PC-315 - Broco PC-315 Torch Hand Guard

Broco Prime Cut Hand Shield for Exothermic Torches

The Broco PC-315 Hand Shield is an essential safety component designed specifically for use with the Broco Prime Cut Model 38 exothermic cutting torch. In the high-intensity environment of exothermic cutting, where temperatures can exceed 10,000°F, protecting the operator is paramount. This hand shield is engineered to provide a robust barrier between the operator's gloved hand and the extreme heat, molten slag, and sparks generated during the cutting and gouging process.

Manufactured by Broco, a world leader in exothermic cutting and underwater welding systems, the PC-315 is built to withstand the rigors of heavy industrial use. Whether used in heavy equipment repair, structural demolition, or maintenance operations, this shield ensures that operators can work confidently and safely. It attaches securely to the torch body, offering optimal coverage without interfering with the maneuverability of the tool.

Regular inspection and replacement of the hand shield are recommended to maintain safety standards. As a genuine Broco replacement part, the PC-315 ensures perfect fitment and compatibility with your existing Prime Cut equipment. By deflecting back-spray and radiant heat, it significantly reduces the risk of burns and extends the lifespan of the operator's personal protective equipment (PPE).

Key Applications

• Heavy Equipment Repair: Essential for removing seized pins and repairing buckets where high-heat cutting is required.
• Demolition: Protects operators during the rapid cutting of steel, concrete, and other materials.
• Maintenance & Repair (MRO): Vital for safe operation during general plant maintenance involving exothermic torches.
