OVERVIEW

Maximize Heat, Minimize Cost: Oxweld 1515-20 Propane Heating Nozzle

When you need to bring the heat to heavy steel, the Oxweld 1515-20 Heating Nozzle is your go-to solution. Designed for fabricators who need serious thermal power, this "rosebud" style tip is engineered to run on Propane or Natural Gas. Why burn through expensive Acetylene for heating jobs when you can get the same heavy-duty results with cheaper fuel? This nozzle allows you to soak large workpieces with heat quickly and efficiently, making it a favorite for structural steel workers, heavy equipment repair techs, and pipefitters.

The Size 20 tip is a beast. It throws a massive, multi-flame cone of fire that is perfect for bending thick bars, straightening warped beams, or preheating massive castings before welding. The wide flame pattern ensures you aren't just heating a pin-point; you are saturating the entire area, which makes bending and forming much smoother and reduces the risk of cracking. Because it is built by Oxweld (an ESAB brand), you know it is tough. The solid copper construction dissipates heat rapidly, keeping the tip cooler and lasting longer even when you are working it hard against a hot plate for hours.

Safety and compatibility are key. The 1515-20 fits your standard heavy-duty Oxweld torches, so you can swap from cutting to heating in seconds. The internal design is resistant to flashbacks and popping, giving you a smooth, quiet roar that lets you focus on the metal. If your shop handles heavy fabrication, bridge work, or large repairs, adding the 65Z14 nozzle to your kit is a no-brainer. It pays for itself in fuel savings alone while delivering the high-performance heating capability you need to get the job done right.

Applications and Use

  • Preheating: Bring heavy plate up to temp before welding to prevent cracking.
  • Straightening: Apply localized heat to correct warping in beams and frames.
  • Bending: Soften steel bars and pipes for easy forming.
  • Shrinking: Use heat shrinking techniques for fitting bearings or correcting dimensions.

FAQ

The Oxweld 1515-20 is designed specifically for use with Propane or Natural Gas. It should not be used with Acetylene.

This nozzle fits standard heavy-duty Oxweld torch handles and cutting attachments, such as the W-48, C-32, C-66, and C-77.

The size number refers to the flow capacity and heat output of the nozzle. Size 20 is a large size intended for heavy heating applications requiring high BTU output.

No, the 1515-20 is a multi-flame heating nozzle (often called a rosebud) designed for heating, bending, and straightening, not for cutting.

Yes, when using alternate fuels like propane with certain torch handles, you must ensure you have the correct injector or mixer installed that is rated for that fuel gas.

Use standard tip cleaners designed for the specific orifice sizes of the nozzle. Ensure the nozzle is cool before cleaning and do not enlarge the holes.

The Oxweld 1515 series is engineered with flow characteristics that resist backfire and flashback, provided proper pressures and purging procedures are followed.

Propane is generally more economical than acetylene and provides a high total heat output (BTU) suitable for heating large masses of metal, even though the flame temperature is slightly lower.
