Take the hassle out of your daily soldering and brazing tasks with the TurboTorch PL-5A Extreme Self-Lighting Tip. Designed for the professional plumber and HVAC technician, this tip brings the legendary reliability of the Extreme series to your toolkit. Gone are the days of fumbling for a striker or lighter while trying to hold a pipe in place; the PL-5A features a built-in piezo igniter that lights the flame instantly with the push of a button. This "lighting fast" capability streamlines your workflow, allowing you to move from joint to joint with speed and precision.
At the heart of this tip is TurboTorch’s Swirl Combustion Technology. By swirling the air-acetylene mixture, the tip produces a hotter, more concentrated flame that wraps around copper tubing for even heat distribution. This means you can solder up to 1-1/2 inches and braze up to 3/4 inch copper pipe more efficiently, saving you time and fuel on every job. Whether you are installing refrigeration lines or repairing residential plumbing, the PL-5A delivers the consistent heat you need to ensure leak-free joints.
Durability and ease of maintenance are built right in. The PL-5A is constructed to withstand the rigors of the job site, and it features a replaceable tip end and orifice. If your tip ever gets clogged or worn, you can simply swap out the parts rather than buying a whole new assembly, saving you money in the long run. The tip easily snaps into standard G-4 and PLF-A5 handles, and the red O-ring gives you instant peace of mind that you are using the correct tip for acetylene gas. Backed by a 3-year warranty, the PL-5A is the reliable partner you need for high-quality brazing and soldering.
