Miller brazing tips

[bluedog225]

Good morning,

I’m new to brazing. I’ve managed a couple of small projects with the tips that were included in my Miller tough cut kit. I’d like to braze some smaller, thinner pieces. And I’d like to have the ability to experiment with larger pieces. All hobby stuff. nothing structural.

I was thinking about getting some more sizes of Miller brazing tips. I can buy them one off from some place like cyber weld at about $50 a piece. Before I pull the trigger on some of these, I wanted to check and see if these were sold as a set for a better price.

Or if I should be looking at other brands that are interchangeable with the Miller stuff. Though I’m inclined to stick with the same manufacturer. Though I’m a little unclear on Miller versus Smith. Maybe they merged? Still learning my way around here.

Thanks

Miller bought smith. As far as I have seen, there was no change in the tips or bodies.

Probably the best way to save some money is to buy a set off eBay.

All of mine have and I just look for good condition. I have replaced the o rings as other than the tip being damaged (which usually can be fixed) the o rings is about the only issue with smith torch tips

Here is an example

The fixed neck tube type ensures stability during use and the unit quantity of three provides convenience for multiple welding tasks. The California Prop 65 Warning does not apply to this product.
