OVERVIEW

Genuine ESAB PT-27 Heat Shield Overview

The ESAB PT-27 Heat Shield (Part Number 21616) is a critical consumable component designed specifically for the PT-27 Plasmarc™ torch system. Engineered to withstand the intense thermal dynamics of plasma cutting, this heat shield serves as the first line of defense for your torch's front-end parts. It is rated for operation within the 50 to 80 Amp current range, making it suitable for a variety of industrial cutting applications where precision and durability are paramount.

At Josef Gas, we understand that using genuine OEM parts is essential for maintaining the integrity of your equipment. This heat shield is manufactured to ESAB's exacting standards, ensuring a perfect fit onto the PT-27 torch body. It is compatible with both Air and Nitrogen plasma gases, offering flexibility depending on your specific material and cutting requirements. By effectively channeling the shielding gas and protecting the inner nozzle from molten metal spatter, this component helps maintain a stable arc and prolongs the service life of your electrode and nozzle.

Regular inspection and replacement of the heat shield are vital for optimal performance. A damaged or clogged shield can lead to poor cut quality, double arcing, or even damage to the torch head. This replacement part (21616) restores your torch to factory specifications, ensuring consistent gas flow and electrical isolation. Whether you are fabricating in a shop or performing maintenance in the field, relying on authentic ESAB consumables guarantees that your PT-27 torch operates safely and efficiently.
