0312-0064 - Victor Heavy Duty Heating Nozzle Elbow Extension

Heavy-Duty Victor Heating Adaptor

The Victor 0312-0064 Elbow Extension Adaptor is a critical component designed for industrial oxy-fuel heating applications. Manufactured by Victor, a leader in gas equipment technology, this adaptor serves as the structural and functional link between the torch mixer and the heating head (often referred to as a rosebud). In heavy industrial environments such as shipyards, structural steel fabrication, and heavy equipment repair, the ability to manipulate large heating flames with precision is paramount. This elbow extension provides the necessary angle and reach to apply heat exactly where it is needed without compromising the safety of the operator or the integrity of the equipment.

Constructed from high-grade brass and copper alloys, the 0312-0064 is engineered to withstand the intense thermal cycling inherent in heavy heating operations. Unlike inferior aftermarket copies, genuine Victor parts are machined to exacting tolerances. This ensures that the gas seal remains tight, preventing dangerous leaks that can occur with thermal expansion and contraction. The internal bore is finished to promote laminar gas flow, which is essential for maintaining a stable flame profile and preventing flashbacks in high-output heating tips. When dealing with large volumes of acetylene or propane, the integrity of every connection in the torch assembly is a matter of safety and efficiency.

This adaptor is specifically designed to fit Victor's heavy-duty heating systems. It allows for the attachment of various heating heads, giving the operator versatility in flame size and BTU output. Whether preheating thick plate for welding, straightening warped steel, or bending pipe, the Victor 0312-0064 ensures that your equipment performs reliably. Regular inspection of torch elbows is recommended, as thread wear and heat stress can degrade components over time. Replacing worn elbows with genuine Victor parts restores the original performance specifications of your heating outfit.
