0333-0414 - Victor 3-GTB Propylene Gouging Tip, Bent Style, Size 3

Victor 0333-0414 Propylene Gouging Tip - Size 3

Maximize your machine torch capabilities with the Victor 3-GTB Bent Gouging Tip (SKU: 0333-0414). Designed specifically for use with Propylene fuel gas, this tip delivers a focused, high-velocity preheat and cutting oxygen stream ideal for gouging operations. Gouging is a critical process in welding preparation and rework, allowing operators to remove unwanted metal or defective welds without destroying the base material. The 3-GTB excels in this role, offering a controlled groove profile on mild steel plates and structures.

The "Bent" aspect of the GTB series is a key feature for automated or semi-automated processes. Standard straight tips can sometimes limit the approach angle of a machine torch, but the bent design of the 0333-0414 allows for a more natural gouging angle, facilitating better slag ejection and visibility. This specific model, Size 3, is rated for gouging depths and applications on metal thicknesses between 1/4" and 3/4". It is a robust solution for structural steel fabrication, tank manufacturing, and general heavy industrial repairs.

Victor's commitment to quality is evident in the manufacturing of this tip. It features a durable brass and copper construction that resists heat deformation and wear. The two-piece design is tailored for Propylene, ensuring that the preheat flame is stable and hot enough to bring the steel to ignition temperature quickly. Recommended settings include a fuel pressure of 8-10 PSIG and appropriate oxygen pressures (typically 30-65 PSIG for cutting/gouging streams) to achieve optimal performance. When precision and durability matter in your gouging operations, trust the Victor 3-GTB to deliver consistent performance.
