0386-0170 - TurboTorch ST-1 Propane & MAPP Swirl Combustion Tip

TurboTorch ST-1 Extreme STK Tip Overview

The TurboTorch ST-1 Extreme STK Tip (0386-0170) represents the pinnacle of air-fuel combustion technology for professional tradespeople. Designed to meet the rigorous demands of the HVAC and plumbing industries, this tip integrates TurboTorch's proprietary Extreme Swirl Technology. This innovation creates a vortex of heat within the tip, delivering a concentrated and high-velocity flame that significantly improves heat transfer efficiency. By maximizing the thermal output of Propane and MAP-Pro gases, the ST-1 allows technicians to complete brazing and soldering tasks faster than ever before.

One of the standout features of the ST-1 is its 360-degree swivel capability. In complex piping installations, accessing joints located against walls or in tight corners can be a major challenge. The swivel design allows the user to rotate the tip to the optimal angle without changing the position of the torch handle, ensuring consistent heat application and reducing operator fatigue. The tip is constructed with industrial-grade materials to withstand high temperatures and daily job site abuse, ensuring a long service life.

Maintenance is also streamlined with the ST-1. The tip features an easy-to-clean orifice screw, allowing users to quickly clear obstructions and maintain peak performance without needing specialized tools or extensive downtime. Whether you are soft soldering copper pipes up to 3/4 inch or silver brazing up to 1/2 inch using MAPP gas, the ST-1 delivers the reliability and precision required for leak-free joints. It is the ideal upgrade for any professional using STK series handles.
