Swiss Torch with Platinum Head (For Use with Propane or Natural Gas)

The Swiss Torch is the most popular jeweler's torch used in Europe, manufactured in Switzerland and trusted by craftsmen for its balance, precision, and versatility. This configuration pairs the Swiss Torch body with the Platinum Head (114.109-116), designed specifically for working with high-melting-point metals such as platinum. The longer neck and specially shaped tip produce a hotter, more concentrated flame ideal for platinum work, melting, and small-batch casting.

The Swiss Torch system is renowned for its modularity—functioning as four torches in one. The full system encompasses a Hoke-style repair head familiar to North American jewelers, a microhead with three hypodermic tips for precision soldering and welding, the platinum head included here, and casting torch heads available in oxy/gas or compressed air/gas configurations. This listing focuses on the body paired with the platinum head.

Important: The Platinum Head is compatible with Propane or Natural Gas only. It is not for use with Acetylene or Hydrogen.
