Just what is a gas cutting nozzle? This is a metallic device used in the fabrication industry. Its primary and core function is to preheat the metal to be cut to its ignition or melting point.
Additionally, it provides a stream of oxygen gas to react with the metal being cut and consequently blows away the slag. Echoing this, it is the device at the piping tip of commonly used oxy-acetylene flame used for cutting steel. The small metallic part that dispenses the flame.
There is a variety of gas cutting nozzle types in the market. Each is chosen depending on the size, torch type, material, bore diameter, thickness to be cut, and the pressure of oxygen. These nozzles have extensive use in the fabrication industry, each delivering a certain specific cut.
