6700C0715 - Victor 8-VBN Bulldog Propane Cutting Tip, 10-Inch Capacity

Heavy-Duty Scrap Cutting Performance

The Victor® Cutskill® Bulldog 8-VBN Cutting Tip (SKU: 6700C0715) is a specialized consumable engineered for high-efficiency scrap cutting using Propane or Natural Gas. Featuring a robust two-piece heavy wall design, this tip is specifically built to withstand the harsh thermal and physical conditions found in demolition sites and scrap yards. The unique "Bulldog" profile provides superior resistance to slag build-up, ensuring consistent performance and significantly reducing downtime required for tip cleaning.

Optimized for Alternative Fuels

Unlike standard acetylene tips, the 8-VBN utilizes a two-piece construction that includes a brass outer shell and an internal splined insert. This configuration is essential for stabilizing the flame of slower-burning fuel gases like propane and natural gas. The design creates a heavy preheat flame capable of rapidly bringing thick, often rusty or painted steel to ignition temperature. With a size 8 orifice, this tip offers a substantial cutting capacity of approximately 10 inches (254 mm), making it suitable for severing thick structural steel, heavy machinery parts, and large vessels.

Durability and Specifications

Manufactured in the United States, the 8-VBN integrates seamlessly with Victor-style torches compatible with VBN series tips. Its heavy-duty brass outer shell protects the internal splines and maintains flame stability even when the tip is inadvertently touched to the work surface—a common occurrence in rough scrap cutting operations. The physical dimensions of the tip are 0.9 x 0.9 x 3.4 inches, reflecting its substantial build quality compared to general-purpose nozzles. By utilizing lower-cost fuel gases without sacrificing cutting speed on heavy sections, the Victor Cutskill Bulldog series represents a cost-effective solution for industrial metal processing.
