This Torch Handle is capable of welding metals from 1/32″ up to 1-1/4″ thick.
The included Welding Nozzle, size 0, will weld metals up to 1/16″ thick.
Check the thickness of the metals to be welded and use the chart below to choose the size nozzle for the job.
If welding metals other than 1/32″ to 1/16″ thick, a different welding nozzle will be needed.
Note:
Welding the thicker metals noted below will require special techniques,
such as edge chamfering, that are outside the scope of this manual.
