OVERVIEW

Maximize Cutting Efficiency with ESAB Oxweld FG-2 Sleeves

Upgrade your cutting torch setup with the ESAB Oxweld FG-2 External Nozzle, the professional's choice for two-piece alternate fuel gas cutting. When you are out in the field or on the shop floor, you need consumables that can take a beating and keep performing. The FG-2 is built from solid, tough pitch copper, making it incredibly resistant to the high heat and spatter associated with heavy-duty cutting. This isn't just a standard replacement part; it is an upgrade in durability that helps you keep your torch running cooler and longer.

The two-piece nozzle system is the industry standard for efficiency when burning propane, natural gas, or MAPP. The FG-2 serves as the external sleeve, protecting the internal gas distribution spline and shaping the preheat flame. Because the external sleeve takes the brunt of the heat and slag during piercing, it is often the first part to show wear. With the Oxweld system, you can replace just this external FG-2 sleeve without having to discard the potentially still-good internal section, saving you money on consumables over time.

Maintenance is a breeze with the FG-2. Thanks to its deep, parallel preheat ports, you can easily dress the tip face if it gets nicked or covered in spatter. A quick file is often all it takes to restore the nozzle to like-new performance, preventing the turbulence that leads to sloppy cuts. This feature alone can extend the life of your nozzle significantly compared to tapered designs that cannot be filed down. The mirror-smooth internal finish ensures that gas flow remains non-turbulent, giving you that crisp, clean cut face that reduces grinding time later.

Don't let inferior consumables slow down your production. The ESAB Oxweld FG-2 External Nozzle (SKU: 639755) is designed to withstand the toughest industrial environments. It provides the thermal protection your torch needs while delivering the precise flame characteristics required for high-quality cuts. Stock up on these essential sleeves and ensure your oxy-fuel equipment is ready for any challenge.

FAQ

The FG-2 serves as the outer sleeve for a two-piece cutting tip system, shaping the preheat flame and protecting the internal spline.

This nozzle is designed for use with alternate fuel gases such as Propane, Natural Gas, and MAPP, rather than Acetylene.

Solid electrolytic copper provides maximum thermal conductivity, allowing the nozzle to dissipate heat rapidly and withstand severe conditions better than brass or copper alloys.

No, it must be matched with the correct series of Oxweld internal splines designed for the specific fuel gas and cutting thickness required.

Yes, the long parallel preheat passages allow the face of the nozzle to be re-dressed (filed) to remove damage without affecting the flame characteristics.

Two-piece systems allow for the separate replacement of the external sleeve and internal section, reducing overall consumable costs and allowing for optimized gas flow for alternate fuels.

No, this SKU (639755) is for the External Nozzle (sleeve) only. The internal section must be purchased separately.

While one-piece nozzles are standard for acetylene, the FG-2 two-piece design is far more efficient for alternate fuels, providing a more stable preheat flame and better economy.
