The Victor 0381-1407 HC1232C Straight Cutting Torch is a powerhouse tool designed for the most demanding industrial environments. Part of the renowned HC 1200C Series, this torch is engineered to tackle heavy-duty applications such as scrapping, demolition, and structural steel dismantling. With a massive cutting capacity of up to 18 inches (457 mm), it stands as a premier choice for professionals who require deep, reliable cuts through thick materials.
One of the standout features of the HC1232C is its universal mixer. This advanced design allows the torch to operate efficiently with any fuel gas—including Acetylene, Propane, Propylene, and Natural Gas—provided the pressure is 2 PSIG or above. This versatility reduces the need for multiple torches for different fuel types. Safety is paramount in heavy industry, which is why Victor has integrated reverse flow check valves directly into the torch, mitigating the risk of gas backflow and enhancing operator protection.
The torch boasts an overall length of 36 inches, providing significant reach that is crucial when working on large scrap piles or cutting overhead structures. This extra length also helps keep the operator further away from the intense heat zone and potential falling debris. The 180-degree head angle (straight) is specifically favored for gouging applications and cutting directly downward into materials, offering a distinct advantage over angled heads in specific scrapping scenarios. The top rear lever position ensures ergonomic control, allowing for smooth oxygen actuation even while wearing heavy protective gloves.
