OVERVIEW

Reliable Flame for Your 100 Series Torch

If you're running a Victor 100 series torch—that reliable medium-duty workhorse found in shops all over the country—you know that the tip makes the torch. When your old #3 tip gets clogged with spatter or the threads get dinged up, you don't need to reinvent the wheel; you just need a replacement that works. This Victor Style W-1-3 Welding Tip is exactly that. It’s built to screw right into your existing handle and give you that crisp, clean neutral flame you need for laying down smooth beads.

The #3 size is the sweet spot for a lot of general fabrication and repair work. It’s perfect for 1/8-inch steel, giving you enough heat to penetrate without blowing through the metal. Whether you are fixing a bracket, brazing a fitting, or doing some artistic metalwork, this tip gives you the control you need. The copper construction handles the heat well, so you aren't constantly stopping to let the tip cool down. It lights up easy, adjusts smooth, and holds a steady flame even when you're working out of position.

Don't overpay for the brand name stamped on the side when the copper and the hole size are what matter. This generic tip fits tight, seals up without hissing, and gets the job done. Keep a couple in your toolbox so you're never stuck trying to clean out a tip that's past its prime. It’s a solid piece of gear for any welder doing oxy-acetylene work.

FAQ

This tip is designed to fit Victor 100 Series torch handles and compatible Victor-style medium-duty handles.

A size #3 welding tip is generally rated for welding steel approximately 1/8 inch (3.2mm) thick.

No, the W-1 series tips are specifically designed for Oxy-Acetylene gas. Using propane requires a different tip design (typically a two-piece tip) to maintain the flame.

The W-1 style is a nozzle that typically relies on the mixer integrated into the torch handle or a separate mixer assembly depending on the specific handle model, but the tip itself is a single piece.

Use a standard tip cleaner set. Find the wire size that fits the #3 orifice snugly but without forcing it, and file gently to remove carbon buildup or spatter.

No, this is a high-quality generic replacement part manufactured to Victor specifications ('Victor Style').

For a #3 tip, a common starting point is approximately 3-5 PSI for both Oxygen and Acetylene, though you should always consult your specific torch manual.

Yes, a #3 tip is excellent for brazing applications on materials of appropriate thickness.
