Oxweld 1567 Series Propane Gouging Nozzle - 1/4 Inch

Efficient Weld Removal with the Oxweld 1567 Gouging Tip

When you need to remove an old weld, dig out a crack, or prepare a plate edge for a J-groove or U-groove, the Oxweld 1567 Gouging Nozzle (1/4 Inch) is your tool of choice. Designed for welders who prefer the economy and availability of Propane or Natural Gas, this tip turns your standard Oxweld cutting torch into a powerful gouging instrument. Forget the noise, dust, and carbon deposits associated with carbon arc gouging; oxy-fuel gouging with the 1567 tip is quieter, cleaner, and often more precise for surface work.

The 1/4-inch size is perfect for general-purpose gouging, allowing you to remove a significant amount of material in a single pass while maintaining control over the groove's depth and width. The tip is bent to help you maintain the correct angle relative to the workpiece, ensuring the molten slag is blown clear of the groove rather than back onto the torch or the operator. This makes it incredibly effective for "washing" pads, removing temporary lifting lugs, or excavating defects in heavy plate.

Using genuine Oxweld consumables ensures that your torch operates safely and efficiently. The seating surfaces of the 1567 nozzle are precision-machined to prevent leaks and backfires, which are critical safety concerns in heavy heating applications. Whether you are working in a shipyard, a structural steel shop, or a heavy equipment repair facility, keeping a 1567 gouging nozzle in your kit expands your capabilities, allowing you to switch from cutting to gouging in minutes without changing your fuel gas setup.

• Clean Grooves: Produces smooth, bright grooves that often require little to no grinding before re-welding.
• Cost Savings: Optimized for Propane, allowing you to save on acetylene costs for heavy removal jobs.
• Versatility: Fits the Oxweld torch handle you likely already own (C-32, C-66, etc.).
• Control: The bent design and 1/4" orifice give you excellent visibility and puddle control.
