OVERVIEW

Victor 1-3-GPN-CS Propane Cutting Tip: Precision and Durability

Maximize the performance of your oxy-fuel cutting outfit with the Victor 1-3-GPN-CS Cutting Tip. Designed for professional welders and fabricators who prefer the economy and availability of Propane or Natural Gas, this tip represents the gold standard in alternative fuel cutting technology. The "GPN" designation stands for General Purpose Natural gas (and propane), indicating that this consumable is tuned to handle the specific flow and combustion characteristics of these gases. With a Size 1 orifice, this tip is perfectly calibrated for cutting steel plate up to 3/4 inch thick, a common requirement in heavy equipment repair, construction, and metalworking shops.

Why Choose Victor GPN Tips?

Victor's reputation for quality is evident in the engineering of this tip. Unlike single-piece acetylene tips, the GPN series utilizes a two-piece design. This consists of a brass inner member with machined splines and a durable copper outer sleeve. This configuration is critical for alternative fuels because it creates a recessed tip end that anchors the flame, preventing it from blowing off even when running at the higher preheat pressures often required for propane. The heavy copper shell also dissipates heat rapidly, keeping the tip cooler during prolonged cuts and reducing the risk of flashback.

Maintenance and Longevity

One of the standout features of the 1-3-GPN is its ease of maintenance. In harsh industrial environments, tips can easily become clogged with slag or soot. The separable design allows you to slide the inner member out of the shell, making it simple to clean the gas passages with a wire brush or chemical cleaner. This maintainability means you buy fewer tips over time, lowering your overall operating costs. Whether you are cutting scrap, beveling plate for welding, or performing demolition work, the Victor 0387-0184 provides the consistent, high-velocity oxygen stream needed for smooth, slag-free cuts.

FAQ

This tip is designed specifically for use with Propane or Natural Gas. It is not suitable for Acetylene.

The Size 1 tip is rated to cut metal thicknesses of approximately 3/4 inch (19mm).

It fits Victor 300 Series heavy-duty cutting attachments and straight torches. It does not fit the smaller Victor J-Series or CutSkill medium-duty torches.

It is a two-piece tip, featuring a brass inner spline and a copper outer shell, which is standard for propane/natural gas tips.

No, the 1-3-GPN is a cutting tip. For gouging applications, you would need a GPN-style gouging tip specifically designed for that process.

Because it is a two-piece tip, you can separate the inner and outer parts to clean the splines and seating surfaces. Standard tip cleaners can be used for the orifice.

The 'CS' suffix stands for Clamshell, indicating the retail packaging type used for this product.

For a Size 1 tip cutting 3/4" steel, the recommended cutting oxygen pressure is typically between 30 and 35 PSI, though you should consult the specific Victor cut charts for precise settings.
