OVERVIEW

Massive Heat for Big Jobs

When you need to heat up heavy steel fast, the Uniweld 2290-5H Harris Style Heating Head is the tool for the job. Often referred to as a "rosebud," this multi-flame tip is a powerhouse, designed to pump out up to 1,000,000 BTUs of heat per hour. Whether you are preheating a casting before welding, bending a thick I-beam, or shrinking a fitting, this tip delivers the soaking heat you need to get the metal moving.

Designed for use with Propane or Natural Gas, this tip helps you save money on fuel costs compared to acetylene, without sacrificing the total heat input required for large applications. The #5 size is one of the larger tips in the series, meaning it consumes a significant amount of oxygen and fuel. To keep this beast fed, make sure your regulator settings are correct and you are running 3/8" hoses. Standard 1/4" hoses often restrict flow too much for a tip of this magnitude.

This tip features a durable copper construction that resists spatter adhesion and dissipates heat effectively to protect the tip end. It screws directly onto standard Harris-style heating elbows (like the 2310, 2316, or 2328), making it a perfect drop-in replacement for your existing heavy-duty torch setup. Don't let cold metal slow you down; grab a Uniweld 2290-5H and turn up the heat.

  • Economical: Uses cheaper propane/natural gas.
  • Powerful: Up to 1 million BTU/hr output.
  • Durable: Solid copper design for long life.

FAQ

No, the 2290-5H is designed specifically for Propane or Natural Gas. Using Acetylene with this tip can be dangerous and cause flashbacks or overheating.

It is highly recommended to use 3/8-inch Grade T hose. Smaller 1/4-inch hoses may restrict gas flow, leading to poor performance or safety issues due to the high volume of gas required.

This tip fits Uniweld and Harris style tip elbows, specifically models 2310, 2316, and 2328.

The #5 size (2290-5H) produces between 450,000 and 1,000,000 BTU per hour, depending on pressure settings.

No, this is a Uniweld brand part manufactured to Harris style specifications. It is a direct replacement for the Harris 2290-5H.

You need high-flow regulators capable of supplying the necessary volume of oxygen and propane. Standard light-duty regulators may freeze up or fail to supply adequate flow.

It is used for heavy industrial heating, such as preheating welds, bending steel, and straightening structural components.

Use a standard tip cleaner set designed for multi-flame tips. Ensure the orifices are clear of carbon and spatter to maintain a proper flame shape.
