Victor Size 10 MFTA Acetylene Heating Nozzle

Maximize Your Heating Efficiency with Victor

For welders and fabricators tackling large-scale metalworking projects, the Victor 10-MFTA Heating Tip (0330-0523) offers the thermal power necessary to get the job done right. This heavy-duty Acetylene heating tip is a "rosebud" style nozzle designed to deliver a massive amount of heat very quickly. It is the ideal tool for preheating thick steel sections to prevent cracking during welding, straightening bent structural members, or performing flame shrinking operations. The multi-flame design produces a broad, intense heat zone that reduces the time spent waiting for materials to reach the critical temperature, thereby increasing overall shop productivity.

The 10-MFTA is built for serious work. It is a Series 1 tip that fits Victor's heavy-duty handles, such as the 315FC and H315FC. Because of its large size (Size 10), it flows a significant amount of gas and is strictly for use with torch handles—it cannot be used with cutting attachments (which typically max out at Size 8). Operators must ensure their regulator settings are dialed in to 12-15 PSIG for Acetylene and 70-80 PSIG for Oxygen to achieve the proper neutral flame. Additionally, the use of 3/8" hose is mandatory to prevent fuel starvation and ensure safety during operation. When you need to apply heat fast and effectively, trust the proven quality of Victor's MFTA series.

Reliable Preheating and Descaling

Beyond simple preheating, this tip is an excellent choice for maintenance and repair operations (MRO). It is highly effective for descaling applications and burning off stubborn paint or contaminants from metal surfaces prior to welding or refinishing. The focused yet broad flame allows for controlled heating, minimizing the risk of localized overheating while ensuring the entire target area is treated. With its robust brass construction and precision-drilled ports, the Victor 0330-0523 stands up to the heat and abuse of the welding environment, providing long-lasting service for professional welders.
