CS2615 - Victor CutSkill CS261-5 Propane Cutting Tip Size 5 (Airco Style)

Heavy-Duty Propane Cutting with Victor CutSkill

The Victor CutSkill CS261-5 is a premium replacement cutting tip designed to bring efficiency and durability to your oxy-fuel cutting operations. Engineered specifically for use with Airco-style torches, this tip belongs to the 261 series, which is the industry standard for cutting with alternative fuels such as Propane and Natural Gas. Unlike acetylene tips, which are typically one-piece, the CS261-5 utilizes a two-piece design consisting of an outer shell and a splined inner member. This configuration is essential for stabilizing the flame of alternative gases, ensuring a consistent and hot preheat required to pierce and cut through heavy steel.

With a Size 5 rating, this tip is built for heavy industrial work. It is capable of cutting through steel thicknesses ranging approximately from 4 to 6 inches, making it an ideal choice for scrap yards, demolition crews, and heavy fabrication shops. The Victor CutSkill line is renowned for offering professional-grade performance at a price point that makes sense for high-volume users. By switching to propane or natural gas with the CS261-5, shops can significantly reduce their fuel gas costs without sacrificing cut quality on thicker materials.

Compatibility is key in mixed-equipment environments. This tip is manufactured to precise tolerances to ensure it fits perfectly into Airco-style cutting attachments and hand torches. The seating surfaces are machined to prevent gas leaks, ensuring safety and performance. Whether you are processing structural beams or cutting up heavy machinery, the CS261-5 delivers the heat and oxygen stream velocity needed for clean, slag-free cuts.
