OVERVIEW

Step Up Your Soldering with the TurboTorch X-5B Extreme Kit

For decades, the TurboTorch brand has been synonymous with quality and performance in the welding and HVAC industries. The X-5B Extreme Standard Torch Kit (0386-0338) continues this legacy by offering a complete, ready-to-use solution for air acetylene applications. If you are looking for a torch that delivers consistent heat and stands up to the rigors of daily use, the X-5B is the professional's choice. This kit is specifically designed to work with "B" size acetylene tanks, making it a portable powerhouse for service trucks and job sites where mobility is key.

Extreme Swirl Technology
What sets the X-5B apart is the inclusion of the A-5 tip featuring Extreme Swirl Technology. Unlike standard tips that produce a feathered flame, the Swirl tip generates a concentrated, high-velocity flame that wraps around the workpiece. This results in faster heat-up times and better penetration for solder and braze alloy, ensuring leak-free joints. The efficiency of this technology means you use less gas to get the job done, saving money on refills over time.

Built for Convenience and Safety
The kit features the G-4 handle, a manual lighting handle that feels solid in the hand and offers smooth valve operation. The quick-disconnect system is a favorite among pros, allowing for instant tip changes to accommodate different pipe sizes. Safety is also a priority, with color-coded O-rings that clearly identify the equipment for acetylene use. The 12-foot hose gives you the freedom to move around your workspace without constantly repositioning the tank.

Versatile Applications
From soft soldering 1-1/2" drainage lines to silver brazing 3/4" refrigerant lines, the X-5B handles it all with ease. It is an excellent starter outfit for apprentices yet robust enough for seasoned veterans. The kit includes everything you need to connect to your B-tank and start working immediately: the regulator, hose, handle, and tip. Experience the advantage of a torch system that works as hard as you do.
