Propane Torches

These torches handle brazing and soldering, as well as heating jobs. A swirl-flame tip creates a small, tight flame for heat concentration and efficient gas usage. Torches can be directly connected to a propane cylinder. Note: Torches can only be used with propylene gas for silver soldering applications. Maximum power output and flame temperature values shown are for use with propane.
