On the market there are plenty of machines for cutting of steel via a mixture of oxygen and flammable gases. Various manufacturers provide several types of torches, cutting nozzles and other equipment in their product range. Cutting nozzles are a component that significantly affects quality of cutting based in set parameters. However, data from catalogues and manuals by manufacturers on cutting parameters of nozzles are rarely in use in real conditions. That is why optimum cutting conditions for cutting via nozzles A-SD made by RHONA were tested and final results were compared with those in the catalogue for a proper use in practice.
