Oxweld Style 1535-40 Propane Cutting Tip, Chromed Two-Piece

Precision Two-Piece Propane Cutting Tip

Maximize the efficiency of your oxy-fuel cutting setup with this Generic 1535-40 Cutting Tip, designed specifically for Oxweld style torches. This tip utilizes a two-piece construction method, which is the industry standard for optimal performance with Propane and Natural Gas. The inner member contains the splines for the preheat gas mixture, while the outer copper shell protects the assembly and directs the flame. This separation allows for the specific turbulence required to mix propane and oxygen thoroughly for a high-temperature preheat flame.

The "Size 40" designation indicates a specific orifice size tailored for substantial cutting capacities. Operators will appreciate the stability of the flame, even when the torch is moved rapidly or subjected to the blowback common in piercing operations. The tip is fully compatible with standard Oxweld torch heads, including the C-32, C-66, and compatible machine torches, ensuring seamless integration into your existing equipment lineup.

Heat Reflection and Durability

Thermal management is critical in heavy cutting. This tip features a fully chromed exterior finish. Chrome is highly reflective to radiant heat, which helps keep the tip temperature lower during long cuts compared to bare copper tips. A cooler tip is less prone to overheating and flashback. Additionally, the hardness of the chrome plating provides excellent resistance to abrasion and physical damage, ensuring the tip retains its shape and seating surface integrity through rigorous daily use.

Optimized Gas Flow

The internal geometry of the 1535-40 is machined to promote smooth gas flow with minimal turbulence in the cutting oxygen stream. A coherent oxygen stream is vital for achieving straight cuts with minimal kerf width and slag accumulation at the bottom of the cut. By maintaining a tight, columnar cutting stream, this tip allows for faster travel speeds and cleaner finished edges, reducing the need for secondary grinding or machining.
