CS1644 - Victor Cutskill 164-4 Acetylene Cutting Tip for Airco Torches

Reliable Cutting Performance for Airco Torch Users

Upgrade your cutting setup with the Victor Cutskill CS1644 Airco Style 164-4 Cutting Tip, available now at Welders Supply. If you are running an Airco style torch and need a dependable replacement tip that won't break the bank, the Cutskill series is your answer. This specific tip, the 164-4, is a workhorse for medium-to-heavy duty cutting jobs, capable of slicing through steel up to 2-1/2 inches thick with ease. It is designed exclusively for use with Acetylene, the hottest burning fuel gas, providing the intense heat needed for quick piercing and fast travel speeds.

One of the standout features of the CS1644 is its heavy preheat design. In the real world, steel isn't always clean and shiny; rust, scale, and primer can make starting a cut difficult. The heavy preheat flame pattern of this tip helps burn through surface contaminants and brings the steel to its kindling temperature faster than standard tips. This means less frustration for the welder and cleaner cuts right from the start. With a recommended travel speed of 9-13 inches per minute, you can maintain a steady pace that produces a smooth kerf, reducing the time you spend grinding edges later.

The CS1644 is built to last. It features a durable copper construction that withstands the harsh environment of welding and cutting shops. The tip is machined to precise specifications, featuring a drill size 50 cutting orifice. For the best results, set your regulator to 50 PSIG for oxygen and 3 PSIG for acetylene. These settings are optimized to prevent backfires and ensure a stable flame profile. Whether you are cutting structural beams, repairing heavy machinery, or working on a custom fabrication project, this tip provides the control and power you need.

Don't settle for generic, low-quality imports that clog easily or seat poorly in your torch. Victor's Cutskill line offers the assurance of a major brand name known for safety and quality. This tip is a direct fit for all standard Airco style torches compatible with the 164 series. Keep your downtime to a minimum and your cuts clean by stocking up on the Victor Cutskill CS1644. It’s the smart choice for professional welders who demand performance and value.
