CS11184 - Victor Style 1-118-4 Acetylene Gouging & Scarfing Tip

Victor Style 1-118-4 Acetylene Gouging & Scarfing Tip

The Victor Style 1-118-4 (CS11184) is a specialized oxy-acetylene tip engineered for aggressive metal removal applications. Unlike standard cutting tips designed to sever material completely, the 1-118 series is optimized for deseaming, scarfing, gouging, rivet washing, and weld preparation. This makes it an essential tool for maintenance, repair, and fabrication professionals who need to remove defective welds, prepare joints, or strip rivet heads without damaging the base material.

Manufactured under the Cutskill® trade name, this tip delivers industrial-grade performance compatible with standard Victor 300 Series torch handles and cutting attachments (such as the 315FC and CA2460). It features a robust design capable of withstanding high-heat environments typical of heavy fabrication. The tip operates efficiently with Acetylene, requiring a fuel pressure of 5-10 PSIG and a cutting oxygen pressure of 40-50 PSIG. This specific pressure balance allows for a controlled wash of the metal, enabling the operator to maintain a steady speed of 9-12 inches per minute (IPM).

The 1-118-4 is a Size 4 tip, offering a substantial flame profile suitable for medium-to-heavy gouging tasks. Its precision-drilled ports ensure a stable preheat flame (consuming 20-33 SCFH of oxygen) and a powerful cutting stream (270-320 SCFH) that effectively blows away molten slag. Whether you are correcting weld defects or dismantling riveted structures, this tip provides the control and power necessary for high-quality surface preparation.
