OVERVIEW

Get Heavy Heating Jobs Done Faster

When you are staring down a 2-inch thick steel plate that needs to be bent, straightened, or preheated for welding, a standard cutting tip isn't going to cut it. You need the "Rosebud." The Victor 1566HS-3/4 Heating Nozzle is the heavy hitter you want in your arsenal when working with MAPP gas or Propylene. This isn't just a tip; it's a flamethrower designed to dump heat into your workpiece fast, saving you time and gas money.

Why choose this 1566HS model? It's built for the abuse of the shop floor. The tip face is recessed, meaning if you accidentally bump it against the plate or get too close to the puddle, you aren't going to mash the orifices closed instantly. It resists clogging from spatter better than flush-face tips. Because it runs on MAPP or FG-2, you don't have to worry about the "1/7th rule" of acetylene withdrawal. You can crank up your regulator pressures (within spec) and get a roaring flame that brings cold steel up to temp in minutes, not hours.

This nozzle fits your standard heavy-duty Victor handle (like the 315FC). It's perfect for structural steel erection, heavy equipment repair, and pipe fabrication where preheating is mandatory to prevent cracking. Stop wasting time with undersized tips. Screw on the 1566HS-3/4, light it up, and watch the metal turn cherry red exactly where you need it. It is an essential tool for any serious fabricator working with alternative fuels.

FAQ

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

No. Using Acetylene with a nozzle designed for MAPP/Propylene can cause dangerous flashbacks and overheating because the internal mixer is not calibrated for Acetylene's flame propagation rate.

It fits Victor Heavy Duty 300 Series handles and compatible aftermarket handles with the same thread pattern.

HS stands for 'High Speed,' referring to the nozzle's ability to deliver high heat transfer rates for rapid preheating.

No, this is a heating nozzle (often called a rosebud) used for preheating, bending, and straightening. It does not have a central oxygen jet for cutting.

You need high-flow regulators capable of supplying the volume of gas this large tip consumes. Standard light-duty regulators may starve the tip, causing backfires.

Use standard tip cleaners suited for the orifice size, but be careful not to enlarge the holes. The recessed face helps keep it clean during use.

MAPP/Propylene allows for higher withdrawal rates from the cylinder, meaning you can use larger tips for more BTU output without the safety risks associated with drawing Acetylene too quickly.
