For welders who appreciate the art of oxy-fuel manipulation, the Detroit Torch DHC 2000 LPG Kit (formerly known as the Henrob or Cobra 2000) is the ultimate tool. This system is legendary in the automotive restoration and aviation communities for its ability to produce TIG-quality welds using a simple gas setup. The secret lies in its proprietary gas mixing technology, which produces a "soft" flame that wraps around the metal rather than punching through it. This allows you to weld aluminum—notoriously difficult with standard gas torches—with exceptional ease and minimal distortion.
The DHC 2000 is often described as a "gas TIG" because of the control it affords. The low-pressure flame (4 PSI) minimizes oxidation and heat input, preserving the base metal's properties. This kit is set up for Propane (LPG), which burns cleaner and is often more accessible than acetylene. With the included #0 and #1 tips, you can tackle everything from delicate body panels to structural brackets. The torch's ability to weld cast iron and stainless steel further expands your fabrication capabilities, making it a must-have for custom car builders and metal shapers.
Beyond welding, the DHC 2000 is a formidable cutting tool. The kit includes a specialized copper cutting tip that leverages the torch's concentrated heat to slice through steel with a narrow kerf, similar to a plasma cutter. To assist with precision, the kit comes with both Overcutter and Undercutter guide attachments. These wheeled guides allow you to trace patterns or follow straight lines effortlessly, maintaining the perfect tip-to-work distance. Experience the control of the pistol-grip design and rediscover the versatility of oxy-fuel welding with this premium Detroit Torch kit.
