Arccaptain Oxy Acetylene Cutting Torch AR-CT120

Features：

Medium Duty Cutting & Welding Power
This medium-duty oxy-acetylene torch kit delivers the perfect balance of portability and performance. Equipped with a 1-101 cutting tip, it cuts up to 4.7 inches (120mm) of carbon steel and welds up to 2 inches (52mm). Compatible with acetylene, propane, and natural gas (tip change required), it’s ideal for shop work, farm repairs, and on-site fabrication.

Dual Flashback Protection for Everyday Safety
The torch handle features built-in flashback arrestors and a 90° cutting head to help prevent dangerous flame reverse flow and flashback incidents. Combined with high-quality sealing components, this kit delivers consistent, safe operation—meeting the needs of daily use in workshops and job sites.

Durable, Heat-Resistant Construction
Built with a V-shaped dual stainless steel tube for excellent pressure resistance and high-temperature endurance. The solid brass handle offers superior durability and abuse resistance, while silicone-sealed O-rings prevent leaks. Copper cutting tips resist heat damage, reduce carbon buildup, and keep performance steady over time.

Wide Compatibility & Easy Maintenance
Designed to work with standard, widely available cutting tips and accessories, this torch kit makes replacements and upgrades simple. Its modular build allows for quick tip changes and easy cleaning, keeping downtime to a minimum.

Complete Kit – Ready for Shop or Field Work
Includes everything you need: torch handle with cutting attachment ×1, flashback arrestors ×2, 1-3-101 cutting tips ×2, welding tips ×3 (#0, #2, #4), tip cleaner ×1, flint striker ×1, and user manual ×1. Whether in the shop, on the farm, or in the field, this all-in-one kit gets you working right out of the box.

Oxy-Acetylene Cutting vs Plasma Cutting

Feature	Oxy Acetylene Cutting	Plasma Cutting
Working Principle	Uses an oxy-fuel flame to preheat the steel to its ignition temperature, then a high-pressure oxygen jet oxidizes and blows away the molten metal.	Uses a high-temperature, high-velocity plasma arc to melt the metal and blow it away with compressed gas.
Energy Source	Oxygen + fuel gas (acetylene, propane, natural gas, etc.)	Electricity + compressed air (or nitrogen, argon, etc.)
Temperature	Flame temperature ~ 3,200°C (5,800°F)	Plasma arc temperature up to 20,000°C (36,000°F)
Material Compatibility	Best for carbon steel; not ideal for stainless steel, aluminum, or non-ferrous metals.	Cuts almost all conductive metals, including carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and copper.
Cutting Thickness	Excellent for thick plate (>5mm), can cut up to several inches.	Best for thin to medium thickness (0.5–50mm), industrial units can cut thicker.
Speed	Slower, but efficient for thick materials.	Very fast on thin and medium materials.
Cut Quality	Rougher edges, larger heat-affected zone, may require grinding.	Smoother edges, minimal heat-affected zone, higher precision.
Portability	Gas cylinders can be moved easily, ideal for field work.	Requires power source and air compressor (some portable units have built-in compressors).
Safety Considerations	Risk of gas explosion; open flame can ignite flammable materials.	Risk of electric shock, intense UV radiation, and molten metal spatter.
Cost	Lower initial cost, but ongoing gas expense.	Higher initial cost, but lower consumable cost (mainly air).
Typical Applications	Heavy steel plate cutting, field repairs, demolition work.	Precision fabrication, stainless steel and aluminum work, automotive repair, sheet metal jobs.
