0333-0262 - Victor 0-GPP Propylene Cutting Tip Size 0 (0333-0262)

High-Performance Propylene Cutting with Victor 0-GPP

The Victor 0-GPP Cutting Tip (0333-0262) is a premium consumable designed specifically for industrial professionals utilizing propylene gas for oxy-fuel cutting. As part of the Victor Large Series, this tip is engineered to deliver optimal performance when paired with Victor 300 Series torch handles and cutting attachments. The "GPP" designation stands for General Purpose Propylene, indicating its versatility across a wide range of fabrication, structural steel, and maintenance applications.

Optimized Design for Alternative Fuels

Unlike acetylene tips which typically feature a flat face, the 0-GPP utilizes a recessed tip design. Propylene and other alternative fuels have a slower burn rate than acetylene; the recess in this tip acts as a combustion chamber, holding the flame anchor point stable and preventing it from blowing off the tip end during operation. This design ensures a consistent, high-temperature preheat flame necessary for piercing and cutting steel efficiently.

Two-Piece Construction

This Size 0 tip features a durable two-piece construction, consisting of a brass inner member with splines for gas flow and a brass outer shell. This configuration is superior for alternative fuels as it allows for easier cleaning. If the splines become clogged with slag or carbon, the outer shell can be removed to access and clean the inner member directly, extending the lifespan of the consumable. The heavy-duty brass material withstands high heat and harsh industrial environments.

Operational Specifications

The Victor 0-GPP Size 0 is rated for cutting material thicknesses between 3/8 inch and 1/2 inch (approx. 10-12mm). For optimal results, operators should adhere to the manufacturer's recommended pressure settings: a cutting oxygen pressure of 30-35 PSIG and a fuel gas pressure of 3-5 PSIG. Proper pressure settings ensure a clean kerf, minimal slag accumulation, and efficient gas consumption (approx. 8-10 CFH for fuel). Whether used for manual hand cutting or mechanized machine cutting, this genuine Victor part delivers the reliability and precision required for professional metalworking.
