998795 - ESAB Size 15 Oxy-Acetylene Rosebud Heating Tip Assembly

Maximize Your Heating Efficiency with the ESAB Size 15 Rosebud

The ESAB 998795 Rosebud Heating Tip Size 15 is an essential tool for welders and fabricators who demand high-performance thermal solutions. This multi-flame heating nozzle is designed to transform your standard heavy-duty oxy-fuel torch into a powerhouse of thermal energy. Optimized for Oxy-Acetylene gas, this tip produces a concentrated yet broad flame pattern that allows for rapid heat transfer into the base metal. This is particularly crucial when working with thick materials where maintaining interpass temperatures or achieving specific preheat levels is mandatory for code-compliant welding.

The "Rosebud" design features multiple flame ports arranged in a circular pattern, which stabilizes the flame and prevents the popping or backfiring often associated with inferior tips. The size #15 rating places this tip in the heavy-duty category, capable of outputting significant BTUs. This makes it the go-to accessory for tasks such as flame straightening, hot forming, and brazing large copper or brass components. The tip's body is machined from solid copper stock, ensuring excellent thermal conductivity and resistance to the harsh environment of field work and shop floors.

Welders Supply provides this genuine ESAB component to ensure your equipment operates at peak safety and efficiency. Using the correct heating tip not only speeds up your workflow but also saves on gas consumption by heating the target area faster than undersized alternatives. Please note that due to the high volume of acetylene required for a size #15 rosebud, operators must ensure their cylinder setup can supply the necessary withdrawal rate (often requiring manifolded cylinders) to prevent solvent withdrawal and ensure safe operation.
