OVERVIEW

Maximize Heating Efficiency with Victor Type 55

Upgrade your heavy heating capabilities with the Victor Type 55 Multi-Flame Heating Nozzle. Designed for professional welders and fabricators, this high-capacity nozzle is engineered to harness the power of alternative fuels like propane and natural gas. By utilizing these economical gases, operators can achieve massive heat output for large-scale projects without the withdrawal constraints associated with acetylene cylinders.

The Type 55 features a heavy-duty multi-flame head, commonly referred to as a "rosebud," which distributes heat evenly over a wide surface area. This design is crucial for applications that demand uniform temperature elevation, such as preheating thick castings or steel plates prior to welding. The nozzle connects easily to standard Victor 300 Series handles, making it a versatile addition to any heavy-duty torch kit.

Built for Tough Environments

Constructed from high-quality copper and brass, the Type 55 nozzle is built to endure the rigors of daily industrial use. Its design promotes efficient gas mixing and flow, resisting overheating even during prolonged heating cycles. Whether you are bending structural beams, removing seized heavy machinery parts, or performing stress relief on welded assemblies, this nozzle provides the thermal power needed to get the job done quickly.

Key Operational Benefits

  • Cost-Effective Operation: Optimizes the use of lower-cost fuels like propane and natural gas.
  • High Heat Output: Delivers high BTU volumes for rapid heating of thick materials.
  • Versatility: Fits widely available Victor heavy-duty handles, reducing the need for specialized adapters.
  • Safety: Specifically designed for alternative fuels to prevent flashback issues common when using incorrect tips.

Ensure your shop is equipped for heavy heating tasks with the reliable performance of the Victor Type 55 Heating Nozzle.

FAQ

The Type 55 nozzle is designed for use with alternative fuels such as Propane and Natural Gas. It is NOT compatible with Acetylene.

No, you should never use a Type 55 nozzle with Acetylene. Doing so is dangerous and can cause flashbacks or unstable flames. Use a Type 11 nozzle for Acetylene.

This nozzle fits Victor 300 Series heavy-duty torch handles, such as the 315FC and HD 310C.

A 'rosebud' or multi-flame nozzle is used for applying large amounts of heat to a broad area, useful for preheating, bending, and straightening metal.

Yes, when using Propane or Natural Gas, you must use Grade T hoses, as Grade R hoses can be degraded by these fuel gases.

The Type 55 nozzle typically attaches to the torch handle which may require a specific mixer or have one integrated depending on the exact handle model, but generally, it is designed to work with the standard heavy-duty mixers found in 300 series setups.

Propane is more economical and allows for much higher withdrawal rates from cylinders, making it ideal for large heating tips that consume significant fuel volume.

Use a standard tip cleaner set designed for the specific orifice sizes of the multi-flame head to remove carbon buildup and slag.
