OVERVIEW

Victor 0333-0400 1-3-GPN Cutting Tip: Precision Propane & Natural Gas Cutting

The Victor 0333-0400 1-3-GPN Cutting Tip is a premium consumable designed for industrial professionals who demand reliability and precision in their oxy-fuel cutting operations. Part of the renowned Victor Series 3, this GPN (General Purpose Natural gas/Propane) tip is engineered specifically for use with alternative fuel gases, distinguishing it from standard acetylene tips. The Size 1 configuration is optimized for cutting mild steel with a thickness of 3/4 inch (19 mm), making it an essential tool for structural fabrication, scrap yards, and maintenance workshops.

This cutting tip features a robust two-piece construction. Unlike single-piece acetylene tips, the GPN series utilizes a brass inner member with splines and a copper outer shell. This design is critical for propane and natural gas, as these fuels have a lower burning velocity than acetylene. The two-piece architecture creates a recess at the tip end, which helps anchor the flame and ensures a stable, high-temperature preheat cone. This results in faster starts and consistent cut quality, even in drafty conditions or when the tip is subjected to reflected heat.

Compatibility is a key strength of the 0333-0400. It is designed to fit Victor 1300 series cutting attachments and any Victor-style hand or machine torch that accepts Series 3 tips. This versatility allows operators to use the same high-quality consumables across different equipment setups, simplifying inventory management. The tip operates efficiently within a cutting oxygen pressure range of 30-35 PSIG and a fuel pressure range of 4-6 PSIG, delivering a cutting speed of 15 to 20 inches per minute. Whether used for hand cutting in the field or precise machine cutting in the shop, the Victor 1-3-GPN ensures optimal gas usage and clean, slag-free cuts.

Manufactured in Mexico to Victor's stringent quality standards, this tip offers durability and long service life. The copper outer shell resists heat adhesion, while the precision-machined splines ensure uniform gas flow. For professionals transitioning from acetylene to propane or natural gas for cost savings or safety reasons, the Victor GPN Series 3 is the industry standard choice for medium-duty cutting applications.

FAQ

This tip is designed specifically for use with Propane or Natural Gas. It is not suitable for Acetylene.

The size 1 tip is rated to cut steel up to 3/4 inch (approximately 19 mm) thick.

No, it fits Victor torches and cutting attachments that accept Series 3 tips, such as the 1300 series attachments. It does not fit torches designed for Series 1 (e.g., 1-101) tips.

The recommended settings are Cutting Oxygen: 30-35 PSIG and Fuel Gas: 4-6 PSIG.

The two-piece design (shell and insert) creates a recess that stabilizes the flame for alternative fuels like propane, which have a lower flame propagation rate than acetylene.

No, the GPN series is designed for general purpose cutting. For gouging, you would typically use a specific gouging tip series.

The Victor part number is 0333-0400.

Generally, yes. Propane requires a slightly longer preheat time than acetylene, but the two-piece design of the GPN tip helps maximize heat transfer to minimize this delay.
