0381-1647 - Victor ST1050FC 48-Inch Heavy Duty Straight Torch

Extended Reach for Tough Jobs

When the heat is high and the metal is thick, you need a torch that puts distance between you and the work. The Victor ST1050FC (0381-1647) is a 48-inch straight cutting torch built for welders and fabricators who demand reach and reliability. Perfect for scrap yards, demolition crews, and heavy equipment repair, this torch allows you to cut through up to 5 inches of steel while standing safely back from the hazard zone. The 90-degree head angle provides the classic orientation needed for efficient downward cutting on plates and beams.

Built-In Safety, Less Bulk

Forget about screwing on extra flashback arrestors that throw off the balance of your torch. The ST1050FC features Victor's patented built-in flashback arrestors and reverse flow check valves. These integrated safety features protect you from dangerous gas backups and flashbacks without adding extra weight or length to the handle. This means you get a streamlined, balanced tool that is easier to maneuver and less tiring to hold during long shifts.

Victor Reliability

As part of the ST1000FC series, this torch represents the gold standard in oxy-fuel equipment. It features a bottom rear lever design that feels natural in the hand, giving you precise control over the oxygen stream. The torch is compatible with standard Victor Series 1 cutting tips, giving you the flexibility to use Acetylene, Propane, or Natural Gas depending on your shop's setup. Invest in a tool that works as hard as you do—the Victor ST1050FC delivers professional cuts with the durability you expect from the industry leader.
