OVERVIEW

Cut Thick Steel with Confidence

When you are staring down a foot-thick slab of steel or a massive piece of scrap, you need a tip that won't quit. The Oxweld 4202 Size 12 Cutting Tip (16K14) is built exactly for that purpose. Designed to run on Propane or Natural Gas, this tip turns your Oxweld torch into a heavy-cutting beast, capable of slicing through 12 inches of material. Unlike standard tips that might overheat or clog when pushed to the limit, the 4202 series uses a two-piece design that stays cooler and cleans up easier.

Why choose the 4202 Size 12? It's all about efficiency and stability. Propane and Natural Gas are cheaper than acetylene, but they require a specific tip design to hold the flame stable. The recessed tip on this nozzle protects the preheat flame, ensuring it stays lit even when you crank up the oxygen pressure for a deep cut. The heavy preheat pattern gets you started faster, reducing the time you spend waiting for the puddle to form on thick plate.

Whether you are working in a scrap yard, a foundry, or a heavy fabrication shop, this tip gives you the reliability Oxweld is famous for. It fits your trusty C-32 or C-66 torch handle, so you don't need special adapters. Just swap it in, set your pressures, and experience a smooth, powerful cut that drops heavy metal efficiently.

Propane is generally more cost-effective for thick cutting and, with the correct tip like the 4202, provides excellent heat output and cleaner cuts on heavy sections.

You can separate the outer shell from the inner spline to easily clean out slag or debris. Use a soft wire brush or tip cleaner designed for two-piece tips.
