OVERVIEW

Reliable Cutting Power for Every Job

When you are out in the field or deep in the scrap yard, you need a torch that works as hard as you do. The PW1600 21-Inch Victor Style Cutting Torch is your go-to solution for heavy-duty cutting tasks. Whether you are slicing through structural steel, dismantling old machinery, or prepping plate for welding, this straight torch delivers the heat and power you need. Its 21-inch length is the perfect balance—long enough to keep the heat away from your gloves and face, but short enough to maintain excellent control and maneuverability in tight spaces.

One of the biggest advantages of this torch is its compatibility. Because it is built to the Victor style standard, you don't have to hunt for specialized consumables. It takes standard Series 1 cutting tips (like the 1-101 for acetylene or 1-GPN for propane) which are available at virtually every welding supply store in the country. This means if you run out of tips in the middle of a job, you can find replacements locally without downtime. The torch is also designed for comfort; the ribbed brass handle gives you a solid grip even when your hands are sweaty or greasy, and the smooth lever action makes initiating the cut clean and easy.

Safety and durability are built right in. The stainless steel tubes resist corrosion and bending, ensuring your torch stays straight and true even after riding around in the back of a truck. The tip-mix design is inherently safer than older styles, keeping the volatile gas mixture outside of the handle and in the tip where it belongs. Whether you are running acetylene for fast preheats or propane for economical scrap cutting, the PW1600 adapts to your fuel of choice. Upgrade your rig with a torch that combines professional performance with the rugged reliability required by modern welders and fabricators.

FAQ

The PW1600 is compatible with Victor Series 1 cutting tips. Common examples include the 1-101 series for Acetylene and the 1-GPN or 1-GPP series for Propane and Natural Gas.

Yes, this torch is a tip-mix design, meaning it can safely use Propane, Propylene, or Natural Gas as long as you install the correct cutting tip designed for that specific fuel gas.

The torch features standard "B" size fittings, which are 9/16"-18 threads. The oxygen connection is right-hand thread, and the fuel connection is left-hand thread (indicated by a notch on the nut).

No, the PW1600 is sold as the torch body only. It is highly recommended to install external flashback arrestors at the torch inlet or regulator for safety.

With the proper high-capacity tips (such as a size 8) and adequate gas supply, this torch is capable of cutting steel up to 8 inches thick.

The PW1600 features a standard 90-degree head angle, which is the most common configuration for general purpose straight cutting torches.

The valves should be kept free of oil and grease. If they become stiff, the packing nut can be slightly tightened or the valve stem packing replaced. Do not use oil-based lubricants on oxygen equipment.

A 21-inch torch keeps the operator further from the radiant heat of the cut and sparks, which is safer and more comfortable for prolonged cutting sessions compared to shorter handles.
