0387-0172 - Victor 0-GPN Propane/Natural Gas Cutting Tip, Size 0 (0387-0172)

Victor 0-GPN-CS Cutting Tip for Propane & Natural Gas

The Victor 0387-0172 (Model 0-GPN-CS) is a high-performance cutting tip designed specifically for general purpose hand cutting using Propane or Natural Gas. As part of the GPN series, this tip features a robust two-piece construction, consisting of a brass inner member and a copper outer shell. This design is essential for alternate fuels, as it allows for the proper seating and flame characteristics required to maintain a stable preheat flame with gases that burn at different velocities than acetylene.

This Size 0 tip is engineered to cut mild steel ranging from 3/8-inch to 1/2-inch (approximately 10mm to 13mm) in thickness. It is compatible with standard Victor heavy-duty cutting attachments and torch handles, specifically the 300 series (such as the CA2460 attachment or ST2600 torch). The precision-machined splines and gas passages ensure a consistent flame pattern, providing clean, slag-free cuts with minimal cleanup required. The product is supplied in clamshell packaging (CS), ensuring it arrives factory-fresh and protected from contaminants.

Industrial professionals rely on genuine Victor GPN tips for their longevity and reliability in structural steel fabrication, scrap cutting, and maintenance repair operations where propane or natural gas is the preferred fuel source due to cost or availability.
