OVERVIEW

Get the Job Done with the Smith SC50-2 Propane Tip

If you are running a Smith "Gas Axe" on propane or natural gas, the SC50-2 is the workhorse tip you need in your kit. Designed for heavy-duty cutting, this Size 2 tip is perfect for slicing through 1-inch steel plate like butter. We know that in the real world, steel isn't always clean and shiny. That's why the SC50 series features a Heavy Preheat flame. It throws out enough heat to punch through rust, paint, and dirt without popping or losing the cut, keeping you working instead of relighting your torch.

The SC50-2 uses a smart two-piece design. You have a durable outer copper sleeve and a precision-machined inner brass section. Why does this matter? First, it's optimized for propane, which burns differently than acetylene. Second, if you get slag blowback or clog the tip, you can pull the outer shell off and clean the splines on the inner piece easily. No more fighting with tiny drill bits and ruining the tip face. The fully swaged copper shell is also super smooth, which helps stop spatter from sticking to it in the first place.

Smith Equipment built this tip with your safety in mind. It features their signature In-Tip Mix system. The oxygen and propane don't meet until they are inside the tip. This drastically lowers the chance of a flashback reaching your hands or the tanks. Plus, the tip end is slightly concave (dished in). This simple feature helps keep the flame stable even if you get too close to the plate and protects the holes from getting banged up if you tap the work.

Compatibility Check: This tip fits Smith SC and DG series hand torches and cutting attachments. It seats easily with hand-tight pressure plus a slight wrench snug—don't over-torque it! Whether you are scrapping old machinery or cutting structural beams, the SC50-2 gives you the heat and control you need for a quality cut using economical propane gas.

FAQ

The SC50-2 is designed for use with Propane or Natural Gas. It should not be used with Acetylene.

The Size 2 (SC50-2) tip generally has a cutting range of approximately 1 inch (25mm) to 1-1/4 inch (32mm) thick steel.

No, this tip is designed specifically for Smith Equipment torches (SC and DG series). It will not fit Victor, Harris, or Airco style torches.

You can separate the outer copper shell from the inner brass member. This allows you to easily clean the splines and the inside of the shell without damaging the orifices.

Heavy preheat means the tip has more or larger preheat orifices to generate more heat. This is beneficial for propane (which burns cooler than acetylene) and for cutting dirty, rusty, or painted steel.

That gap is normal for 2-piece propane tips. The preheat gas flows through the splines between the inner and outer pieces, while the cutting oxygen flows through the center bore.

While it produces a flame, it is a cutting tip. For dedicated heating applications, a heating tip is recommended, but the heavy preheat of the SC50 series does allow for some pre-heating capability before cutting.
