OVERVIEW

Victor CutSkill CS2616: The Reliable Airco Style Replacement

Upgrade your cutting setup with the Victor CutSkill CS2616, a high-performance cutting tip designed to replace the standard Airco 261-6. This tip is built for welders and fabricators who rely on Propane or Natural Gas for their cutting processes. By leveraging the specific combustion characteristics of these alternate fuels, the CS2616 delivers clean, smooth cuts on heavy steel sections while offering significant cost savings over acetylene operations.

Engineered for Thick Plate

When the job calls for cutting through substantial material, the CS2616 delivers. With a Size 6 orifice, this tip is rated for cutting thicknesses generally between 6 and 8 inches. This capacity is essential for heavy industrial environments, such as shipyards, rail repair, and heavy equipment manufacturing. The tip produces a massive oxygen stream capable of piercing and severing thick carbon steel with authority, ensuring that your projects proceed without delay.

Superior Durability and Flame Stability

The CS2616 features a rugged two-piece design. The heavy-wall copper outer sleeve withstands the radiant heat reflected from the workpiece, which is particularly intense when cutting thick plate. Inside, the brass insert manages gas distribution to create a stable, high-intensity preheat ring. This design prevents the flame from blowing out during operation (

FAQ

The CS2616 is designed for use with alternate fuels, specifically Propane and Natural Gas. It is not suitable for Acetylene.

This tip fits Airco style cutting torches and attachments that accept the 261 series tips.

A size 6 tip in this series is typically rated for cutting steel thicknesses between 6 inches and 8 inches.

This is a two-piece tip, consisting of a brass inner member and a copper outer shell, which is standard for propane/natural gas tips.

While it produces a flame, it is a cutting tip designed for a concentrated oxygen stream. For general heating, a dedicated heating nozzle is recommended.

Because it is a two-piece tip, you can separate the outer shell from the inner member to clean the splines and remove spatter. Standard tip cleaners can be used carefully on the orifices.

Propane is often preferred for thick cutting because it is more economical and the tips (like the CS2616) are designed to prevent flashback more effectively during the long heat soak required for thick plate.
