Roofing Gas Burner AWTools AW ROOFING GAS BURNER 50MM – 50 mm nozzle diameter

AWTools AW ROOFING GAS BURNER 50MM is a handheld roofing gas burner with a 50 mm nozzle diameter designed for heating and torching roofing materials such as bitumen membranes and tar. The tool connects to standard propane or butane gas canisters and delivers a concentrated, adjustable flame suitable for installation, repair and softening of roofing compounds. The burner’s 50 mm nozzle produces a broad, uniform heat pattern for efficient surface coverage while remaining compact enough for manual handling during detailed work.

Advantages

The 50 mm nozzle provides consistent heat distribution across a wider area compared with narrow-tipped burners, reducing the number of passes required when torching roofing membranes. The handheld design enables precise positioning and angle control, and compatibility with common gas canisters simplifies fuel supply and replacement on site. The burner is built for professional use with materials and geometry that prioritize heat transfer efficiency and user control.

Suitable for

• Heating and torching bitumen membranes during roof installation
• Repairing and sealing seams, overlaps and damaged roof areas
• Softening tar and other roofing compounds for shaping or removal
• General maintenance tasks on flat and low-slope roofs

Key specifications

• Nozzle diameter: 50 mm for broad heat distribution
• Fuel type: compatible with propane and butane gas canisters
• Design: handheld torch body for manual operation and precise aiming
• Flame control: adjustable regulator for variable heat output
• Typical use: heating and torching of roofing membranes, tar and bitumen products

How to use

Attach the burner securely to a compatible gas canister or a regulated propane supply using the manufacturer-recommended connection. Ignite the burner following standard gas torch lighting procedures and adjust the flame control to obtain the desired heat intensity and pattern. Hold the burner at a consistent distance from the work surface and move at a steady pace to achieve even heating of bitumen membranes or tar. After use, close the gas supply, allow the burner to cool, and store it in a dry, ventilated area.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as heat-resistant gloves, eye protection and flame-retardant clothing. Ensure adequate ventilation and keep flammable materials away from the work area. Verify compatibility of gas canisters and connections before operation and follow local regulations regarding the use of gas torches on roofing sites.
