Trojan Fire Torch: a flared basket of riveted stainless slats, 14 inches tall
The Outdoor Plus Trojan Fire Torch is a hand-crafted stainless steel head with tapered vertical slats and raised rivets. Its flared basket lets flame glow between the slats like a warrior’s brazier. At 14 inches tall and 8 inches across, its heft suits heavy steel or masonry posts by entries or pools. The steel resists heat and weather.
Pick the Original base with a built-in needle valve to adjust flame height, bolted to any 2.5 inch post, or the TOP-Lite base threaded onto a half-inch gas pipe. Order it for natural gas or propane. Prefer plain slats without rivets? See the Basket fire torch. The Trojan fire torch ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
What kind of presence does the Trojan Fire Torch have?
Commanding – the Trojan is one of TOP’s full-bodied 8-inch heads, a solid stainless steel form that holds its flame like a sentinel. Where the slender 3 3/4-inch torches decorate, a rank of Trojans guards: entries, gates, and long drives are its natural posts.
What specs and SKUs apply to the Trojan?
An 8-inch diameter by 14-inch tall head rated at 20,000 BTU, individually hand crafted from high-grade stainless steel. It is offered as the match-lit Original (OPT-TT3M) with built-in needle valve or the TOP-Lite electronic-ignition build (OPT-TCH3SS).
How far apart should Trojan torches stand?
Give them room to command – 10 to 12 feet between posts suits the Trojan’s visual weight along a drive or property edge, and a single pair carries an entry on its own. Tighter spacing is for smaller heads; the Trojan does more with fewer.
What does Trojan installation involve?
The standard TOP mount: a 2 1/2-inch post, hex bolts, and gas at the 3/8-inch flared inlet, run by a licensed installer. The Trojan’s mass looks best on substantial posts – steel or masonry-wrapped – set around 7 feet high.
Match lighting the Trojan – how does it work?
Open the valve on the Original OPT-TT3M, touch a long lighter to the burner, and the Trojan is up; the built-in needle valve then trims the flame precisely. Prefer ignition from a switch? The TOP-Lite OPT-TCH3SS is designed for electronic ignition.
Can the Trojan pair with ground-level fire features?
That layering is the pro move – Trojans overhead, a wide fire bowl at terrace level, so flame reads at two heights. The 8-inch Trojan is big enough to balance a substantial bowl without disappearing above it.
Is the Trojan weatherproof year-round?
Yes – its hand-crafted stainless steel is built for permanent exposure to heat, rain, and cold. Close the gas ahead of storms since downpours can douse the flame, and give the Trojan an occasional wipe-down; that is the entire maintenance program.
