OVERVIEW

Professional Medium-Duty Oxy-Acetylene Solution

The Smith Equipment Toughcut MB55A-510 is a premium medium-duty oxy-acetylene outfit designed for a wide range of industrial and commercial applications. Engineered with the professional in mind, this comprehensive kit provides everything needed for welding, heating, and cutting operations right out of the box. At the core of this system is the WH100 torch handle and CC509P cutting attachment, both of which feature Smith's renowned build quality. The torch assembly utilizes a tube-within-a-tube design to maximize strength while keeping weight to a minimum, reducing operator fatigue during extended use.

Advanced Safety Technology

Safety is paramount in oxy-fuel operations, and the MB55A-510 excels with Smith's proprietary In-Tip Mix technology. Unlike traditional torches that mix gases in the handle or tubes, this system keeps oxygen and acetylene separate until they reach the tip. This design significantly reduces the risk of flashback and improves the longevity of the torch. Furthermore, the three-tube construction of the cutting attachment ensures gases remain isolated, preventing mixing tube burnout and enhancing the structural integrity of the unit.

Reliability and Performance

The outfit includes the rugged Series 30 regulators, known for their durability and precise flow control. These regulators, along with the torch handle and cutting attachment, are backed by a 3-year warranty, reflecting the manufacturer's confidence in their reliability. The kit comes equipped with a selection of tips, including the MC12-1 cutting tip, MW205 welding tip, and MT603 heating tip, allowing users to tackle various tasks immediately. The system utilizes Graf-Tite soft seat tips, which are compressible and practically indestructible, ensuring a positive gas-tight seal that withstands high temperatures and requires less replacement than metal-to-metal seats.

Versatile Capabilities

While the included tips cover standard ranges, the MB55A-510 is capable of much more. With optional tips, this outfit can cut steel up to 6 inches thick and weld materials up to 3/8 inch thick. The slip-in tip design is a favorite among operators, allowing for quick, hand-tightened changes without the need for wrenches. This feature encourages the use of the correct tip for every job, optimizing performance and efficiency. Whether for HVAC, light fabrication, or maintenance, the Smith Toughcut MB55A-510 delivers consistent, professional results.
