Victor 8-MFA Heavy Duty Acetylene Heating Nozzle for 300 Series Handles

Heavy-Duty Heating with the Victor 8-MFA

When your fabrication job calls for serious heat—whether you are bending thick steel plate, straightening a warped frame, or preheating a casting before welding—the Victor 8-MFA Heating Nozzle is the tool you reach for. Known in the trade as a "rosebud," this multi-flame tip is designed to dump a massive amount of heat into your workpiece fast, saving you time and ensuring the metal reaches the correct temperature for manipulation.

The 8-MFA is built for the professional welder who relies on Acetylene. It produces a concentrated, high-temperature flame pattern that is ideal for localized heating. The size 8 tip is a beast, pumping out over 117,000 BTUs per hour. Because of this high output, it is critical to ensure you have enough gas supply; you cannot run this tip off a small B-tank or even a single standard cylinder if it's low. You need sufficient acetylene volume to prevent starving the tip, which is why many shops manifold cylinders when running these large heating heads.

Victor has designed this nozzle with a 12-inch length, which is a feature you will appreciate when the radiant heat starts coming off a red-hot workpiece. That extra length keeps your hands and the torch handle cooler, allowing you to work longer and more comfortably. The double O-ring seal ensures a tight, leak-free connection to your 300 Series torch handle, so you don't have to worry about flashbacks or gas leaks at the coupling nut. If you are running a heavy-duty Victor torch, this is the genuine OEM heating tip that ensures your equipment runs at peak performance.

Whether you are in a shipyard, a structural steel shop, or a heavy equipment repair facility, the Victor 8-MFA gives you the power and control you need to bend steel to your will.
