PW315 - Victor Style 315 Heavy Duty Torch Handle with Check Valves

Industrial Grade Heavy Duty Torch Handle

The Victor Style 315 Torch Handle (PW315) is a robust, heavy-duty solution designed for professional fabrication, construction, and industrial maintenance environments. Engineered to replicate the performance and ergonomics of the industry-standard Victor 315FC, this handle provides a seamless replacement or upgrade for existing oxy-fuel setups. Constructed from high-quality brass and stainless steel, the PW315 is built to withstand the rigors of daily shop use, offering exceptional resistance to heat, impact, and corrosion.

One of the critical features of this handle is its versatility. It is fully compatible with Victor-style 300 series cutting attachments (such as the CA2460) and a wide range of welding nozzles and heating tips. This modularity allows operators to switch rapidly between cutting, welding, brazing, and heating tasks without changing the primary gas supply lines. The handle utilizes a "tube-within-a-tube" design, which not only enhances structural integrity but also ensures high gas flow capacity, necessary for heavy heating applications and cutting thick steel sections.

Safety and precision are paramount in the design of the PW315. The unit comes equipped with built-in reverse flow check valves, a crucial safety feature that helps prevent the backflow of gases, thereby reducing the risk of mixed-gas accidents. The control valves feature stainless steel ball stems, ensuring smooth adjustment and positive shut-off, allowing for precise flame tuning whether you are using acetylene, propane, or propylene. The inlet connections are standard "B" size (9/16"-18), making this handle compatible with the vast majority of industrial twin welding hoses.

For procurement managers and shop foremen, the PW315 represents a high-value alternative to OEM parts without compromising on essential specifications. Its compatibility with standard consumables and attachments simplifies inventory management, as it integrates directly into existing tool ecosystems that utilize the Victor 300 series platform.
