OVERVIEW

Genuine Victor 0311-0486 Type 3-TEN Acetylene Nozzle

Elevate your welding capabilities with the Victor 3-TEN Welding Tip (0311-0486), a staple in the industry for oxy-fuel welding and brazing. This authentic Victor nozzle is part of the Type TEN series, celebrated for its robust construction and exceptional flame characteristics. Designed specifically for use with Acetylene gas, the Size 3 tip is perfectly rated for working on materials with a thickness of 1/8 inch (3.2 mm), bridging the gap between light sheet metal work and heavier structural welding. It is the go-to choice for welders who demand precision and reliability in their daily operations.

The 3-TEN tip features a swaged, one-piece copper construction. This design choice is not merely aesthetic; it is functional engineering at its best. The copper alloy provides excellent thermal conductivity, keeping the tip cooler for longer periods and reducing the likelihood of flashbacks or tip deformation. The swaged interior ensures a laminar flow of gases, producing a focused, long cone flame that allows for precise heat application. This level of control is essential for intricate brazing tasks or when welding critical joints where heat input must be carefully managed.

Designed for versatility, the 0311-0486 fits all Victor 300 Series torch handles. This compatibility allows users to easily swap tips based on the job requirements without changing the entire torch setup. The threaded connection is robust and secure, designed to withstand the rigors of daily shop use. Whether you are working in an HVAC environment, an automotive repair shop, or an industrial fabrication plant, the reliability of the Victor connection system ensures safety and efficiency.

Investing in the Victor 3-TEN tip means investing in quality. Cheap imitations often suffer from irregular flame patterns and poor durability, leading to frustration and wasted materials. The Victor 0311-0486 delivers consistent performance, start after start. Its resistance to wear and ease of cleaning means it stays in service longer, providing better value over time. Equip your torch with the 3-TEN tip to experience the smooth, controlled welding arc that has made Victor a leader in gas equipment for decades.

FAQ

The Victor 0311-0486 3-TEN tip is designed to fit Victor 300 Series torch handles and compatible attachments.

The Size 3 tip is rated for welding metal with a thickness of approximately 1/8 inch (3.2 mm).

No, the Type TEN series tips are designed specifically for use with Acetylene gas. Using other fuel gases requires different tip designs.

The Victor 3-TEN is a one-piece copper alloy tip, which provides excellent durability and heat resistance.

While specific settings can vary by application, typical settings for a Size 3 tip are approximately 5-10 PSIG for both Oxygen and Acetylene.

The tip should be cleaned using a standard tip cleaner set. Select the wire size that fits the orifice snugly without forcing it to remove carbon buildup.

No, the 3-TEN is a swaged tip where the mixing usually occurs in the torch handle or a separate mixer assembly depending on the specific torch setup, but the tip itself is just the nozzle.
