Uniweld MTF-5 Cap'n Hook 5-Flame Tip — Precision Copper Brazing with Wraparound Heat

Overview

Meet the MTF-5 Cap'n Hook 5-Flame Tip from Uniweld, a purpose-built accessory designed for copper brazing projects. The 40-degree flame angle concentrates heat on the copper tubing while steering it away from nearby components, helping reduce the risk of accidental scorching. The tip delivers 100% wraparound heat for even distribution along the tube, supporting clean, consistent joints and predictable workflow.

What makes it effective

• Five-flame head with full wraparound heat provides uniform heating along copper runs.
• Capable of brazing up to 1 inch copper tubing for a wide range of applications.
• Hook tip crafted from stainless steel with brass mixer and nut for durability and resilience against bending.
• Made in the USA and 100% flame tested for reliable performance in demanding environments.
• Designed to fit Uniweld welding handles Part# 71 or Part# WH550 for quick, tool-free setup.

Real-world use scenarios

In HVAC, plumbing, and refrigeration work, tight spaces demand precise heat control. The Cap'n Hook’s 40-degree angle and wraparound heat help focus warmth where it’s needed, reducing the chance of affecting nearby components.

• HVAC line-set brazing where heat should stay on copper tubing and away from fittings.
• Cramped installations where a large torch footprint could risk adjacent parts.
• Small-diameter runs and OEM installations that require clean, consistent joints.

Quality and compatibility

The tool features a robust stainless steel elbow, brass mixer and nut, and two O-ring seals so the tip nut can be tightened by hand for quick setup. It is compatible with Uniweld handles Part# 71 or WH550, and it is designed to braze copper up to 1 inch in diameter.

Why choose Uniweld
