October 24, 2022- Harris Products Group is expanding its line of V-Series® 62-5straight hand-held cutting torches to include options with equal pressure mixers. The V-Series delivers the performance and quality of the Harris 62-5 while also offering the benefit of using the Victor®-style conical tips that customers may already have in stock.

Harris previously introduced the V62-5 with injector mixers for customers who already had an inventory of Victor tips. With the addition of the equal pressure mixer version, regardless of the type of gas being used, customers can be certain that if they use Harris or Victor tips, they have access to the toughest and Harris’ best-selling torch on the market: the 62-5.

Designed for demanding environments, the V-Series 62-5 line includes torches for most fuel gases or alternate fuels. They are all equipped with FlashGuard® check valves that prevent the reverse flow of gases for added safety. The products are ideal for high-capacity jobs, thick material cutting, and heating, and are commonly used in applications such as scrap yards, shipyards, rail yards and steel mills. The V62-5 reduces the need for grinding and rework, and offers a reduced cost-per-cut and fast preheat times.

The V62-5 torches can cut materials up to 12 inches (304.8 millimeters) thick and come in lengths from 21 inches to 72 inches (533.4 millimeters to 1,828.8 millimeters), for a wide range of cutting and heating needs. The torches have a forged head and are available in 70, 90 and 180-degree head angles.  The lever is made of solid brass which gives each torch a long service life.

Harris torches provide consistent performance, quality and savings benefits that are backed by performance testing. Harris performs flow, leak and flame tests on every torch to ensure high quality and performance. The company’s 24-Point Quality Certification covers every step in the manufacturing process from incoming inspection of raw materials and components to assembly to testing.
