Ease-on cutting oxygen
Provides exceptionally smooth application of cutting oxygen, reducing keyholing and slag blowback without sacrificing extremely high cutting capacity.

Reversible cutting lever
Top or bottom mount lever for ease of use.

Adjustable valve resistance
PTFE packing provides a gas-tight seal while allowing the “drag” to be adjusted to the individual preference.

Stainless steel ball-style valves
Provide smooth adjustment and positive seating to eliminate leaks.

Three-tube construction
Keeps gases separate in the cutting attachment until mixed at the tip for safety.

Replaceable hose connections
