OVERVIEW

Smith MC12-1: Reliable Cuts for Professional Welders

Achieve clean and consistent cuts with the Smith MC12-1 Acetylene Cutting Tip. Specifically designed for medium-duty torches, this Size 1 tip is the go-to choice for professionals needing to slice through steel plate up to 5/8 inch thick. Whether you are repairing agricultural equipment, working on HVAC systems, or performing general metal fabrication, the MC12-1 delivers the heat and precision required to get the job done right.

The MC12-1 is built to withstand the rigors of the workshop. Its concave tip end design serves as a protective guard, preventing damage to the gas orifices if the torch is accidentally bumped against the workpiece. This attention to durability ensures that your flame remains consistent over time, reducing the need for frequent replacements. The tip's copper body resists slag build-up, allowing for faster starts and smoother travel speeds, which translates to increased productivity and less time spent on post-cut grinding.

Easy Installation and Compatibility

Forget about searching for a wrench every time you need to change a tip. The Smith MC12-1 features a convenient slip-in design that secures with a simple hand-tighten nut. This ensures a leak-proof seal and allows for rapid changeovers between different tip sizes. This tip is fully compatible with a wide range of Smith medium-duty cutting attachments, including the popular MC505 and MC509 series, as well as the DG109A and AC309. Invest in genuine Smith consumables to maintain the performance and safety of your oxy-acetylene equipment.

Key Benefits:

  • Clean Cuts: Swaged copper passages reduce turbulence for precise cutting streams.
  • Enhanced Safety: In-tip mixing isolates combustible gases for safer operation.
  • Durability: Recessed seats and concave end protect critical sealing surfaces.
  • Versatility: Ideal for 1/2" to 5/8" steel, covering most common medium-duty tasks.

FAQ

The Smith MC12-1 tip has a cutting capacity of approximately 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch (13mm to 16mm) thick metal.

This tip is designed exclusively for use with Acetylene gas. It should not be used with Propane, Natural Gas, or Propylene.

It is compatible with Smith medium-duty cutting attachments, including models DG109A, MC505, MC509, CC509P, and AC309.

No, the MC12 series features a slip-in design that is intended to be hand-tightened to form a positive seal.

For optimal performance, the recommended flow rates are: Cutting Oxygen 75-81 SCFH, Preheat Oxygen 9 SCFH, and Preheat Acetylene 7 SCFH.

In-tip mixing combines the oxygen and fuel gas inside the tip rather than the torch handle. This reduces the volume of mixed gas in the system, significantly lowering the risk of flashback and improving operator safety.

The concave design recesses the exit orifices slightly, protecting them from damage if the tip accidentally contacts the workpiece, which helps maintain a consistent flame pattern.

While it produces a flame, this is a dedicated cutting tip. For heating applications, a specialized heating tip or nozzle is recommended to provide the appropriate heat distribution.
