Welding Handles & Flame Tips
A professional Uniweld torch handle and flame-tip range for HVAC/R, refrigeration, plumbing, brazing, soldering and heating applications.
Technical snapshot
One product family, multiple flame patterns.
The Omni Tools range includes the WH250 handle plus Type 17, Tuning Fork™ and Cap’n Hook® flame tip options for different HVAC/R service and brazing tasks.Torch setup control
Choose the flame shape that suits the fitting, tube size and heat zone.
The Uniweld welding handle and flame-tip range gives technicians a practical way to match heat output to the task. Use a focused tip for direct work, the Tuning Fork™ tip for surrounding a reversing valve, or the Cap’n Hook® tips when wraparound heat helps bring copper tubing up to brazing temperature evenly.
- Professional torch handle and flame-tip options for HVAC/R and refrigeration work.
- Suitable for brazing, soldering, heating and copper pipe service tasks.
- WH250 provides the handpiece for controlled torch operation.
- TYPE17TFT helps heat multiple reversing-valve fittings at once.
- MTF Cap’n Hook® tips give broader wraparound heat across multiple tube sizes.
Flame choice matters
Different fittings need different flame behaviour. A single focused flame is useful for controlled heating, while broader multi-flame patterns help spread heat around pipework and fittings.
- Focused heating for fittings, repairs and localised brazing work.
- Split flame coverage around reversing valves and awkward tube clusters.
- Wraparound heating for larger copper tubing and broad heat distribution.
Flame-pattern guide
From pinpoint control to wraparound coverage.
Select the tip by the heating pattern required, not just by the pipe size. The right tip helps put heat where it is needed while reducing unnecessary heat around nearby components.
Main torch handpiece for controlled operation with compatible Uniweld flame tools and service setups.
A Type 17 rosebud-style option for brazing, soldering and heating copper tube and fittings.
Fork-shaped flame pattern for heating multiple fittings on heat pump reversing valves.
Cap’n Hook® multi-flame tips for even heat distribution around copper tubing.
Tip selector
Match the tip to the service task.
Use as the handpiece for compatible torch setups. Check handle, adaptor, gas and tip compatibility before use.
For brazing and heating work where a Type 17 heating pattern is preferred.
Useful for heat pump reversing valve removal and installation where multiple fittings need heat at once.
5-flame hook tip for smaller copper tubing and concentrated wraparound heat.
9-flame hook tip for medium copper tubing and wider heat spread.
17-flame hook tip for larger copper tubing and broad heat coverage.
Brazing workflow
Set up, purge, heat and protect the work area.
Match the handle, tip, adaptor, gas and hose setup before lighting the torch.
Clean copper surfaces, position alloy and protect nearby heat-sensitive components.
Use the flame pattern that gives even heat without overheating the surrounding area.
Allow the joint to cool safely, then check joint fill, tube condition and site safety.
Torch care
Keep handles, tips and threads clean.
Store tips safely, keep threads and seats clean, check O-rings and connections where fitted, and inspect handles and hoses before each use.
Hot-work reminders
- Follow site hot-work procedures and keep suitable fire protection nearby.
- Use correct PPE when heating, brazing or soldering copper tube.
- Keep flame away from wiring, insulation, refrigerant lines, panels and combustible materials.
- Do not exceed listed gas pressures or use tips with incompatible handles or gases.
