The Victor 0330-0116 (Model 8-1-118) is a specialized oxy-acetylene tip engineered for non-severing metal removal applications. Unlike standard cutting tips designed to slice through materials, the Type 118 series features a specific geometry optimized for deseaming, scarfing, gouging, and rivet washing. This Size 8 tip provides a substantial flame and oxygen stream capable of washing away molten metal rapidly, making it an essential consumable for heavy fabrication, structural repair, and maintenance operations where surface defects or old welds must be removed efficiently.
Manufactured in Mexico to Victor's rigorous industrial standards, this tip utilizes a one-piece copper alloy construction. This design ensures excellent thermal conductivity, keeping the tip cooler during high-heat operations like gouging, which significantly extends the consumable's service life. The internal gas paths are precision-drilled to ensure a stable preheat flame and a focused cutting oxygen stream that digs into the metal surface at a controlled angle. This allows operators to remove rivet heads or gouge out weld roots with high precision, minimizing the need for secondary grinding or machining.
The 8-1-118 is designed for use with Acetylene gas, leveraging its high flame temperature and concentrated heat input to establish the puddle quickly. It is compatible with Victor heavy-duty torch handles and cutting attachments, specifically the 300 series and compatible equipment. Industrial MRO professionals rely on the Type 118 for its versatility in weld preparation and demolition tasks where preserving the underlying base material is critical.
