0386-0384 - TurboTorch X-5MC Extreme Air Acetylene Torch Kit for MC Tanks

Professional Air Acetylene Torch Kit for MC Tanks

The TurboTorch EXTREME X-5MC Torch Kit (0386-0384) represents the industry standard for HVAC and plumbing professionals requiring a reliable, high-performance air-acetylene system. Engineered to maximize thermal efficiency, this kit utilizes TurboTorch's proprietary Swirl Combustion Technology. This design creates a high-velocity, swirling flame that wraps around tubing, ensuring even heat distribution and significantly faster brazing times compared to conventional tips. The X-5MC is specifically configured for portability and ease of use with 10 cubic foot (MC) acetylene cylinders, making it an essential tool for service technicians who need to navigate tight spaces or carry equipment up ladders.

At the core of this kit is the G-4 handle, a robust and ergonomically designed torch handle that features quick-disconnect couplings. This allows operators to switch between different tip sizes rapidly without the need for tools, enhancing productivity on the job site. The included A-5 tip is optimized for a wide range of common pipe sizes, offering a soft soldering capacity of up to 1-1/2 inches (38mm) and a silver brazing capacity of up to 3/4 inch (19mm). The system operates without the need for an oxygen cylinder, drawing necessary air from the atmosphere through the venturi effect in the tip, which simplifies the setup and reduces the weight of the gear required.

Safety and durability are paramount in the design of the X-5MC. The kit includes the AR-MC regulator, which features a CGA 200 connection tailored for MC tanks, ensuring a secure and leak-free attachment. The system employs color-coded O-rings—specifically red for acetylene—to prevent cross-connection with other fuel gases, thereby enhancing operational safety. The included AH-12 hose provides 12 feet of reach, offering flexibility when working on ceiling-mounted units or in complex piping arrangements. Whether for installation, maintenance, or repair, the TurboTorch X-5MC delivers consistent, high-temperature performance that professionals trust.
