- Model: PTV472
- Burner: 22mm
- Flame temperature: over 2000 degrees C
- Weight: 400g
- Handle: bi-material grip
- Gas: MAP//PRO cylinders
- Brand: Vulcane
- Burner type: turbo flame
Its turbo flame burner wraps the flame around the circumference of the tube, distributing heat around the joint rather than on one face. The torch is used with a MAP//PRO cylinder, which is ordered separately. A matching Vulcane Express stop flame pad is listed for putting out residual flame at the burner after brazing.
Order a MAP//PRO cylinder if you do not already have one. Brazing on refrigerant pipework must be done by an ARC-licensed technician, and plumbing work by a licensed plumber. Read the operating and safety instructions before first use, and follow hot work precautions such as clearing combustible material and keeping an extinguisher close by.
