Get the job done right with the Victor 0381-1642 SST1001FC Straight Cutting Torch, available now at Welders Supply. This heavy-duty torch is a staple for welders and fabricators who demand reliability and safety in their oxy-fuel equipment. Designed as part of the VanGuard ST1000FC series, this model combines rugged durability with advanced safety features to keep you cutting efficiently and safely all day long.

Built-in Safety for Peace of Mind
Safety is paramount when working with oxy-fuel systems. The SST1001FC features built-in patented flashback arrestors and reverse flow check valves. This means you don't have to worry about adding extra weight or bulk to your torch handle with external arrestors. The streamlined design improves handling and reduces wrist strain, allowing for more precise control during intricate cuts. These integrated features provide immediate protection against dangerous flashbacks and gas cross-flow.

Performance and Versatility
With a cutting capacity of up to 5 inches (using the correct tips), this torch is ready for heavy plate work, structural steel, and scrap cutting. The 17-inch length is the industry standard for general-purpose cutting, offering a good balance between reach and control. The 75-degree head angle is ideal for operators who prefer a slightly angled approach to the workpiece, often reducing fatigue during overhead or vertical cutting. The bottom rear lever placement ensures that the oxygen blast is easily accessible but not in the way of your grip.

Victor Quality You Can Trust
Victor has been a leader in gas equipment for decades, and the 0381-1642 is no exception. It is compatible with any fuel gas—simply swap out the Series 1 cutting tip to match your fuel (Acetylene, Propane, Propylene, etc.). Whether you are in the shop or out in the field, this torch delivers the consistent flame and durable performance you need to stay productive.
