FAQs
What is the maximum temperature this torch can reach?
The Intcoll Double Head Torch can reach a maximum temperature of 2383°F (1306°C).
Can I use this torch with any type of gas cylinder?
No, this torch is specifically designed for 14.1 oz MAP-Pro Gas Cylinders or 14.1 and 16.4 oz disposable propane cylinders, using the CGA600 thread connector.
How do I activate the self-ignition feature?
Simply press the ignition trigger button located on the torch handle. Ensure the gas is turned on slightly before pressing the trigger.
What is the benefit of having dual heads?
The dual heads provide a larger flame and higher heat output, allowing for faster heating and increased efficiency on larger tasks compared to single-head torches.
Are the stainless steel tips more durable than brass?
Yes, stainless steel tips are generally more durable and reliable than brass tips, offering a longer service life and consistent performance.
How should I store the torch?
Store the torch in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area after ensuring it has cooled down completely and is disconnected from the fuel cylinder.
What does the 360-degree swivel tip allow me to do?
The 360-degree swivel tip allows you to direct the flame at any angle without needing to rotate the entire torch or cylinder, providing greater flexibility in tight or awkward spaces.
Troubleshooting
Torch will not ignite.
Check that the cylinder is properly connected and the valve is slightly open. Ensure the igniter button is being pressed firmly. If the igniter seems worn, try lighting with a separate spark lighter or match (use caution).
Flame is weak or inconsistent.
Ensure the cylinder has sufficient fuel. Check for proper thread tightness on the cylinder connection. Clean any debris from the torch tips and air intake vents.
Gas leaks detected.
Immediately turn off the gas supply. Check the connection between the torch and the cylinder for proper tightening. Inspect the O-ring on the cylinder valve and torch fitting for damage; replace if necessary. Do not use if a leak persists.
Swivel tips are stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure the torch is cool. Gently try to rotate the tips. If still stiff, check for any obstructions or debris around the swivel mechanism. Avoid forcing the movement.
