Smith Handi-Heet / Silver Smith Air-Acetylene Outfit

Miller Smith Silver Smith / Handi-Heet Torch Outfit

Experience the ultimate in flame control and craftsmanship with the Miller Smith 239-193 Outfit. Often referred to as the "Silver Smith" kit, this air-fuel torch system is the industry standard for jewelers, silversmiths, and hobbyists requiring a soft, concentrated heat source. By utilizing acetylene gas combined with atmospheric air, the torch produces a working temperature of approximately 1700 degrees Fahrenheit, ideal for soldering, heating, and thawing without the intensity or oxidation risks of oxy-fuel flames.

Precision Control for Delicate Work

The outfit features the NE180A handle, a masterpiece of durability and ergonomics. Constructed from nickel-plated brass, it offers a substantial feel and rugged durability that plastic handles cannot match. The needle valve is conveniently located for one-handed operation, allowing for precise flame adjustment while you work. This level of control is essential for applications where overheating can damage the workpiece, such as in jewelry repair or fine metal fabrication.

Effortless Tip Changes

Efficiency is key in any workshop, and the Smith Slip-in tip system maximizes productivity. The NE180-00 tip included in this package installs in seconds—simply push it in and tighten the nut by hand. No tools are required. The seating mechanism ensures a perfect gas seal, and the ability to rotate the tip while the flame is lit adds a layer of versatility not found in fixed-tip torches. The tip's jeweled orifice produces a soft, stable flame that resists blowing out, providing the consistency needed for high-quality brazing and soldering.

Industrial Grade Components

Safety and reliability are paramount in gas equipment. The 239-193 outfit includes a robust acetylene regulator (CGA 520) specifically calibrated for this torch system, ensuring safe pressure delivery from standard 40 cu ft "B" tanks. The 12.5-foot hose offers ample reach for bench work or on-site repairs. With the backing of Miller Electric's True Blue warranty and the legacy of Smith Equipment's engineering, this outfit represents a long-term investment in quality. It is an excellent choice for anyone needing a dedicated air-acetylene setup for silver soldering, light brazing, or general heating applications.
