OVERVIEW

Reliable Gas Distribution for Heavy-Duty Plasma Cutting

The ESAB 24-Slot Diffuser is a critical consumable designed specifically for the PT-36R plasma torch, a powerhouse in the industrial cutting sector. When operating at high amperages ranging from 100A to 360A, the management of gas flow becomes paramount to maintaining both the quality of the cut and the longevity of the torch components. This diffuser features a precision-engineered 24-slot configuration that ensures shielding gas is distributed evenly around the plasma arc. This uniform distribution helps to constrict the arc, providing a tighter, more focused beam that delivers cleaner cuts with less dross.

In high-production environments, downtime is costly. The PT-36R torch is often used in automated systems where reliability is non-negotiable. A worn or clogged diffuser can lead to erratic arc behavior, poor cut angularity, and accelerated wear of the electrode and nozzle. By replacing your diffuser regularly with genuine ESAB parts, you ensure that your equipment operates at peak efficiency. This product comes in a convenient package of five, allowing fabrication shops and industrial facilities to keep essential spares on hand, minimizing interruptions to production schedules.

Manufactured in the United States, these diffusers meet ESAB's rigorous quality standards. Whether you are cutting thick mild steel, stainless steel, or aluminum, the 24-slot design provides the necessary gas dynamics to handle the intense heat and pressure of 360-amp operations. Trust in genuine ESAB consumables to protect your investment in high-end plasma cutting machinery and to deliver the consistent results your projects demand.
