0311-0232 - Victor Type 55 Size 20 Multi-Flame Heating Nozzle for Propane/Natural Gas

Heavy-Duty Industrial Heating Performance

The Victor 0311-0232 Type 55 Size 20 Heating Nozzle is a premier solution for industrial professionals requiring substantial heat output for heavy-duty applications. Engineered by Victor, a leader in gas equipment, this multi-flame heating head is designed specifically for use with alternative fuels such as Propane, Natural Gas, Propylene, and Butane. It is explicitly not compatible with Acetylene, ensuring safety and performance optimization for the intended fuel gases.

This single-piece nozzle features a robust construction capable of withstanding the rigors of harsh industrial environments. The Type 55 Series is renowned for its efficiency in preheating large metal components, straightening structural steel, and performing shrink-fitting operations. The Size 20 tip delivers a high volume of heat, making it an essential tool for shipyards, heavy fabrication shops, and maintenance departments where rapid temperature elevation is critical.

Compatibility is key with the 0311-0232. It is designed to fit Victor HD 310C torch handles and other standard 300 Series handles. Due to the high volume of gas flow required to sustain the large multi-flame output, it is strongly recommended to use a 3/8-inch hose (up to 50 feet in length) to prevent starvation and ensure a stable flame. The threaded design allows for secure attachment, and the nozzle can be used with special extension adapters if reach is a concern.

By utilizing alternative fuels, this heating tip offers a cost-effective solution for operations that consume large amounts of gas. The flame characteristics are optimized for soaking heat into thick materials rather than the concentrated point-heat typical of welding tips. Whether you are bending pipe, removing seized heavy machinery parts, or preparing surfaces for welding, the Victor Type 55 Size 20 provides the thermal power necessary to get the job done efficiently.
