ELICO PROFITECH Quemador de gas AX1-022CGA | Encendido piezoeléctrico, llama ajustable, butano EN417

On a busy workshop bench, a technician reaches for the ELICO PROFITECH AX1-022CGA gas torch to solder a copper joint or heat a seized bolt. With a press of the piezo ignition, a precise, adjustable flame appears—ready for brazing, thawing, or even caramelising a crème brûlée. This torch connects directly to a standard EN417 butane cartridge, delivering up to 1300°C and 1.7 kW of power for demanding tasks.

Why choose it

The AX1-022CGA combines professional performance with everyday convenience. Its anti-flare design lets you work upside down or in tight spaces without flame sputter, while the stepless adjustment gives you everything from a fine point to a broad heating flame. The ergonomic body reduces hand fatigue during longer jobs, and the EN417 connection means you can use widely available butane cartridges.

• Soldering and brazing copper pipes, electrical connections, and jewellery
• Heating and thawing frozen parts, locks, or pipes
• Culinary applications such as caramelising sugar, searing, or melting cheese
• DIY repairs, automotive work, and hobby projects
• Shrink tubing, paint removal, and general heat application

Good to know

With a 227 g butane cartridge, expect approximately 1.5 to 3 hours of operation depending on flame setting. The torch is CE certified and built with a brass nozzle for long life. Always follow safety guidelines: use in well-ventilated areas, keep away from flammable materials, and allow the torch to cool before storage.
