OVERVIEW

Reliable Replacement for TurboTorch Users

Upgrade your torch kit with the Uniweld UNIT-5 Twister Tip, a robust #5 tip designed to fit your existing TurboTorch handles. If you are looking for a reliable, high-heat solution for soldering and brazing, this tip delivers. The "Twister" name comes from the specialized air-fuel mixing technology inside the tip, which spins the flame. This swirling action helps the flame wrap around pipes, heating the entire joint faster than standard pencil-flame tips. This means you spend less time heating and more time moving on to the next joint.

The UNIT-5 is specifically calibrated for Liquid Propane (LP) and MAP//Pro gases. It is an ideal size (#5) for a wide range of copper pipe sizes commonly found in residential and light commercial applications. The stainless steel burn tube resists corrosion and heat damage, ensuring that the tip lasts through hundreds of jobs. It connects easily to your torch handle, providing a secure, leak-free seal for safe operation.

Welders and plumbers appreciate the consistency of the Uniweld flame. It provides a hot, stable target that melts solder and brazing alloy smoothly. Because it fits the popular TurboTorch style handles, you don't need to buy a whole new torch setup to enjoy the benefits of Uniweld's combustion technology. Simply swap out your old or clogged tip with the UNIT-5 and experience renewed performance. It's an essential spare part for any service truck, ensuring you are never stuck on a job with a malfunctioning torch.

The swirl flame technology creates a vortex that wraps around the pipe, providing better heat transfer and faster brazing times compared to a standard pencil flame.

The tip features a removable orifice screw. You can remove this screw to access the internal components and clean out any debris or carbon buildup.

A #5 tip is generally suitable for soft soldering up to 1-1/2" and silver brazing up to 3/4" copper tubing, though this can vary based on the specific gas used.

Yes, the UNIT-5 is made with a stainless steel burn tube and brass connection points, making it highly durable and resistant to the high temperatures of daily brazing.
