Smith Airline Series Size 1 Acetylene Brazing Tip

Smith Equipment AW201 Airline Series Welding Tip

Upgrade your Smith Airline torch setup with the AW201 Acetylene Welding Tip, a premium consumable designed for precision and durability. This Size 1 tip is engineered to fit Smith's lightweight AW1A and AW10A torch handles, forming a perfectly balanced tool for operators who need to weld or braze for extended periods without fatigue. The AW201 is part of the renowned AW200 series, known for delivering a consistent, stable flame that professionals trust for critical joins.

The AW201 is specifically calibrated for Acetylene gas, providing the concentrated heat necessary for effective puddle control. It eliminates the frustration of "puddle chasing," allowing for smoother beads and higher-quality welds. With a brazing capacity for 1/4-inch to 3/8-inch O.D. copper pipe, it is particularly well-suited for the HVAC and plumbing industries. The tip's geometry produces a long, defined inner cone, giving the welder excellent visibility and control over the heat input, which is vital when working with thin-walled tubing or delicate sheet metal.

Convenience is built into the design of the AW201. It features Smith's legendary "Slip-in" connection technology. You can say goodbye to searching for a wrench every time you need to switch tip sizes. Simply slide the tip into the torch handle and tighten the nut hand-tight. The integrated graphite and O-ring sealing system ensures a leak-free fit every time, enhancing safety and efficiency. Furthermore, the tip is constructed from heavy-duty copper stock. This material choice is deliberate; it dissipates heat rapidly, keeping the tip cooler even when working in confined spaces where heat reflection is a concern.

Choosing genuine Smith tips like the AW201 ensures your equipment operates at peak performance. The precise machining of the 1/32-inch orifice guarantees a uniform flame shape, free from the sputtering often caused by inferior manufacturing. Whether you are an artist working with metal sculpture, an auto body technician, or a maintenance pro, the Smith AW201 provides the reliability and control needed to produce superior work.
