Maximize your productivity with the TurboTorch 0386-0828 PL-12ASTD Extreme Self Lighting Acetylene Kit. Designed for the modern welder and tradesperson, this kit integrates advanced combustion technology with user-friendly features to deliver superior brazing and soldering results. The standout feature is the Extreme Swirl Technology, which generates a vortex flame that delivers higher heat transfer rates than standard air-acetylene torches. This means you can complete joints faster, use less fuel, and move on to the next task sooner.
The kit comes ready to work with the G-4 Torch Handle and the PL-12A Self-Lighting Tip. The G-4 handle is crafted for comfort and control, featuring a rear-positioned valve that allows for precise flame adjustments on the fly. The quick-disconnect mechanism is a favorite among professionals, enabling instant tip changes to accommodate different pipe sizes without the hassle of threaded connections. The PL-12A tip itself is a powerhouse, offering a self-ignition trigger that lights the flame instantly, saving time and eliminating the frustration of lost or worn-out strikers.
Application capabilities are robust, with the ability to soft solder up to 4 inches and silver braze up to 2 inches. This range covers the vast majority of plumbing and HVAC/R requirements, from water lines to AC line sets. The unit is also designed with safety and maintenance in mind; the tip is replaceable, and the connection points feature color-coded O-rings (red for acetylene) to ensure proper gas line identification. This attention to detail prevents setup errors and enhances overall safety.
When you choose the TurboTorch PL-12ASTD from Welders Supply, you are getting a tool that is synonymous with quality in the welding and industrial maintenance sectors. Its rugged construction ensures it can handle the bumps and drops of a busy job site, while its performance characteristics help you achieve professional-grade bonds every time. Upgrade your torch arsenal with a kit that defines speed, heat, and reliability.

Essential HVAC Tool
I've owned this same kit for over 20 years and finally bought a new one. I'm an HVAC contractor and have used my Turbo Torch heavily.
My old one still works, but the fine adjustment isn't there anymore because of wear on the gas knob and valve in the handle.
Far more convenient than an Oxy/Acetyl...
