TurboTorch PL-4T Proline Swirl Combustion Tip

TurboTorch PL-4T: The Standard for HVAC and Plumbing

Elevate your soldering and brazing capabilities with the TurboTorch 0386-0822 PL-4T Proline Self Lighting Tip. Engineered by Victor Technologies, the TurboTorch brand is synonymous with quality in the air-fuel torch market. The PL-4T is a versatile, all-purpose tip designed to meet the specific needs of welders, plumbers, and HVAC technicians who require precision and speed. At the heart of this tip is the Swirl Combustion technology, which produces a hot, stable flame that resists blowout even in windy conditions, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor applications.

The PL-4T is designed for flexibility and ease of use. It features a quick-disconnect connection that fits securely into TurboTorch Proline handles. This modular design allows you to swap out tips in seconds to match the pipe size you are working on, ensuring you always have the right heat output for the job. The self-lighting feature is a major productivity booster, providing instant ignition at the pull of a trigger. This not only saves time but also increases safety by reducing the need for open flames during startup.

Performance specifications for the PL-4T are impressive, catering to a wide range of pipe sizes. When fueled by MAPP gas, this tip can handle soft solder joints on copper pipe from 1/4 inch up to 2-1/2 inches, and silver braze joints up to 1-1/4 inches. With Propane, it effectively solders up to 1-1/2 inches and brazes up to 3/4 inch. This range covers the vast majority of residential and light commercial tubing requirements, making the PL-4T a true workhorse tip.

Maintenance and longevity are also key considerations. The PL-4T features a replaceable tip end (part number PL-4TE), allowing you to extend the life of the tool without purchasing a complete new assembly. The orifice is designed to resist clogging, but is easily accessible for cleaning if necessary. Whether you are installing refrigeration lines, repairing water heaters, or running gas lines, the TurboTorch PL-4T delivers the heat, control, and reliability required for professional-grade results.
