Professional Grade Victor 0381-1640 Cutting Torch

Equip your workforce with the Victor 0381-1640 SST1000FC, a heavy-duty straight cutting torch designed to meet the demanding needs of professional welders and fabricators. This model is a staple in the industry, known for its robust construction and user-friendly design. With a length of 17 inches and a standard 90-degree head, it provides the ideal geometry for a wide range of cutting tasks, from demolition to precision plate sizing.

Safety is paramount in oxy-fuel cutting, and the SST1000FC excels in this regard. It comes standard with built-in flashback arrestors and reverse flow check valves. By integrating these critical safety components directly into the torch handle, Victor ensures they are always present and functioning, removing the risk of an operator forgetting to install external safety devices. Furthermore, this integration streamlines the torch profile, removing the extra length and weight associated with add-on arrestors, which significantly improves handling and maneuverability in tight spaces.

The 0381-1640 is capable of cutting material up to 5 inches thick, making it suitable for heavy structural steel, pipe cutting, and maintenance repair operations. The cutting oxygen lever is positioned at the bottom rear of the handle, a configuration that many operators find provides superior leverage and comfort. The torch utilizes Victor's standard 1-101 series tips for acetylene or GPN series for propane/natural gas, ensuring that consumables are readily available and easy to source.

Durability is built into every component of the ST1000FC series. The die-forged brass head and stainless steel tubes resist heat and impact, ensuring a long service life even in harsh environments. The threaded connections are precision-machined for leak-free performance. When you choose the Victor SST1000FC, you are investing in a tool that combines traditional durability with modern safety technology, ensuring peak performance for years to come.
