Description
STARCUT torches are made in types 1222–9622, and ESSEN torches of types 1216–9625 are designed for gas mixing nozzles. A burner system is assembled from a STAR 1000, 1010 or 2020 handle, STARLET 1302 or 2221, or MINITHERM and a replaceable insert. A cutting attachment, welding, soldering or heating tip, fork burner or attachment for straightening and flame cleaning is fitted to one handle. The range covers the whole chain from the gas take-off point and safety devices to special nozzles, and a spare parts list is issued for each model. The tools are made in Gross-Umstadt (Germany), and the company's processes have been certified to DIN EN ISO 9001 since 1991. The manufacturing tradition goes back to 1898, and the first oxygen cutting torch was created in 1903.
How to choose
The head angle and barrel length of STARCUT are chosen for access to the cutting point, and a longer barrel keeps the hand farther from the flame and slag. A shop with gas mixing nozzles takes ESSEN, and for several operations with one handle the STAR, STARLET or MINITHERM system with a set of inserts is more convenient. In scrap yards, mines, shipyards and confined spaces the S.A.T. set with the STARCUT 5622 S.A.T. torch is appropriate. For long straight cuts at constant speed the portable Secator 2 machine with a 180 cm rail and a feed of 0–150 cm/min is a better fit.

FAQ
How does the S.A.T. safety system work on a manual gas cutting torch?
If the fuel gas hose is damaged, the flame goes out and the S.A.T. valve automatically shuts off the gas supply to the torch. The flame needs almost no adjustment, and ECO S.A.T. nozzles are changed by hand without tools.
Can a manual torch make a straight cut or a bevel without a machine?
Yes, the STABLECUT mechanical guide moves the torch along a 380, 610, 910 or 1220 mm rail held by magnets. It cuts horizontally, vertically and overhead and makes bevels up to 60° without electric power.
Which fuel gases do STARCUT and ESSEN torches run on?
There are versions for acetylene (A), for propane, methane and MAPP (PMY), and for ethylene (E). Compatible torches and nozzles are offered for the HyCut hydrogen process.
Which inserts are fitted to the STAR 2020 handle?
Cutting attachments, welding, soldering and heating tips, fork heating burners, and attachments for straightening and flame cleaning. The same replaceable insert principle applies to STAR 1000 and 1010.
