    Default Herbert arnold zenit for sale

    Hey Everyone, I am selling my herbert arnold zenit burner 40 mm. Here are some pictures. Please let me know if you have any questions. I'm asking $1600 plus shipping. That includes the blast shield and marver pad. I'm also including the propane reg that is normally sold separately with the torch for $150. Please let me know if you have any questions. There is a very small leak in one of the flanges inside the torch that comes and goes with the outside temp but it does not affect the performance makes the flame pop a little which is common with the herbies anyway. It was like that when I bought it new and I never sent it off to be fixed because it wasn't an issue. This is reflected in the price. I can send a video to anyone who is interested in seeing it being used. The torch probably has less than 300 use hours on it. This torch costs $2500 new.

    oh and the zenit is the new model which has a premix, the old ones are a surface mix. The old style is probabaly more similar to a gtt type centerfire in that it utilizes multiple candles where as the newer one is more like a cc centerfire. only used an old one once but not long enough to know the complete difference.

    the new style isn't premix, it just has a single propane jet inside a doughnut like ring of oxy. both of these you can individually control, so it kind of feels like a premix. the advantage to this set up is a bit more heat up the center, and having a little more specific fuel control. the old style has just 6 tiny oxy ports for a centerfire, none of those are for fuel. the fuel comes out of the next ring and is sandwiched in between the the oxy rings. many people prefer the new style
