Uniweld 8-Inch Pro-Tip Torch Extension Tube

Uniweld PT-103: Precision Reach for Professional Brazing

The Uniweld PT-103 Pro-Tip Extension is a specialized accessory engineered to enhance the versatility of your oxy-fuel and air-fuel torch equipment. When standard torch configurations fall short of reaching pipes tucked behind units, inside walls, or within crowded mechanical rooms, this 8-inch extension provides the necessary length to get the job done efficiently. Manufactured by Uniweld, a leader in American-made welding and HVAC tools, the PT-103 represents reliability and precision for the serious tradesperson.

Seamless Compatibility and Performance

This extension is designed to fit the Uniweld Pro-Tip series, a popular choice among HVAC/R professionals for its efficient swirl combustion technology. The PT-103 sits between the torch handle and the quick-connect or screw-in tip, extending the gas path without compromising flow velocity. It is optimized for LPG (Propane) and MAPP gas, ensuring that the fuel mixture reaches the tip with the correct pressure to maintain a high-intensity flame. Whether you are soft soldering large diameter tubing or brazing with silver solder, this extension helps maintain the heat transfer required for capillary action.

Rugged Stainless Steel Design

Tools in the welding and industrial MRO sector must withstand harsh environments. The PT-103 is fabricated from robust stainless steel, which provides excellent structural integrity even under high thermal stress. The tubing is rigid, preventing bending or kinking that could obstruct gas flow. Its corrosion-resistant finish ensures that the threads remain clean and the body remains intact, even after years of exposure to flux fumes and job site moisture. The sleek design also allows for easy cleaning and storage in your tool bag or torch kit.

Why Choose a Torch Extension?

Using an extension like the PT-103 is not just about reach; it is about control. By positioning the flame further from the handle, you gain a better line of sight to the workpiece, allowing for more accurate heat application around the backside of pipes. It also protects the torch handle components (O-rings and valves) from excessive heat feedback, prolonging the life of your primary equipment. For any welder or technician working with propane torches, the Uniweld PT-103 is a low-cost investment that pays dividends in safety, comfort, and work quality.
