Oxygen Acetylene Cutting Nozzle — hot, fast preheat for thick steel sections
An Oxygen Acetylene Cutting Nozzle from REAL GAZ delivers the high flame temperature of acetylene with a focused jet of cutting oxygen. Acetylene lights quickly and heats steel rapidly, which makes it popular for thicker plate, forgings and repair work.
Our nozzles are available in several sizes so that the correct flame power can be matched to the section being cut.

Selection follows EN ISO 5172 for blowpipes, with acetylene system practice from ISO 14114 and cut quality judged to ISO 9013, for fabrication and heavy industry.
🏭 Where Acetylene Cutting Nozzles Are Used
- 🏭 Steel mills — cuts risers, sprues and heavy ingots where fast preheating saves time on every piece;;
- 🚂 Railway workshops — splits worn rail sections and prepares frame components for repair;;
- 🚢 Shipbreaking and repair — removes hull plate and framing in yards where portable gear is essential;;
- 🏗️ Structural steelwork — bevels thick plate edges ahead of multi-pass welding..
💡 Why Choose REAL GAZ
- ✅ Fast start — acetylene heats the cut line quickly, which shortens piercing time on thick material;;
- 🧪 Durable alloy — copper-rich bodies conduct heat away from the seat and withstand flame backfire stress better than weak castings;;
- 🎯 Size choice — several bore sizes let you match oxygen flow to plate thickness without waste;;
- 🔒 Handled with care — each nozzle is cleaned of oil and chips, which matters for any oxygen-wetted part;;
- 📄 Material and inspection records — supplied on request with every order.
🔧 Operating Notes
- Acetylene must never be used above its limit of 1.5 bar working pressure, so check the regulator setting before lighting the torch;
- Light with acetylene first for a short time, add the oxygen, and then adjust to a neutral flame with a sharp inner cone;
- Keep the nozzle about 3 to 5 mm above the plate during preheating, and start cutting only when the metal shows a bright cherry-red spot;
- Close the cutting oxygen lever before shutting off the gases, and always purge hoses in a ventilated area after changing a cylinder.
🔬 Quality Control & Safety
- oil-free cleaning of oxygen passages;
- bore alignment inspection;
- seat flatness and thread control;
- pressure and tightness test on sample lots.
Always use with a flashback arrestor on both gases and keep acetylene cylinders upright and secured.
⚙️ Trusted Gas Solutions
REAL GAZ supplies Oxygen Acetylene Cutting Nozzle products together with acetylene and oxygen cylinders, regulators and arrestors across Azerbaijan, Turkey, Georgia, Uzbekistan and the USA. One supplier for gas and equipment keeps ordering simple and compatibility clear.
Acetylene remains a favourite where speed and a hot, concentrated flame are valued, particularly on heavy or contaminated steel. Matching the right nozzle to the gas pressure and plate thickness gets the most out of each cylinder and helps reduce the amount of oxygen consumed.
REAL GAZ — the right tip for every thickness.
