OVERVIEW

Reliable Flame Control for Every Job

When you are in the middle of a fabrication project or a critical repair, the last thing you need is a sputtering torch. The Victor Style ET-2 Welding Tip is the reliable workhorse you need for your medium-duty torch setup. Designed to fit perfectly with Victor 100 Series handles (and compatible J-Series models), this Size 2 tip is the go-to choice for welders handling light-to-medium gauge steel. Whether you are fixing a fender, brazing copper piping for an HVAC install, or working on artistic metal sculptures, this tip delivers the smooth, consistent flame you rely on.

The ET-2 is built from solid copper, which isn't just about durability—it's about performance. Copper sheds heat quickly, keeping the tip cooler and reducing the risk of popping or backfiring when you are working in tight corners or reflecting heat. The Size 2 opening is perfect for those jobs where a Size 0 is too cold and a Size 4 is blowing holes through your work. It sits right in the sweet spot for metal thicknesses around 1/32" to 5/64", giving you enough heat to establish a puddle quickly without losing control. The long, tapered design also improves visibility, allowing you to see exactly where you are directing the heat and filler rod.

Swapping out tips is quick and hassle-free. The base of the ET-2 features double O-rings that seat firmly into your torch handle, creating a leak-proof seal by hand-tightening. No need to wrestle with wrenches that might damage the soft copper; just twist it in, check your gas flow, and light up. This tip is designed for oxy-acetylene gas, the standard for versatile welding and cutting, providing the high temperature needed for fusion welding steel. It is also excellent for brazing applications where temperature control is key to flowing the alloy without overheating the base metal.

Don't let worn-out consumables compromise your weld quality. A bell-mouthed or clogged tip leads to an erratic flame that makes good welding impossible. Keeping a fresh ET-2 tip in your kit ensures you are always ready to lay down smooth beads or make precise braze joints. It is an affordable, essential upgrade for any welder running a Victor-style medium-duty rig, delivering professional results every time you spark the striker.

FAQ

The ET-2 welding tip is designed to fit Victor 100 Series torch handles, J-Series handles (like J-28, J-40), and other medium-duty handles that accept Victor-style welding nozzles.

A Size 2 welding tip is typically suitable for welding metal thicknesses ranging from approximately 1/32 inch to 5/64 inch, depending on the specific joint configuration and welder technique.

The ET-2 tip is primarily designed for Oxy-Acetylene gas. While it may physically function with propane, it will not produce the optimal flame characteristics or heat concentration required for welding. Propane typically requires recessed tips designed specifically for alternate fuels.

The ET-2 style tip is often a one-piece nozzle that seats into the torch handle's mixer assembly or has an integral mixing design depending on the specific aftermarket manufacturer. For Victor 100 series, it generally screws into the nozzle assembly which attaches to the handle.

You should use a standard tip cleaner set. Select the wire size that fits the orifice snugly without forcing it, and gently file away carbon deposits to restore the flame shape. Avoid using drill bits which can enlarge the opening.

Popping or backfiring can be caused by a dirty tip, a loose connection, or the tip overheating. Ensure the tip is clean, the O-rings are in good condition, and the connection to the handle is secure. Also, check that your gas pressures are set correctly for a Size 2 tip.

No, the ET-2 is a welding and brazing tip. It has a single orifice for the flame. Cutting requires a cutting attachment and a cutting tip (like a 3-101 series) which has a central oxygen jet and preheat holes.

The ET-2 tip is manufactured from high-quality copper. Copper is used because of its excellent thermal conductivity, which helps keep the tip cool during operation and extends its lifespan.
