BernzomaticBasic Use UL2317 Brass Pencil Flame Propane Torch Head (UL2317 Torch)

Just what I needed Screwed on to the propane canister, sealed well, and lit on the first try.

A good, old-time torch head replacement.

The media could not be loaded. This review is of BernzOmatic Model UL2317 Brass Pencil Flame Torch Head.Works perfectly. Lights easily, stays lit, allows tilt angle of at least 135° even though the instructions and packaging note that it’s for “upright” use. See video.In the video I used a 16 oz propane container, about 1/3 full and at 50°F. It is entirely plausible that your performance while tilted may vary if your canister has a different fullness or is at a different temperature. I do remember my previous torch (I’m sure it was a BernzOmatic, might have been this exact model) under certain conditions surging when tilted, by which I mean a large increase in flame. I don’t remember it ever going out due to tilting. It’s been many years, but if I had to guess I’d say it was most pronounced when the temperature was colder and the canister less full.I learned a long time ago that lighting a torch with a match is easiest if you open the valve as little as possible, and if it’s really cold, heat the tip with the match for a bit before you open the valve. I did not preheat the tip for this test.

Well made. Using it a lot.Recommend!

been using it for almost 2 years and it’s very safe has great speed the flame adjustment isn’t to hard or easy to use.

Won't light and by the time you do get it to light it won't adjust and just shuts off. Amazon sent me a replacement same garbage returning thatvone too. Don't waste your time or money on this product

Does what it should. A classic design, for good reason.

You can use this for melting jewelry, soldering larger items, baking, searing and many more things! I don't use it much because you have to connect it to the Gas but it's a nice tool to have just in case I want to! Works really well and would buy from this company again!
