FS-OXA-NOZZLE-SET-1-10
Oxy-Acetylene Welding Nozzle Set No. 1–10
Ten British-size welding nozzles, No. 1 through No. 10, in one indexed case. The welding set for shops that work thin sheet one hour and 6 mm plate the next — every size to hand without a trip to the spares drawer.
FS-OXA-NOZZLE-16
Acetylene Welding Nozzle No. 16 (Heating)
High-flow single for heavy heating and pre-heat. No. 16 puts out the broad, hot flame needed to bring thick stock, castings and large fittings up to temperature — without the flame shrink you get forcing a small nozzle past its rating.
FS-CLN-12
Tip Cleaner Set, 12 Sizes
Twelve calibrated cleaning wires in a pocket case — the entry SKU and the universal companion to every nozzle on the site. A ragged flame usually means a dirty orifice; this set fixes it for less than the cost of one cartridge.
05 / FAQ
Questions
Why is No. 5 the most re-ordered size?
It sits at the sweet spot for general fabrication: heavy enough for 3–5 mm plate, fine enough to keep the weld pool controlled. Most UK workshop welding falls in this band.
Is this a genuine [manufacturer] part?
No — this is a high-quality compatible replacement sized to the British No. series. It is an independent spare; the brand of your torch head is used for fitment reference only.
