Blazer 189-4004 GB4001 Stingray Butane Torch, Silver

The Blazer Stingray Silver butane torch is an anodized, refillable gas torch that creates a precise flame emitting from a nozzle head, allowing direct heat application to an object. It is used for detailed purposes such as brazing, plumbing, soldering, jewelry making, culinary, and dental and lab applications. The Stingray has an anodized silver outer body finish, which increases thickness and strength to resist wear and corrosion. It features a gas flow adjustment lever, to control its blue flame length. It comes with an attachable, tabletop stand for hands-free work. The torch houses a piezoelectric ignition system, which is based on a pressurized molecular reaction, and requires no electric connection. Piezoelectric energy occurs when the trigger is activated, releasing a small, spring-loaded internal hammer that strikes a crystal, producing a spark and resulting in gas flame ignition. With a maximum flame temperature of 2,500 degrees F, the Stingray has a continuous burn time of approximately 1.5 to 2.0 hours, at maximum fuel volume, and has a 26-gram gas capacity. The torch head has a 90-degree fixed angle, and its flame range is 0.5 to 1.25 inches. It has a safety component that offers manual lock of the ignition, when not in use. It measures 6.0 (l) x 3.5 (w) x 1.33 (d) inches, and weighs 6.3 ounces. The Stingray Silver Micro Torch operates with a standard butane canister (sold separately).
