MARKSMAN Multi Purpose Gas Torch Head

Product Information

Always keep in mind with these torches that there needs to be a fuel source. In some instances, the fuel is included, but not always. Make sure to read the directions thoroughly so that you know exactly what kind of fuel to buy for your device. Some torches require proprietary fuel, so make sure you have some when you plan to use it. Even though the torch itself is just shy of 5 inches, it can still churn out a flame as long as 6 inches. If you plan to use this for big-batch torching, you may find it cumbersome to continuously refill the comparatively small canister, but this would be great for a kitchen torching novice.

Torch heads are screwed onto canisters, which means it’s simpler to refill because the gas is coming directly from the source, as opposed to refilling a smaller canister. That said, this setup does require holding the entire canister as you use it, which can prove more difficult for inexperienced cooks. Torch heads and refillable canisters are roughly the same size, but you need to keep in mind that when you’re using a torch head, you’ll also have the entire canister attached, which can be larger and bulky.

The GoSystem GB2070H DIY Blow Torch features a rugged flame and is ideal for general DIY, paint stripping, plumbing and soldering. Features & Benefits: Before refilling your torch, you should always ensure that the gas flow is off. The refill port and nozzle is at the bottom of the torch. Give the butane a little shake, and then insert the nozzle into the canister while pressing and holding. This pressure will create a flow that allows the butane to enter the nozzle. After a few seconds, the canister will be filled and you can release. It’s best to refill your torch in an open space. The Rothenberger Super Fire 2 features a lightweight and compact design, making it easy to handle and maneuver in tight spaces. It also has a large fuel tank, allowing for extended use without the need for frequent refills. The torch also comes with a pressure gauge, so you can easily monitor and adjust the fuel pressure as needed.Although it’s lighter than propane, it’s very flammable so be very careful when using it. This kind of torch is typically used for welding. 3. Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) Torch One fuel type, gas, is known to have a higher burn rate than the other two, but this doesn’t necessarily mean you will be able to “blow up” your torch with it. You’ll need to separately buy a 14- or 16-ounce propane tank to fuel the torch. The adjustable flame knob allows you to control the strength of the flame as well as safely extinguish it when you’re done torching. There is an angled nozzle that prevents you from having to twist your hand awkwardly for even burning. Some reviewers note that it can be fussy to refill, so try flipping the handle upside down before adding the butane. To get the best meringue result when torching, it’s important not to stay in one spot too long,” says Domenica Lazo, Assistant Application Chef at Barry Callebaut. “Depending on the power of the torch, I may hold it 1.5 to 3.5 inches away from the direct surface. Typically it is best to start around the edges of the meringue and work your way to the center, moving on when the previous area has a nice golden brown surface."
