Abstract: An apparatus housing for a cutting system for radially projecting a flow of heated gas to cut from an internal surface through an external surface of a conduit. The cutting system adapted to be positioned within the conduit comprising an igniter, an extension housing, and an apparatus housing. The apparatus housing has a movable sleeve section and a nozzle assembly. The nozzle assembly comprises a conical head with through holes for evenly dispersing the flow of heated gas. A retainer abuts a diverter. The diverter imposes a 90-degree bend in the direction of the flow of the heated gas to cause the flow of heated gas to move the sleeve section away from the apparatus housing to expose a circumferential diverter gap through which the flow of heated gas projects radially to perform the cutting function. A spindle provides structure for the nozzle assembly and maintains the position of the nozzle assembly in the apparatus housing.

Abstract: What is presented is a combustible pellet for creating heated gas. The combustible pellet is insertable into a cutting apparatus or a high power igniter or both. The combustible pellet is compacted to be resistant to mechanical damage and is resistant to unintentional ignition. The combustible pellet is ignitable without a loose powdered form of combustible material when the combustible pellet is in the cutting apparatus or the high power igniter.

Abstract: What is presented is a high power igniter that releasably secures to a cutting apparatus that is used for radially projecting a flow of heated gas to cut from an internal surface through an external surface of a conduit used for oil, gas, mining, and underwater pressure sealed tool applications. The high power igniter comprises an igniter housing adapted to be positioned in the conduit. The igniter housing comprises a containment sub and a nozzle sub that releasably secure to each other. The nozzle sub for directing the flow of the heated gas toward the cutting apparatus and releasably securing to the cutting apparatus. A high wattage heater in the igniter housing comprises a metal magnalium thermite pellet insertable into the igniter housing for creating the flow of heated gas when the high power igniter is in use and a pellet igniting device.

Abstract: What is presented is a high power igniter comprising an igniter housing adapted to be positioned in a conduit. The igniter housing comprises a containment sub and a nozzle sub that releasably secure to each other. A high wattage heater located in the igniter housing comprises a combustible pellet insertable into the igniter housing for creating a flow of heated gas when the combustible pellet is ignited with a pellet igniting device while the high power igniter is in use. The high power igniter is free from a loose powdered form of combustible material when the combustible pellet is in the igniter housing. The nozzle sub directs the flow of heated gas in the system.
