This ImpGen 3-1\/2\" adapter is a direct replacement for the standard brass head tube on the Meco Midget torch, and it addresses one of the most common complaints with that torch by expanding what you can comfortably accomplish in a single sitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered for durability and comfort, the adapter is constructed from twin tubes of special 304 stainless steel, a significant improvement over the simple brass tube it replaces. The brass tip carries cooling fins for additional heat protection, and torch-to-tip sealing can be performed face-to-face as well as by the nose-radius-to-inside-seat-angle method, reflecting careful engineering at this critical safety junction. A copper ferrule on the torch end of the adapter provides cushioning for a more secure seal at another key connection point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is straightforward: unscrew the existing Meco Midget head tube from the body and thread on the ImpGen Cooler Head Tube Adapter in its place. The manufacturer recommends using a suitable wrench for a firm final turn. Torch tips are then screwed onto the brass tip just beyond hand-tight using the same wrench. Always check for leaks before use, as with any torch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplaces the standard brass head tube on the Meco Midget torch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces heat transfer back into the torch body for a cooler, more comfortable working experience\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstructed from twin tubes of 304 stainless steel for enhanced durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass tip with cooling fins provides additional heat dissipation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual sealing method, face-to-face and nose-radius-to-inside-seat-angle, for improved safety\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCopper ferrule on the torch end cushions and seals the connection point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with oxy\/propane, oxy\/natural gas, and oxy\/acetylene fuel mixtures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstalls with no special tools beyond a suitable wrench\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits the Meco Midget torch in place of its standard brass head tube\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks with the same oxy\/fuel mixtures you already run: oxy\/propane, oxy\/natural gas, or oxy\/acetylene\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeco N type single-hole tips are compatible with all of these gas combinations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImpGen Artisan Laminar tips are compatible with oxy\/propane and oxy\/natural gas only, not with oxy\/acetylene\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNotes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse a suitable wrench for the final turn when threading the adapter onto the torch body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew torch tips onto the brass tip just beyond hand-tight with the same wrench\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlways check for gas leaks before use after installation or a tip change\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ImpGen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43584706707670,"sku":"114.025","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9832\/0342\/files\/impgen-meco-midget-3-12-head-tube-adapter-otto-frei-1.jpg?v=1719956000","url":"https:\/\/www.ottofrei.com\/it\/products\/impgen-meco-midget-cooler-head-tube-adapter-3-5in","provider":"Otto Frei","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
