Cam-Adjustable Torch Carrier

The cam-adjustable torch carrier (diameter of 1.375″ / 35 mm) makes it simple to make perfect, no-notch cuts every time. Just start the cut away from the desired cut line, use the knurled cam adjustment knob to move the torch into the cut line, then start cutting.

In addition, the torch holder’s large wing screw makes tightening the torch in the torch holder easy, even when wearing gloves. The innovative design even allows forward or back-beveling without the need to reverse the torch holder in the torch arm. PART NO. 03.0100.052
