I have a couple of more, j27 J50 sized handles and more tips

And, what the heck is a type 22 tip - fits the above torches, but it is a
copper tip (not chrome colored) with aluminum fins for about 1/2 the
length - any clues?

thanks

Bill,

A type 22 tip is for a Victor J-40 jeweler's torch. The J-40 body is
only 3.5" long, so that aluminum "handle" on the Type 22 tip, it to
provide additional area to hold on to the torch when in use.
