6700C0717 - Victor 12-VBN Propane Scrap Cutting Tip

Heavy-Duty Propane Cutting Performance

The Victor 6700C0717 12-VBN Cutskill Bulldog Cutting Tip is a specialized consumable designed for the rigorous demands of the scrap and demolition industries. Part of the renowned Cutskill line, this "Bulldog" series tip is engineered to provide a balance of durability, performance, and value. The "VBN" designation indicates its optimization for use with alternative fuels, specifically Propane and Natural Gas, making it an economical choice for operations where acetylene is not the preferred fuel gas.

This specific model is a Size 12 tip, which places it at the upper end of the capacity spectrum for handheld cutting operations. Such a large orifice size allows for the delivery of substantial preheat energy and cutting oxygen flow, enabling the operator to sever very thick sections of steel efficiently. The internal geometry is tailored to maintain a stable flame even when subjected to the blowback and turbulence often encountered in scrap yards.

Compatibility is a key feature of the 12-VBN. It is designed to fit standard Victor-style heavy-duty torches (typically the 300 series or compatible handles). The tip features a heavy-wall shell that provides extra resistance to physical damage, such as knocks against the workpiece or accidental drops, which are common in aggressive cutting environments. The seating surfaces are precision-machined to ensure a leak-free seal with the torch head, maintaining safety and efficiency during operation.

For industrial MRO and scrap processing, the Victor 12-VBN represents a reliable solution for processing mild steel. Its ability to handle dirty, rusty, or painted surfaces—thanks to its aggressive preheat capability—reduces prep time and increases throughput. Whether used for dismantling structural steel, processing rail cars, or general heavy scrap cutting, this tip delivers the consistent heat and oxygen stream required for clean, rapid severance.
