OVERVIEW

Remove Welds Efficiently with the Victor CutSkill 1-1566 Gouging Tip

When you need to remove a defective weld, prepare a plate edge for welding, or dig out a crack, the Victor CutSkill CS15661 (Style 1566-1) Gouging Nozzle is your go-to tool. Designed for use with Acetylene, this tip delivers the intense preheat and controlled oxygen stream needed to "wash" metal away smoothly rather than cutting through it like a standard tip. The Size 1 orifice is perfect for general-purpose gouging, giving you control over the depth and width of the groove.

This nozzle fits standard Oxweld-style hand and machine torches, making it a versatile addition to your kit if you run Oxweld equipment. Whether you are back-gouging a root pass or removing old brackets, the bent design allows for the proper angle of attack, keeping your hand clear of the molten spray while maintaining visibility of the work area. Trust Victor's CutSkill quality for consistent ignition and a stable flame that won't sputter when you need it most.

Key Benefits:

  • Clean Grooves: Produces smooth, U-shaped grooves that require minimal grinding before re-welding.
  • Durable: Resists slag adherence and withstands the high reflected heat of gouging operations.
  • Easy Fit: Drops right into your existing Oxweld C-series torches without adapters.
  • Versatile: Suitable for a wide range of gouging depths depending on travel speed and oxygen pressure.

Upgrade your torch kit with this essential gouging accessory and experience the difference a high-quality tip makes in your metal preparation workflow.
