reliability and performance in their oxy-fuel operations. Whether you are working in an automotive repair shop, a metal fabrication facility, or an industrial maintenance environment, having the right heating tip is crucial for tasks such as metal straightening, bending, and preheating. This specific model utilizes a multi-flame design, often referred to as a "rosebud," which distributes heat over a larger surface area more evenly than standard welding tips.

Manufactured by Uniweld, a trusted name in the welding industry, this tip is engineered to work specifically with Acetylene gas. Acetylene provides the highest flame temperature of all fuel gases, making this tip exceptionally efficient for rapid heating applications. The #5 size strikes a perfect balance, offering enough heat output for substantial metalworking tasks without being unwieldy for medium-sized projects. Its copper construction ensures excellent thermal conductivity and durability, allowing it to withstand the rigors of daily industrial use.

Integrating this heating tip into your toolkit enhances your capability to perform thermal processes with precision. It is ideal for loosening rusted nuts and bolts, preheating castings before welding to prevent cracking, or heating steel bars for bending. The Uniweld TYPE11TE-5 represents a smart investment for any workshop looking to maintain high standards of quality and efficiency in their thermal processing work.

Common Applications

  • Preheating: Preparing base metals for welding to reduce thermal shock.
  • Metal Bending: Heating bars, pipes, and flats to facilitate shaping.
  • Straightening: Correcting distortions in steel structures using localized heat.
  • Brazing: Providing the broad heat source necessary for flowing brazing alloys.

FAQ

The Uniweld TYPE11TE-5 is designed specifically for use with Acetylene gas.

This is a size #5 heating tip.

No, it requires a compatible mixer or elbow that accepts Type 11 tip ends, typically found on Uniweld or Victor-style handles.

A 'rosebud' tip is a multi-flame heating tip used to heat large areas of metal quickly, as opposed to a single-flame welding tip.

No, Type 11 tips are generally designed for Acetylene. Propane requires different injector or recessed tip designs (like Type 12 or similar) due to different burn velocities.

Pressure settings vary by manufacturer charts, but generally, a #5 multi-flame tip requires higher volume flow than a welding tip. Consult the Uniweld tip chart for specific PSI settings for oxygen and acetylene.

Multi-flame tips consume a large volume of acetylene. You must ensure your cylinder is large enough to supply the required flow rate without exceeding the 1/7th withdrawal rule to avoid drawing acetone into the regulator.

The SKU TYPE11TE-5 refers to the Tip End. It typically screws into a mixer or elbow assembly which then attaches to the torch handle.
