OVERVIEW

Get the Heat You Need with the ESAB 1566HS-1/2

When your job calls for serious heat, the ESAB 1566HS-1/2 Heating Nozzle is the tool you want on your torch. Designed for welders and fabricators who use MAPP gas or FG-2 (Propylene), this "rosebud" style tip pumps out the BTUs required to bend, straighten, and preheat thick metal sections quickly. Forget about waiting around for the metal to soak up heat; the multi-flame configuration of the 1566HS-1/2 blasts a wide, intense heat pattern that gets the job done fast, saving you time and gas money.

This nozzle is built tough for the shop environment. We know that heating tips take a beating—from extreme thermal cycling to the occasional knock against the workpiece. ESAB has constructed this nozzle to withstand the abuse of daily industrial work. The 1/2 size is a versatile middle-ground, offering enough power for heavy structural work while remaining manageable for general fabrication tasks. It's the perfect upgrade for your oxy-fuel setup if you are moving away from acetylene or simply prefer the performance of propylene-based fuels for heating applications.

Using the right tip for your gas is crucial for both safety and performance. The 1566HS-1/2 is specifically calibrated for the burn rates of MAPP and FG-2, giving you a clean, stable flame that won't pop or sputter. Whether you are freeing up a seized nut, preheating a casting before welding, or heat-shrinking a steel assembly, this nozzle gives you the control and power you need. Equip your torch with ESAB quality and feel the difference in your heating operations.

Applications

  • Preheating: Prepare thick plates and castings for welding to prevent cracking.
  • Metal Forming: Heat steel quickly for bending and straightening operations.
  • Maintenance: Apply rapid heat to remove rusted or seized mechanical parts.

FAQ

This nozzle is designed specifically for MAPP gas and FG-2 (Propylene). It is not suitable for Acetylene.

No, using this nozzle with Acetylene can be dangerous and cause flashbacks. Always use the nozzle specified for your fuel gas.

It is a multi-flame heating nozzle used for preheating, straightening, bending, and general heating of metals.

The '1/2' refers to the size or flow capacity of the nozzle, indicating it is a mid-to-large size heating tip suitable for substantial heat output.

No, this is a heating nozzle (often called a rosebud). It is not designed for cutting steel.

Use appropriate tip cleaners designed for the specific orifice sizes of the multi-flame face. Do not use drills that might enlarge the holes.

No, it fits specific ESAB/Victor style heavy-duty handles or attachments compatible with the 1566HS series. Check your torch manual for compatibility.

MAPP and FG-2 are often safer and more stable at high flow rates required for large heating tips, whereas Acetylene has withdrawal rate limitations.
