Purox 4202 Series Acetylene Cutting Tip Size 5

Reliable Cutting Performance with Purox 4202 Size 5

For professional welders and fabricators who demand consistency and durability, the ESAB Purox 4202 Series Cutting Tip (Size 5) is the ideal upgrade for your cutting setup. When you are out in the field or working in the shop, the last thing you want is a nozzle that clogs easily or wears out prematurely. That is why ESAB utilizes solid, hard-drawn copper for these tips. This construction method creates a nozzle that stands up to intense heat and rough handling far better than standard alloy tips, giving you more arc-on time and fewer interruptions for tip changes.

The 4202 Series is designed as a general-purpose workhorse. Whether you are slicing through mild steel plate, cropping structural beams, or preparing pipe for welding, this tip delivers a smooth, clean cut. One of its standout features is the medium preheat capability. This provides just the right amount of heat to start cuts quickly—even on material with slight surface rust or scale—while remaining controlled enough to perform precise bevel cuts for weld preparation. The clean cuts produced by this tip mean you spend less time grinding away slag and more time welding, improving your overall productivity.

Safety and compatibility are paramount when working with oxy-acetylene equipment. The 16K10 Size 5 tip is engineered specifically for Acetylene gas and is guaranteed to fit all Purox style torches. Using genuine consumables ensures a proper seat within the torch head, preventing dangerous leaks and flashbacks. The one-piece design is also easier to clean and maintain compared to two-piece alternatives. Simply use a standard tip cleaner to keep the preheat holes and cutting oxygen bore free of debris. Invest in the ESAB Purox 4202 Series for a cutting experience that combines professional quality, safety, and long-term value.
