Smith® Heating Tip - ST Series (Acetylene) ST603
Smith's® ST Series, multi-flame heating tip, size ST603,
is designed to provide large volumes of heat for
applications such as: heat treating, priming, bending,
straightening, pre-heating, brazing, shrinking,
forming and many others. Heating tips provide
significant cost savings in many applications.
By providing great amounts of quick, concentrated
heat, heating tips do the job faster and cut labor time
to a minimum. For proper performance, use the
recommended pressures for each tip and with an
adequate gas supply. Manifolding of cylinders is
essential for safe and efficient operation of large
size heating tips.
Acetylene multi-flame heating tips are designed to
provide large volumes of concentrated heat for
bending, straightening, shrinking, forming and many
other applications. Smaller sizes are often used for
bronze welding or for applying hard facing metal to
large areas.
For oxy/acetylene or oxy/hydrogen. Suitable for use with Smith WH200, SW1A and SW1B torch handles.
CAUTION: Heating tips must be used in conjunction
with high flow flashback arrestors. It may be necessary
to increase outlet pressures to compensate for flow
restrictions that may be created by flashback arrestors.
WARNING: MANIFOLDING CYLINDERS: When
required flows (cubic feet per hour - SCFH)
exceed the recommended withdrawal rate
from one cylinder then additional cylinders
must be manifolded to provide safe and
efficient operation. Acetylene must not be
withdrawn at more than 1/7 of the cylinder
capacity (47 SCFH for a 330 cu. ft. cylinder).
Consult your gas supplier for manifolding
instructions for the gases and cylinders
supplied to you.
