OVERVIEW

Reliable Ignition for Industrial Applications

In the demanding environment of industrial welding and fabrication, equipment reliability is paramount down to the smallest component. The Shurlite Tri-Flint Renewal Flints (SHU5012X) are engineered to provide consistent, high-temperature sparks essential for the safe and immediate ignition of oxy-fuel cutting and welding torches. Designed specifically for the Shurlite family of three-flint lighters, as well as compatible models like the Fuller 4501, these replacements ensure that your operations are not halted by a failure to ignite.

Precision Fit and Engineering

One of the common failure points in generic striker flints is poor fitment, which can lead to the flint dislodging from the holder or failing to make adequate contact with the file. Shurlite addresses this with a guarantee that these renewal flints will fit perfectly and remain seated in the flint holder throughout their lifespan. The triangular design is integral to the tri-flint mechanism, allowing operators to simply rotate the assembly to a fresh flint when one is worn down, thereby tripling the time between necessary maintenance intervals.

Extended Lifespan and Economy

These renewal flints are manufactured with a larger volume of ferrocerium material compared to standard economy options. This "larger size for longer life" approach translates to more strikes per flint and reduced downtime for consumables replacement. Packaged economically with four flints on a single card, this SKU provides a sufficient supply to keep a workstation operational for an extended period. For MRO managers and procurement specialists, stocking genuine Shurlite renewals ensures compatibility and performance, reducing the waste associated with ill-fitting generic alternatives.

Safety and Performance

A reliable spark is a safety feature. Struggling to light a torch with a worn or poor-quality flint can lead to gas buildup and potential hazards. Shurlite flints are formulated to generate a hot, vigorous spark immediately upon striking, ensuring the fuel gas ignites instantly. This consistency is vital for maintaining a safe workflow in busy shops where multiple torches are in use. Whether used for acetylene, propane, or propylene setups, these flints deliver the thermal energy required for ignition.

FAQ

No, these are triangular flints designed specifically for three-flint (tri-flint) lighters. Single-flint strikers typically use a small cylindrical flint.

Yes, these flints are listed as compatible with the Fuller 4501 as well as the entire Shurlite family of tri-flint lighters.

This package contains 4 individual triangular flints mounted on a card.

Shurlite renewals are guaranteed to remain seated in the holder and are often larger than generic alternatives, providing a longer service life and better spark consistency.

No, ferrocerium flints do not have a shelf life and will not degrade over time if kept dry, making them excellent for long-term storage.

When the spark becomes weak or the flint surface is worn flat and no longer contacts the file effectively, rotate the triangular assembly to the next fresh flint.

They are made of ferrocerium, a specialized pyrophoric alloy that produces hot sparks when struck against a rough steel surface.
