SeaTorch® Combination Torch
The Sea Torch is an improved underwater cutting and welding torch with a one piece body construction. Fully insulated electrically for safety in normal operation, the Sea Torch is bright orange for high visibility to the diver. This torch can be used for oxygen-arc cutting and underwater welding.
The one piece body prohibits oxygen leakage in the torch body which can occur with torches having connections between the head and the handle. The tapered collet in the Sea Torch brings the bare surface of an electrode into contact for the entire length of the collet. This solid grip and increased contact area decreases the risk of arcing between the collet and the electrode, eliminating damage to the torch head. Sea Torch has a single external collet taper which forces the collet and electrode against a seal, ensuring a positive sealing of oxygen flow in that area.
The oxygen path is metallic instead of plastic to avoid the possibility of damage by ignition of plastic. By loosening two set screws, the oxygen valve and lever can be rotated to different positions to provide easier oxygen flow control for the diver. Sea Torch is equipped with a spark arrester behind the collet chuck for safe operation. A ball check valve in the torch handle gives additional protection.
Collet Changes
Sea Torch Combination Torch (14-050-124) has a
5/16" (7.9 mm) collet chuck for underwater cutting with Sea-Cut® I or
Tuff Cote® underwater electrodes. Sea Torch Combination Torch, Part No.
14-050-126, has a 3/8" (9.5 mm) collet chuck for underwater cutting with
Sea Dragon™ or Sea Jet® exothermic cutting rods.
The 5/16" and 3/8" collets now come in the standard or long collet and the stubby collet which are comparable to other collets on the market. These stubby collets make it less confusing for the diver when making a collet change. To use the above torches for underwater welding, there are collet chucks available for use with the Sea Weld® underwater wet welding electrodes.
