The Victor 0330-0178 is a specialized Series 1, Type 218 cutting tip designed for industrial applications requiring precision and power using alternative fuels. Engineered specifically for use with Propane and Natural Gas, this Size 4 tip is a powerhouse for maintenance of way (railroad) applications and heavy fabrication environments. It features a robust one-piece construction that ensures longevity and consistent gas flow, making it a reliable choice for professional welders and fabricators.
With a cutting capacity of up to 3 inches (76mm), the 4-1-218 tip is not just for standard cutting; it excels in specialized tasks such as rivet washing, removing defective welds, and weld preparation. The tip operates efficiently with a cutting speed of 8 to 11 inches per minute, allowing operators to maintain productivity without sacrificing control. The gas consumption rates are engineered for performance, with a total fuel gas consumption of 22-110 cfh and total oxygen consumption of 210-250 cfh, ensuring that you get the heat and force needed for tough jobs.
Proper pressure settings are critical for the optimal performance of this tip. It requires a cutting oxygen pressure range of 40-50 PSIG and a fuel pressure of 6-9 PSIG. The preheat oxygen consumption ranges from 44 to 240 cfh, providing the necessary thermal energy to bring the base metal to ignition temperature quickly, even with the lower heat transfer rate of propane compared to acetylene. This tip is compatible with Victor Series 1 torch handles (typically the 100 series), making it a versatile addition to your existing oxy-fuel equipment setup.
Whether you are working on railroad maintenance, structural steel repair, or general fabrication where rivet removal is necessary, the Victor 4-1-218 offers the specific geometry and flow characteristics required to wash away rivets and gouge metal cleanly. Its origin of manufacture is Mexico, adhering to Victor's high standards of quality and reliability.
