OVERVIEW

High-Velocity Swirl Combustion for Professional Heating

The TurboTorch 0386-0150 T-2 Tip represents the industry standard for air-fuel manual torches, specifically engineered to maximize the thermal potential of Propane and MAPP gases. This replacement tip is designed for the professional welder, plumber, and HVAC technician who requires a stable, high-intensity flame for soldering and brazing applications. The T-2 size is optimized for general-purpose work, making it a versatile choice for joining copper tubing and fittings.

Advanced Flame Dynamics

The core advantage of the T-2 tip lies in its Swirl Combustion Technology. This design feature significantly improves the combustion efficiency by mixing fuel and air in a turbulent vortex within the tip. The result is a hotter, more stable flame that wraps around the workpiece, ensuring even heat distribution. This "wrap-around" effect is critical when soldering copper pipes, as it draws the solder into the joint via capillary action more effectively than conventional flames. This technology allows the T-2 to achieve high target temperatures rapidly, reducing the time spent on each joint and minimizing the heat-affected zone on sensitive components.

Technical Specifications and Compatibility

The T-2 tip is compatible with TurboTorch Manual Series handles, providing a secure and leak-proof connection. It is rated for use with both Propane and MAPP (propylene) gases, offering flexibility in fuel choice. When used with MAPP gas, the tip produces a higher flame temperature, suitable for faster work or slightly larger diameter tubing. The tip assembly includes a removable orifice screw, facilitating easy cleaning and maintenance to ensure consistent performance over the lifespan of the product. The rugged brass and stainless steel construction resists oxidation and mechanical damage, ensuring longevity even under heavy daily use.

Applications

This tip is specifically calibrated for soft solders and silver brazing alloys commonly used in the trade. It is ideal for:

  • Soft soldering of copper pipes up to 1 inch in diameter.
  • Thawing frozen pipes.
  • General heating applications.
  • Light brazing tasks where precision heat control is required.

By utilizing the TurboTorch T-2, operators gain the benefit of a high-performance flame profile in a cost-effective, manual ignition package.

FAQ

The TurboTorch T-2 tip is designed for use with Propane and MAPP (Propylene) gases.

No, the T-2 is part of the Manual Series and requires an external striker or flint lighter to ignite.

The T-2 tip fits standard TurboTorch Manual Series handles. Check your handle model to ensure it accepts T-series screw-in tips.

Swirl Combustion creates a high-velocity vortex flame that improves heat transfer and wraps around the pipe, allowing for faster soldering compared to standard flames.

Yes, the T-2 tip features a removable orifice screw that can be taken out for cleaning or replacement if it becomes obstructed.

The T-2 size is ideal for general plumbing and HVAC work, specifically for soft soldering copper tubing up to approximately 1 inch in diameter.

While primarily designed for soldering, the T-2 can perform light brazing on small diameter tubing, especially when used with MAPP gas which burns hotter than Propane.

MAPP gas burns hotter than Propane, allowing the T-2 tip to heat the workpiece faster and handle slightly larger diameter pipes effectively.
