The Blazer GT8000 Big Shot butane torch is a refillable, gas
torch with a brass frame nozzle, and attachable base. The torch
creates a precise flame, emitting from a nozzle head, allowing
direct heat application to an object. It is used for detailed
purposes such as brazing, plumbing, soldering, jewelry making,
and culinary, dental and lab applications.
The GT8000 has an anti-flare, brass frame nozzle, for safety and
flame control. Its design is intended for a low blow-out rate,
when held in various positions, or where access is difficult, or
space is limited. Its head is angled and it comes with an
attachable, tabletop base for hands-free work. It features a
gas-flow adjustment dial to control flame length.
The torch houses a piezoelectric ignition system, which is based
on a pressurized molecular reaction, and requires no electrical
connection. Piezoelectric energy occurs when the trigger is
activated, releasing a small, spring-loaded internal hammer that
strikes a crystal, producing a spark and resulting in gas flame
ignition.
With a maximum flame temperature of 2,500 degrees F, the GT8000
has a continuous burn time of approximately 35 minutes, at
maximum fuel volume, and has a 35-gram gas capacity. The torch
has an angled head, and its flame range is 1.25 to 5.0 inches. It
has a safety component that offers manual lock of the ignition,
when not in use. It measures 7.5 (l) x 5.25 (w) x 2.0 (d) inches,
weighs 12.0 ounces and has a black body finish. This product is
intended strictly for use in professional and industrial
environments. In accordance with federal regulations, home use of
this product is prohibited.
