0330-0069 - Victor Size 2 Propane/Natural Gas Cutting Tip 1-110 Series

Technical Overview of the Victor 2-1-110 Cutting Tip

The Victor 0330-0069, designated as model 2-1-110, is a specialized cutting tip engineered for oxy-fuel cutting processes utilizing Propane or Natural Gas. As part of the 1-110 series, this consumable is designed to fit industry-standard Victor 300 Series torches and compatible heavy-duty cutting attachments. The "Size 2" classification indicates its calibrated flow rate and orifice size, making it suitable for cutting mild steel ranging from approximately 1 inch to 1-1/2 inches (25mm to 38mm) in thickness.

Unlike acetylene tips, the 1-110 series features a design optimized for the combustion characteristics of alternative fuels. Propane and natural gas require different preheat flame configurations to maintain stability and heat transfer; this tip utilizes a one-piece copper construction with precision-drilled preheat holes to ensure a stable flame front and efficient coupling with the workpiece. The single-piece design also enhances heat dissipation, reducing the risk of tip overheating during prolonged cutting operations.

Operators should adhere to specific pressure settings for optimal performance. For a Size 2 tip in this series, recommended cutting oxygen pressure typically ranges between 35 and 40 PSIG, while preheat fuel pressure should be maintained between 5 and 15 PSIG depending on the specific gas supply and hose length. Proper maintenance, including regular cleaning with appropriate tip cleaners, ensures consistent gas flow and cut quality.
