Product Description
The Iroda PT-600W Professional Torch Head is a high-output, precision flame torch attachment engineered for demanding professional and heavy-duty applications. Designed as a cartridge-style blow torch head, it threads directly onto standard US 1-inch CGA600 valve cylinders (compatible with MAP/Pro gas canisters from brands like Worthington or Bernzomatic, and also works with propane cylinders), delivering powerful, adjustable performance in a compact, ergonomic package.
Key Features:
- High-output precision flame — Features an advanced nozzle design with adjustable airflow and flame control for stronger, more consistent output—up to 35% more power than standard MAP/Pro torches in some configurations.
- One-click electronic ignition — Safe, reliable piezoelectric automatic ignition system for instant, convenient lighting without matches or lighters.
- Adjustable flame and temperature — Simple dial control allows precise tuning of flame intensity and heat level, with a maximum in-air flame temperature of approximately 3,730°F (though typical operating flame reaches up to 2,400°F / 1,300°C).
- 360° swivel flame guard / rotating hand protector — Patented design provides easy rotation for hands-free operation, better ergonomics, and enhanced safety by shielding the user from heat and wind.
- Wind-resistant performance — Delivers a stable, powerful flame even in outdoor or breezy conditions.
- Durable, ergonomic construction — Tough body built with high-quality, heat-resistant components for long-lasting reliability and comfortable grip during extended use.
- Compact dimensions — Length: 5.5 in. (138 mm); Width: 1.8 in. (45 mm) for easy handling and storage.
Benefits and Ideal Uses: This professional-grade torch head excels in high-heat tasks requiring intense, focused power without the limitations of butane refillables. It's perfect for:
- Brazing, soldering, or welding in plumbing, HVAC, automotive, or metalworking.
- Heat-shrinking heavy-duty tubing or sleeves.
- Paint stripping, thawing frozen pipes, or loosening rusted fittings.
- Culinary applications like crème brûlée or searing (with proper MAP/Pro fuel).
- General fabrication, roofing, jewelry making, or outdoor repairs demanding maximum flame strength.
Note: Fuel canister not included—screws onto standard MAP/Pro or propane cylinders (14.1 oz typical). Always use in well-ventilated areas, follow gas safety protocols, and avoid indoor use with MAP/Pro due to higher heat output.
Priced affordably, the PT-600W represents Iroda's commitment to professional-grade butane/ gas torch technology—100% made in Taiwan with rigorous quality testing. Pair it with other Iroda tools for a complete high-performance setup. Wear appropriate PPE, maintain safe distances, and adhere to all manufacturer safety guidelines when handling high-temperature flammable gases.

MAP-Pro Gas vs Propane:
1. Composition:
- MAP/Pro Gas (MAPP substitute): MAP/Pro is a modern replacement for the original MAPP gas (methylacetylene-propadiene propane). The current MAP/Pro gas is a mixture of propylene and propane. It is designed to perform similarly to MAPP gas but with slightly different properties.
- Propane Gas: Propane (C₃H₈) is a hydrocarbon gas that is commonly used for heating, cooking, and fuel purposes. It is a byproduct of natural gas processing and petroleum refining.
2. Temperature:
- MAP/Pro Gas: Burns at a higher temperature compared to propane. MAP/Pro burns at around 3,730°F (2,055°C) in air.
- Propane Gas: Burns at a slightly lower temperature, around 3,600°F (1,980°C) in air.
3. Performance:
- MAP/Pro Gas: Because it burns hotter, MAP/Pro is better suited for applications requiring high heat, such as brazing, soldering large pipes, or working with metals. Its higher flame temperature allows for quicker heating and more efficient work with thicker metals.
- Propane Gas: Propane is more commonly used for general heating, cooking, or light soldering. It doesn't provide as high a flame temperature, making it less ideal for industrial metalworking, but it's sufficient for everyday tasks like grilling or basic plumbing.
4. Availability and Cost:
- MAP/Pro Gas: Typically more expensive than propane, and it's usually sold in smaller yellow cylinders, often found in hardware or specialty stores.
- Propane Gas: Widely available and cheaper, often sold in various sizes from small camping canisters to large tanks for home heating or grilling.
5. Applications:
- MAP/Pro Gas: Used in professional plumbing, metalworking, and HVAC tasks where higher heat is necessary, such as soldering or brazing metal pipes and fittings.
- Propane Gas: Commonly used for outdoor grills, portable stoves, home heating, and camping. It's also used in some plumbing applications, but only where lower temperatures are sufficient.
6. Safety:
- MAP/Pro Gas: Like propane, MAP/Pro gas is flammable and should be handled with caution, but its higher burning temperature means that it requires more care in high-heat applications.
- Propane Gas: Considered relatively safe for everyday use but still needs proper handling, especially in confined spaces to avoid gas leaks.
Summary:
- MAP/Pro Gas is hotter and more suited for professional or industrial applications.
- Propane Gas is less expensive and more widely used for common, everyday tasks like grilling and heating.
