Major Burner with Pre-Mix ..... $448.00  Part# BUMAJ-P
Major Burner with Pre-Mix and Block ..... $448.00  Part# BUMAJ-PB
 

The Major Burner now comes in six versions. Like all the versions, the original model Major Burner (BUMAJ) is a double burner. It has a Minor Burner that is mounted just above a large 64 fuel port burner. Each is controlled separately and not at the same time. The Major Burner with Mega Minor model (BUMAJ-M) differs in that instead of using a Minor Burner on top, there is a Mega Minor. The Major Burner with Pre-Mix model (BUMAJ-P) differs in that instead of using a Minor Burner on top, there is a Pre-Mix burner. The pre-mix burner comes with two different interchangeable tips and an adapter which will allow you to use any of the National brand of pre-mix tips.

The Major Burners that have a Block differ from the above descriptions in that the large 64 fuel port bottom burner has 16 of its ports blocked out in the center section leaving 48 holes. The reason for this is that it allows the flame to have about the same width as the 64 fuel port version while having a cleaner flame quality, and cleaner and cooler burner face at a flame length that most everyone uses on the regular 64 hole Major Burners. Uses ¼" BB or 3/8" BB Hose Set. The larger 3/8" BB Hose Set is recommended.

The Red Max also tends to require less cleaning. Uses ¼" BB or 3/8" BB Hose Set. The larger 3/8" BB Hose Set is recommended.
