Cutting Torch Tip Size Chart
Safety note: this table transcribes one American Torch Tip chart for Victor-compatible 1-101 and 3-101 tip styles; it is not a universal Victor or oxy-acetylene setting. Use the chart for your exact torch, tip, and fuel gas. The chart also warns not to withdraw acetylene from an individual cylinder faster than one-seventh of its contents.

Before Selecting A Cutting Tip
- Match the tip series to the torch and fuel gas.
- Choose the tip from the metal thickness and the manufacturer’s cut chart.
- Follow the cylinder supplier’s acetylene withdrawal limit; the cited chart warns not to exceed one-seventh of an individual cylinder’s contents.
- Clean the tip with the correct tip cleaner, not random wire or drill bits.
- Use proper PPE and keep combustibles away from the cutting area.
Source Notes
The table reproduces the American Torch Tip chart for Victor-compatible 1-101 and 3-101 styles. American Torch Tip states that it is not affiliated with Victor, so treat this as a reference for those replacement-tip styles only. ESAB Victor Type 101 product specifications provide another example of why settings are tied to a specific tip. Follow the instructions for your exact torch and tip; do not transfer these values to another series.
