The Victor 1-W-1 Welding Nozzle (SKU: 0387-0031) is a premium component designed for professional welders who demand reliability and precision in their oxy-fuel operations. Part of the renowned Victor 100 Series, this medium-duty nozzle is engineered to deliver optimal flame characteristics for general welding and preheating tasks. Whether you are working in an automotive shop, performing HVAC repairs, or handling light fabrication, the 1-W-1 nozzle provides the control necessary for high-quality results.
At the core of this nozzle's performance is Victor's individual spiral mixer. Unlike generic tips that may produce inconsistent flames, the spiral mixer blends oxygen and fuel gas—specifically Acetylene or Hydrogen—thoroughly to create a stable, long cone flame. This flame profile is essential for maintaining the correct puddle fluidity and penetration during welding. The tip itself features a 65-degree angle, offering excellent visibility and access to joints, which is critical when working in tight spaces or on complex assemblies.
Durability is a hallmark of Victor equipment, and the 1-W-1 is no exception. The tip is constructed from a single piece of copper, which provides superior heat conductivity and resistance to spatter adhesion compared to multi-piece designs. This copper elbow is mated to a robust brass coupling nut. A thoughtful design element is the built-in snap ring within the nut, which serves to protect the cone-end of the nozzle from damage during storage or handling, ensuring a long service life.
One of the most user-friendly features of the Victor 1-W-1 is its double O-ring seal. This design innovation allows for a gas-tight connection to the torch handle without the need for a wrench. Welders can simply hand-tighten the nozzle, making tip changes fast and efficient while reducing wear on the torch threads. Compatible with Victor 100 Series torch handles, this nozzle represents the standard for medium-duty oxy-acetylene welding.
