OVERVIEW

Reliable Replacement: 261-0 Propane Tip for Airco Torches

Keep your cutting operations running smoothly and affordably with the Generic 261-0 Propane Cutting Tip. If you are running an Airco style torch setup and prefer the economy and availability of propane or natural gas, this is the replacement tip you need. Designed to match the performance of the original Airco 261 series, this tip delivers clean, consistent cuts on steel plate, pipe, and structural beams. It is a direct fit for your existing equipment, meaning you don't need to buy adapters or new torch heads—just swap out your old tip and get back to work.

The Size 0 orifice is perfect for everyday cutting tasks. Whether you are working on 1/4-inch sheet metal or slicing through 1/2-inch brackets, this tip provides the control and heat you need. The two-piece design is the industry standard for propane cutting; the inner brass piece creates the preheat flame while the outer copper shell protects the tip from the intense reflected heat of the cut. This separation ensures that the tip stays cooler longer, reducing the risk of overheating and making it easier to clean if slag accumulates.

Why pay more for the brand name when this high-quality generic alternative gets the job done just as well? Welders and fabricators choose this tip for its balance of price and performance. It seats perfectly in the torch head, providing a safe and secure gas seal. Whether you are in a scrap yard, a repair shop, or on a farm, having a reliable supply of fresh cutting tips is essential for efficiency. Stock up on the Generic 261-0 and ensure you are always ready to make the cut.

Key Benefits:

  • Economical: Lower cost than OEM tips with excellent lifespan.
  • Versatile: Cuts the most common steel thicknesses found in general repair.
  • Propane Ready: Specifically engineered to maximize the heat of propane gas.
  • Perfect Fit: drops right into your Airco torch without hassle.

FAQ

This tip is compatible with all Airco style cutting torches and cutting attachments that accept 261 series tips.

No, the 261 series is designed specifically for Propane or Natural Gas. For Acetylene, you would typically need a 144 series tip (one-piece).

A Size 0 tip is generally rated to cut steel thicknesses between 1/4 inch and 1/2 inch.

Propane burns slower than acetylene. The two-piece design (brass inner, copper outer) creates a recessed spline that anchors the flame and allows for proper preheat combustion.

You must ensure your torch is equipped with a universal or propane-compatible mixer (injector or low-pressure injector) if required by your specific torch model, though many Airco style torches use the tip to mix the gases.

Since it is a two-piece tip, you can separate the outer shell from the inner spline to clean out slag. Do not use standard wire tip cleaners on the splines as it may damage the gas passages; use a soft brush or chemical cleaner.

No, this is a high-quality generic aftermarket replacement part manufactured to meet or exceed OEM specifications.

Pressure settings vary by thickness, but for a Size 0 tip, typical settings are Oxygen: 30-35 PSI and Propane: 3-5 PSI. Always consult your torch manufacturer's chart.
