KP2844-8 - Lincoln Electric LC65 Plasma Gouging Nozzles (5-Pack) for Tomahawk 1000

Precision Plasma Gouging with Lincoln Electric KP2844-8

The Lincoln Electric KP2844-8 Gouging Nozzle is a specialized consumable component engineered exclusively for the LC65 Plasma Torch, which is the standard torch supplied with the Tomahawk 1000 plasma cutting system. Unlike standard cutting nozzles that are designed to constrict the plasma arc into a tight, high-velocity stream for severing metal with a narrow kerf, this gouging nozzle is designed with a specific orifice geometry that widens the arc. This broader arc profile allows the operator to wash away molten metal effectively without cutting all the way through the workpiece, making it an essential tool for weld removal, back-gouging, defect repair, and surface preparation.

Manufactured to Lincoln Electric's exacting standards, these nozzles are rated for 60 Amps of output, matching the performance characteristics of the Tomahawk 1000. The nozzle is constructed from high-grade copper alloy to withstand the intense thermal loads generated during the gouging process. Proper airflow management is critical in plasma gouging to ensure that the molten material is ejected cleanly from the groove; the KP2844-8 is designed to work in harmony with the LC65 torch's swirl ring and electrode to optimize gas flow dynamics. This results in a stable, controllable arc that can be used on a wide variety of conductive metals, including mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and copper.

Using genuine OEM consumables like the KP2844-8 is vital for maintaining the longevity of your plasma torch head. Ill-fitting or generic nozzles can cause arc wandering, overheating, and damage to the torch body. This product is supplied as a pack of five, ensuring that professional fabricators and maintenance technicians have an adequate supply on hand for extended operations. Whether used in heavy industrial environments, structural steel fabrication, or automotive restoration, these nozzles provide the consistency and reliability required for high-precision thermal gouging applications.
