When your job calls for serious heat—whether you are straightening a bent I-beam, preheating a thick casting before welding, or priming heavy steel plate—the Victor 0311-0230 Type 55 Heating Head is the tool you reach for. This isn't your standard cutting torch attachment; it is a dedicated "rosebud" style multi-flame heating nozzle designed to pour BTUs into your workpiece efficiently and rapidly. Built for the heavy industrial welder, this Size 10 head moves away from Acetylene, utilizing more economical and safer alternative fuels like Propane and Natural Gas to generate a large, soaking heat profile.
Safety and Comfort through Design
Heating large metal structures generates an immense amount of radiant heat. If you've ever felt your gloves smoking while trying to heat a pipe, you'll appreciate the 28-inch length of this assembly. The extended tube keeps you back from the work zone, allowing you to maintain the flame on the target longer without fatigue or risk of burns. The threaded elbow design is rugged and field-serviceable, ensuring that this tool can survive the rough conditions of a shipyard, rail yard, or structural fabrication shop.
Performance Requirements
To get the most out of this beast, you need to feed it right. This head is designed for use with the heavy-duty Victor HD 310C handle. Because it consumes a significant volume of fuel and oxygen to create that massive flame, you must use a 3/8-inch hose (up to 50 feet). Don't try to run this on a standard 1/4-inch line; you'll starve the tip and lose performance. Whether you are using Methane, Propylene, or standard Propane, the Type 55 Size 10 head turns your torch into a furnace on a stick, giving you the power to bend, straighten, and treat the heaviest steel with ease.
