249-500B - Smith Little Torch Preset Propane Regulator for Disposable Tanks

Ultimate Portability for Your Little Torch

Take your soldering and brazing projects anywhere with the Smith 249-500B Preset Propane Regulator. Designed as the perfect companion for the famous Smith Little Torch, this regulator frees you from the tether of large, heavy industrial gas tanks. It is specifically engineered to mount directly onto the convenient 14.1 oz or 16 oz disposable propane cylinders that are readily available at home improvement centers and hardware stores everywhere. This makes it the ideal solution for HVAC technicians doing field repairs, jewelry artists attending craft shows, or home hobbyists with limited workshop space.

The genius of the 249-500B lies in its "preset" design. There are no knobs to turn or gauges to monitor. Smith Equipment has pre-calibrated the internal mechanism to deliver the exact pressure needed for the fine tips of the Little Torch. This means you simply screw the regulator onto the tank, connect your hose, and you are ready to light up. The consistent pressure ensures a steady, non-pulsing flame, which is critical when working on fine silver, gold, or other delicate metals where temperature control is paramount. The regulator handles the flow dynamics so you can focus entirely on your craft.

Durability is never a question with Smith Equipment products. This regulator features a robust brass construction that stands up to the rigors of daily use. The outlet is equipped with a standard "B" size (9/16"-18 Left Hand) fitting, which is the industry standard for fuel gas hoses in this class. This ensures it will thread perfectly onto your existing Little Torch red fuel hose. The secure connection to the disposable tank is achieved with precision threads that seat firmly, providing a safe operating environment.

Whether you are a professional jeweler needing a backup fuel source, a sculptor working on small-scale metal art, or a maintenance pro who needs a lightweight brazing setup, the Smith 249-500B delivers. It converts a standard disposable tank into a professional-grade fuel station. Stop lugging around heavy BBQ tanks for small jobs and switch to the convenience of the Smith Preset Propane Regulator. It is a genuine Smith replacement part, ensuring you get the quality and safety features that have made the Little Torch a legend in the industry.
