OVERVIEW

Precision Cutting for Thin Gauge Metals

The Victor Cutskill CSMC1200 is a premium-quality replacement cutting tip designed to fit Smith-style medium duty torches. Engineered for professionals and hobbyists who demand reliability without the premium price tag of OEM parts, this tip is part of the renowned Victor Cutskill series. It is specifically calibrated as a Size 00 tip, making it the ideal choice for fine, detailed work on thinner steel sections ranging from 1/8 inch to 3/16 inch.

Whether you are working on auto body repairs, HVAC ducting, or artistic metal sculpture, having the right tip size is crucial for controlling heat input and achieving a clean kerf. The CSMC1200 utilizes Acetylene gas, known for its high flame temperature and focused heat, allowing for quick starts and precise control. Because it is manufactured by Victor, a global leader in gas equipment, you can trust the machining tolerances and material quality to deliver a consistent flame pattern every time you light the torch.

Value and Compatibility

One of the biggest challenges in maintaining a welding shop is managing the cost of consumables. The Cutskill line addresses this by offering fully compatible, high-performance tips that fit your existing equipment. This tip drops directly into Smith medium-duty cutting attachments (typically the MC12 series compatibility) with a secure seat, ensuring no leaks and safe operation. It eliminates the need to buy expensive OEM replacements while still providing the durability required for daily use.

Ready for the Job

Equipping your torch with a fresh tip like the CSMC1200 can instantly improve your cutting performance. Worn tips with clogged preheat holes or damaged faces lead to ragged cuts and wasted gas. By keeping a stock of these affordable Victor Cutskill tips, you ensure that your projects proceed smoothly, with less time spent grinding away dross and more time fabricating. Upgrade your setup today with this essential consumable.

FAQ

The CSMC1200 is designed to fit Smith-style medium duty torch handles and cutting attachments that accept the MC12 series tips.

No, this tip is designed exclusively for Oxy-Acetylene. Using it with propane will result in poor flame stability and potential overheating. You need a specific propane tip (usually two-piece) for that fuel.

No, this is a Victor Cutskill brand part. It is a high-quality aftermarket replacement manufactured by Victor/ESAB to be fully compatible with Smith equipment.

A Size 00 tip is designed for thin metal, typically cutting steel ranging from 1/8 inch to 3/16 inch thick.

You should use the cutting tip nut that came with your Smith-style cutting attachment. This tip is shaped to fit that standard nut.

Victor Cutskill offers a balance of price and quality, backed by Victor's manufacturing standards, ensuring better safety and consistency than unknown generic brands.

While settings can vary by specific job conditions, a Size 00 tip typically runs well with Acetylene at 5-10 PSIG and Oxygen at approximately 20-25 PSIG. Always refer to a cutting chart for precise settings.

Use a standard tip cleaner set. Select the wire size that fits snugly but freely into the preheat and cutting oxygen holes. Move it back and forth to remove carbon deposits without enlarging the holes.

This is a one-piece copper tip, which is the standard design for acetylene cutting tips to ensure proper heat conduction and flame characteristics.

Attempting to cut thicker metal may result in a slow cut speed, excessive slag, and potential overheating of the tip due to blowback. It is best to step up to a Size 0 or Size 1 tip for thicker material.

Smith-style tips typically utilize a seating face that relies on metal-to-metal contact. Ensure the torch head seat is clean and not damaged before tightening the nut to prevent leaks.

The Victor Cutskill CSMC1200 is machined to replicate the standard preheat pattern of the OEM MC12 series, providing a neutral flame that is easy to set and maintain.
