VICTOR
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about VICTOR from 3G Electric.
What is the Victor MPN 0781-3609 regulator rated for?
The Victor MPN 0781-3609 is a single-stage regulator for air and inert gas service. It has a CGA 580 inlet and a 5/8"-15 F RH outlet, and is rated to 150 psig. The regulator uses a stainless steel diaphragm and is ETL Listed and compliant with UL252. It is intended for general purpose pressure reduction and control from a high-pressure source to a usable working pressure. Buyers should confirm the inlet connection matches the cylinder or supply valve in use, and that the outlet fitting matches the downstream hose or manifold.
Which Victor 1-GPN cutting tips are available for machine torches?
The Victor 1-GPN Series includes machine torch cutting tips in sizes 1, 3, 5, and 6. Size 1 (MPN 0333-0303) is rated for 3/4 in material, size 3 (MPN 0333-0305) for 2 in to 2 1/2 in, size 5 (MPN 0333-0307) for 4 in to 5 in, and size 6 (MPN 0333-0308) for 6 in to 8 in. All are two-piece designs compatible with propane and natural gas. Handheld torch variants are also available in sizes 2 and 4. Selection depends on torch type, fuel gas, and steel thickness.
What fuel gases are compatible with Victor 1-GPN cutting tips?
Victor 1-GPN Series cutting tips are compatible with propane and natural gas. These are alternative fuel gases to acetylene and are commonly used in oxy-fuel cutting where the fuel supply or cost profile favors them. The tip orifice and geometry are matched to the fuel gas, so using a tip outside its stated fuel compatibility can affect cut quality and consumable life. Buyers should confirm the fuel gas in use before selecting a tip size and series.
What is the Victor MFN Series heating nozzle used for?
The Victor MFN Series heating nozzle is used for industrial heating applications such as preheating. The size 8 nozzle (MPN 0323-0292) has a tube-and-head tip design and is compatible with propane, propylene, and natural gas. Heating nozzles are typically selected by size and fuel gas to match the required heat output and the torch handle in use. They are distinct from cutting tips and are not intended for severing material.
How do I select the correct Victor cutting tip size for a given steel thickness?
Victor 1-GPN cutting tips are sized by material thickness range. For example, size 1 covers 3/4 in, size 2 covers 1 in to 1 1/2 in, size 3 covers 2 in to 2 1/2 in, size 4 covers 3 in, size 5 covers 4 in to 5 in, and size 6 covers 6 in to 8 in. Selection also depends on whether the torch is handheld or machine-mounted, and on the fuel gas. Using the correct size for the thickness helps maintain cut quality and tip life.
Does 3G Electric supply Victor regulators and consumables globally?
Yes. 3G Electric supplies the Victor line globally, including regulators, cutting tips, heating nozzles, and related consumables. Buyers can request quotes against specific manufacturer part numbers or SKUs. The product data provided includes CGA connection numbers, pressure ratings, tip series, tip sizes, and material thickness ranges, which helps procurement and maintenance teams cross-reference against existing spares lists and torch setups.
