OVERVIEW

Victor 5-1-303MP Propylene Cutting Tip Overview

The Victor 5-1-303MP (SKU: 0330-0196) is a specialized cutting tip designed for industrial applications utilizing Propylene gas. As part of the Victor Series 1 family, this tip is engineered to fit industry-standard Victor 300 Series torch handles, ensuring broad compatibility with existing heavy-duty equipment found in fabrication shops and maintenance facilities. The 'MP' designation indicates its specific optimization for MAPP® and Propylene gases, which burn with different characteristics than Acetylene or standard Propane, requiring specific internal geometry for flame stability and efficiency.

This Size 5 tip is a heavy-hitter in the cutting world, rated for material thicknesses up to 4 inches (approximately 100mm). This capacity makes it a primary choice for structural steel fabrication, heavy equipment repair, and demolition tasks where deep penetration and consistent heat input are required. The tip features a one-piece construction that Victor is renowned for, providing durability and resistance to the harsh thermal cycles inherent in manual and mechanized cutting operations.

Propylene offers a high heat release in the secondary flame, and the 303MP tip is designed to harness this energy effectively. Unlike general-purpose tips that may struggle with flame detachment or inefficient preheating when used with alternative fuels, the 303MP ensures a stable preheat flame and a coherent cutting oxygen stream. This results in cleaner cuts with less slag adhesion, reducing post-cut grinding and preparation time. For MRO professionals and industrial buyers, stocking the 0330-0196 ensures that operators have the correct consumable for high-capacity propylene cutting tasks.

FAQ

This tip is designed specifically for Propylene gas. It is optimized to handle the specific flow and burn characteristics of propylene/MAPP gas.

The Size 5 tip (5-1-303MP) is rated to cut steel up to 4 inches (approx. 101mm) thick.

It fits Victor 300 Series torch handles and other equipment compatible with Victor Series 1 cutting tips.

No, you should never use a propylene/MAPP tip with Acetylene. Acetylene requires specific tips (like the 1-101) to prevent dangerous flashbacks and ensure proper flame characteristics.

Yes, the manufacturer specifies this tip for both manual and mechanized (machine) torch cutting applications.

Type 303MP is designed for Propylene/MAPP gas, while Type GPN is typically designed for Natural Gas and Propane. Using the specific tip for your gas ensures the best preheat and cut quality.
