Monument/Rothenberger torch compatibility

[Gouldy]

Hi guys, I have a monument 3450 torch with a turbine tip but want a pencil tip for tight corners and smaller pipes etc. Are the rothenberger ones compatible? Or do monument do one? Also, do I need to change the jet if I swap the tip?

Failing that, where can I get a Bernzomatic TS7000?

Monument sell a pencil tip but not for the 3450, wasn't the Benzo TS7000 a rebadged Rothenberger?

only place to get a ts7000 is the usa via ebay or usa websites normally, they were sold in b and q for a few years.

the rothenbergers are rebadged Bernz's but have a slight different configuration to the ts7000. if you have a superfire 2 you can convert it to a ts7000 with a nozzle and nipple kit like this below.

Is the Bullfinch nozzle the same as that pencil nozzle?

 

[AWheating]

not sure but i would think not.

So if I've got this right, the Rothenberger Super-Fire 2 is actually a rebranded Bernzomatic TS8000. + The only difference between a TS7000 and a TS8000 is the burner tip and possibly the jet?

7000:

Is this correct?

almost all rottenberger tools are rebranded from other manufacturers.

bernzomatic make loads of different torches in the usa, all really good. the rottenberger torch my mate brought with the hose had its rottenberger sticker fall off and had a benzomatic badge underneath LOL
