639607 - Oxweld 1566HS Size 6 High-Speed Machine Cutting Tip for Propane

High-Performance Machine Cutting with Oxweld 1566HS

The Oxweld 1566HS Size 6 Cutting Tip (SKU: 639607) is a premium consumable designed for industrial machine cutting applications. Engineered by ESAB under the legendary Oxweld brand, this tip is part of the High-Speed (HS) series, specifically developed to maximize productivity in automated cutting environments. Unlike standard hand-cutting tips, the 1566HS series features a divergent bore and internal geometry optimized for high-velocity oxygen flow, allowing for cutting speeds that can exceed standard tips by up to 20% while maintaining cut quality.

This specific nozzle is a Size 6, intended for heavy-duty fabrication tasks involving thick steel plate, typically in the range of 6 inches. It is designed exclusively for use with alternate fuels such as Propane and Natural Gas. The use of these fuels in machine cutting is highly economical, and the 1566HS tip ensures that the preheat flame is stable and hot enough to maintain the cut without the interruptions often associated with alternative fuels. The two-piece construction (internal and external) allows for easy maintenance and efficient gas mixing, ensuring safety and performance.

Durability is a hallmark of the Oxweld line. The 1566HS tips are constructed to withstand the intense reflected heat of heavy plate cutting. The chrome plating and robust seating surfaces resist wear and corrosion, extending the lifespan of the consumable even in harsh shop environments. Whether you are operating a gantry cutter, a track burner, or a specialized beveling machine, the Oxweld 1566HS Size 6 tip delivers the consistency and speed required to keep production lines moving efficiently.

Key Benefits for Industrial Fabricators

• Increased Throughput: High-speed design allows for faster travel speeds without losing the cut.
• Cost Efficiency: Optimized for Propane/Natural Gas, reducing overall fuel costs compared to Acetylene.
• Superior Cut Quality: Produces smooth, square faces with minimal slag, reducing secondary grinding operations.
• Heavy Capacity: Size 6 bore handles thick plate cutting with ease.
