CS2451 - Victor Cutskill CS2451 Airco Style 245-1 Propane/Natural Gas Cutting Tip

Reliable Cuts with the Airco Style 245-1 Tip

When you are out on the shop floor or in the field, you need a cutting tip that lights up easy and cuts clean every time. The Victor Cutskill CS2451 is your go-to replacement for Airco Style 245-1 tips, specifically built for guys running Propane or Natural Gas. If you've switched away from acetylene to save money or for safety reasons, you know that standard tips just don't run right with alternate fuels. That's where this 2-piece tip shines. It uses a heavy-duty outer copper sleeve and a splined brass inner part to create a preheat flame that gets your steel hot fast, so you aren't waiting around to hit the oxygen lever.

This Size 1 tip is the workhorse for medium steel plate. It's rated to cut metal anywhere from 3/4 inch up to about 1-1/2 inches thick. That covers a huge chunk of structural work, bracket fabrication, and general demolition jobs. The cut quality you get with a fresh Victor tip means less time grinding off slag and more time welding or fitting. The stream stays tight and straight, giving you a kerf that looks professional. It fits right into your existing Airco style torch, so you don't need any adapters or special rigging—just swap it out, tighten it down, and you are ready to burn.

One of the best things about the 245 style is how tough it is. Because the inner part is tucked back a little bit inside the copper shell, it's harder for popping slag to clog it up when you are piercing a hole. That means the tip lasts longer and you spend less money on consumables over the year. It's perfect for scrap cutting, beam trimming, or any job where you need the heat of propane. Just make sure you keep your seats clean and don't overtighten it in the torch head.

Don't let a worn-out tip ruin your cut or waste your gas. The CS2451 gives you that factory-fresh performance at a price that makes sense. Whether you are running a track burner or a hand torch, this tip helps you keep the sparks flying and the production line moving. It's a solid piece of brass and copper that does exactly what it says on the box: cuts steel clean and fast.
