Victor HC1131C Bulldog Scrap Cutting Torch 36-Inch 75-Degree Propane

Dominate Scrap Metal with the Victor Bulldog HC1131C

When the job involves tearing down structures, processing heavy scrap, or demolition work, you need a torch that bites back. The Victor 0381-1710 HC1131C, known as the "Bulldog," is the ultimate tool for welders and cutters who demand durability and performance. This 36-inch straight cutting torch is built to handle the roughest environments where standard torches fail. Designed specifically for use with Propane and Natural Gas, it allows you to utilize cheaper, cleaner-burning fuels without sacrificing cutting power.

Built Tough for the Scrap Yard
Scrap cutting is brutal on equipment. Torches get dropped, stepped on, and banged against steel. The Victor Bulldog answers this challenge with a reinforced 3-tube design that offers superior strength compared to standard 2-tube models. This extra rigidity ensures your torch stays straight and safe, shift after shift. The low-profile head is another practical advantage, allowing you to slide the tip into tight webs and corners of I-beams or machinery without getting hung up on bulky head nuts.

Performance That Pays
Time is money in demolition. The HC1131C features a special "supercharged" preheat oxygen valve designed to keep your flame lit even when cutting through layers of rust, paint, and grime. This means less frustration with blow-offs and more time cutting metal. The 75-degree head angle is a favorite among professionals for its comfort during downward cutting operations, reducing wrist strain over long days. The bottom rear cutting lever is positioned for natural engagement, giving you precise control over the oxygen blast.

Safety and Maintenance
Victor has designed the HC1131C for easy field repair and safety. The inlet connections feature integral reverse flow check valves to prevent gas mixing in the hoses, a critical safety feature. The threaded connections make replacing valves or repairing the torch body straightforward, keeping your downtime to a minimum. If you are looking for a high-flow, high-durability propane torch that feels balanced in the hand and stands up to abuse, the Victor Bulldog is the industry standard.
