OVERVIEW

High-Performance Harris Style 6290G-2 Gouging Tip

Maximize the efficiency of your oxy-acetylene gouging operations with the Victor Cutskill CS6290G2. This tip is a direct replacement for the Harris 6290G-2 and is engineered to deliver superior control and metal removal rates. Gouging with oxy-fuel is a technique that requires a specialized tip geometry to direct the oxygen stream in a way that washes metal away rather than cutting through it. The CS6290G2 features a specifically designed orifice and preheat arrangement that creates a soft, low-velocity oxygen stream, allowing the operator to control the depth and width of the groove with precision.

Constructed from high-conductivity copper, the CS6290G2 effectively dissipates heat, which is crucial when the tip is working in close proximity to the molten puddle. This thermal management helps prevent pre-ignition and flashback, common issues in heavy gouging applications. The Size 2 specification indicates its suitability for general-purpose gouging, capable of creating grooves of moderate depth and width in a single pass. It is an indispensable tool for welders needing to back-gouge root passes to sound metal or remove temporary attachments without damaging the base material.

The Victor Cutskill series represents a synthesis of value and industrial-grade performance. Each tip undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure concentricity of the gas ports and smoothness of the bore. This attention to detail results in a stable preheat flame and a non-turbulent cutting oxygen stream, which are vital for producing smooth, clean grooves that require minimal secondary cleanup. When paired with a properly adjusted Harris style torch, this tip provides the operator with excellent visibility and control, reducing operator fatigue and increasing throughput.

FAQ

The CS6290G2 is designed for use with Oxygen and Acetylene gas.

Yes, this tip is compatible with all standard Harris style cutting torches and attachments that accept 6290 series tips.

A cutting tip is designed to sever metal completely, while a gouging tip is designed to remove metal from the surface to create a groove without cutting all the way through.

The size '2' refers to the orifice size, which dictates the gas flow and the size of the groove (depth and width) the tip can produce.

No, the 6290G series is specifically for Acetylene. For Propane gouging, you would typically need a 6290-GG style tip.

Use a standard tip cleaner set designed for oxy-fuel tips. Be careful not to enlarge the orifices or damage the seating surface.

No, this is a Victor Cutskill brand part manufactured to be fully compatible with Harris style equipment.

Pressure settings vary by application, but typical starting points for a size 2 gouging tip are often around 7-10 psi for Acetylene and 40-50 psi for Oxygen. Always consult the specific chart for your torch.
