5402-3004 - Victor N-3 Acetylene Brazing Tip, Size 3

Precision Acetylene Brazing Tip

The Victor N-3 Acetylene Tip is a specialized consumable designed for light-duty oxy-acetylene applications, specifically brazing, soldering, and localized heating. Engineered to meet the rigorous standards associated with the Victor brand, this tip is manufactured from high-quality brass to withstand the thermal stresses of continuous operation while maintaining a consistent flame profile. The "N-3" designation indicates a Size 3 orifice, which is optimized for fine detail work where heat control is paramount, such as in jewelry repair, electronics manufacturing, or light metal fabrication.

This tip is designed to be compatible with National style blowpipes, specifically the 3A and 3B series handles, which are industry standards for precision bench work. The threaded connection ensures a gas-tight seal, preventing leaks and ensuring safety during operation. Unlike multi-flame heating nozzles or cutting tips, the N-3 produces a single, concentrated pencil flame. This allows the operator to direct heat exactly where it is needed without damaging surrounding components or overheating the base metal. The tip's internal geometry is machined to promote smooth gas flow and stable combustion, reducing the likelihood of popping or flashback when used with proper pressure settings.

In industrial MRO contexts, the N-3 tip serves as an essential replacement part for maintenance teams that handle HVAC repairs, small tubing connections, or instrument calibration equipment requiring flame soldering. Its durability and reliable performance make it a cost-effective solution for maintaining workflow efficiency. Users should ensure they are using this tip with acetylene gas only, as the orifice sizing and mixing characteristics are specifically tuned for the combustion properties of acetylene.
