Victor 0381-1620 Handheld Cutting Torch
The Victor 0381-1620 is a straight cutting torch designed for handheld oxy-fuel cutting tasks. It suits metal fabrication shops, maintenance crews and automotive specialists who need a reliable tool for severing plate up to 5 in thick.
Upgrade from worn tips or lighter torches
Replace a damaged torch body or a lighter-duty model when cuts exceed the capacity of smaller tips. The jump is worth it when daily work demands the 5 in maximum cutting thickness and compatibility with the extensive 1-series tip range.
Simple hose and tip connection
Installation requires matching the 9/16 in.-18 inlet and B-size hose fittings to existing regulator and hose assemblies. What usually goes wrong is mismatching tip series or overlooking the California Proposition 65 warning on chemical exposure.

Questions about this item
What hose fitting size does the 9/16 in. -18 inlet connection require?
The torch uses a size B hose fitting that matches the 9/16 in. -18 inlet connection for acetylene, natural gas, propane or propylene supply.
How do you correctly install a cutting tip from the compatible 1-101 or 1-118 series onto the 90-degree head?
Seat the tip squarely in the 90-degree head, hand-tighten the nut, then apply a wrench for a final quarter turn so the O-ring seals without distorting the tip orifice.
When should the cutting tip be replaced on a torch rated for 5 in. maximum cutting thickness?
Replace the tip when the preheat flames become uneven, the cut edge turns ragged, or the tip face shows pitting that prevents a clean 5 in. cut.
