OVERVIEW

Optimize Your Plasma Cutting with the ESAB PT37 Swirl Baffle

The ESAB PT37 Swirl Baffle 100 Amp (0558004870) is a critical component for professionals utilizing ESAB's high-performance plasma cutting systems. Designed specifically for the PT-37 and PT-38 series torches, this gas baffle plays a pivotal role in the plasma generation process. By precisely controlling the flow and rotation of the plasma gas, it creates the necessary vortex to constrict the arc, resulting in higher energy density and cleaner cuts. For industrial applications requiring 90 to 100 Amps of power, maintaining the integrity of your swirl baffle is essential for consistent production quality.

Genuine OEM Quality and Reliability

When it comes to plasma consumables, precision is non-negotiable. This genuine ESAB part is manufactured to exact tolerances, ensuring a perfect seal and alignment within the torch head. Unlike aftermarket alternatives that may suffer from material inconsistencies, the ESAB 0558004870 baffle is built from high-grade, heat-resistant materials capable of withstanding the extreme thermal cycles of heavy-duty cutting. Using authentic OEM parts helps prevent premature failure of other torch components, such as the electrode and nozzle, by ensuring the cooling gas flows exactly as the engineers intended.

Performance and Compatibility

This swirl baffle is rated for 100 Amp output, making it suitable for demanding fabrication tasks. It effectively manages the gas dynamics required to cut through thick plates of mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. A worn or damaged baffle can lead to an unstable arc, increased bevel angles, and rapid consumable wear. By replacing your baffle with this factory-original part, you restore your system's ability to deliver vertical edges and smooth finishes. It is directly compatible with ESAB PT-37 and PT-38 torches, providing a seamless maintenance solution for your equipment.

FAQ

This swirl baffle (0558004870) is designed for use with ESAB PT-37 and PT-38 plasma cutting torches.

This baffle is rated for operation at 90 to 100 Amps.

Inspect the baffle for cracks, deformation, or clogged gas ports. If the arc becomes unstable or consumable life decreases significantly, it may be time to replace the baffle.

Yes, this is a genuine ESAB OEM part, ensuring compatibility and performance standards are met.

The swirl baffle controls the flow of the plasma gas, creating a vortex that centers and constricts the arc for precise cutting and cooling of the electrode.

This specific part number is optimized for 90-100 Amp cutting. For lower amperages, check your torch manual as a different baffle or nozzle setup might be required for optimal results.

Typically, the swirl baffle is sold as a standalone plastic/ceramic component. Check the specific package contents, but O-rings are often sold separately or included in maintenance kits.
