OVERVIEW

ESAB Oxweld 1566 Size 4: Precision Propane & Natural Gas Cutting

Upgrade your machine cutting setup with the ESAB Oxweld 1566 Series Size 4 Cutting Tip, a top-tier consumable designed for welders and fabricators who demand reliability and speed. This nozzle is specifically calibrated for use with alternative fuels—Natural Gas and Propane—offering a cost-effective solution for heavy-duty cutting without compromising on performance. Whether you are running a shape-cutting machine or a straight-line track burner, the 1566 Series delivers the thermal intensity needed to slice through 4-inch steel plate cleanly and efficiently.

The "HS" in the model designation stands for High Speed, and this tip lives up to the name. Capable of maintaining travel speeds between 7 and 13 inches per minute on 4-inch plate, it helps shops maximize their output. The nozzle features a heavy preheat flame pattern, which is essential when using propane or natural gas, as these fuels require more focused heat to initiate the cut compared to acetylene. This ensures that your machine spends less time preheating and more time cutting, improving overall operational efficiency.

Durability and ease of maintenance are built into the design. The two-piece construction—featuring a brass inner member and a copper outer shell—allows for optimal gas mixing and heat dissipation. If the tip becomes clogged from spatter or soot, it can be easily disassembled for thorough cleaning, ensuring consistent flame characteristics over a long service life. Trust in the legacy of Oxweld quality to keep your production lines moving smoothly.

FAQ

This nozzle is designed specifically for use with Natural Gas or Propane. It is not suitable for Acetylene.

The Size 4 nozzle is rated to cut steel up to 4 inches thick.

For optimal performance, use a Cutting Oxygen pressure of approx. 90 PSIG, Preheat Oxygen between 25-55 PSIG, and Fuel Gas pressure between 5-10 PSIG.

This is a two-piece cutting tip, which consists of an inner member and an outer shell, typical for propane/natural gas applications.

The 1566 Series is primarily designed for machine cutting torches. While it physically fits Oxweld machine torches, ensure your equipment is compatible before use.

Since it is a two-piece tip, you can separate the outer shell from the inner member to clean the splines and seating surfaces. Do not use standard wire drills on the splines; use a soft brush or appropriate cleaning solution.

On 4-inch material, this High-Speed (HS) nozzle supports cutting speeds of 7 to 13 inches per minute.

No, this tip is designed for Oxweld style torches. It is not compatible with Victor style torches.
