0558006020 - ESAB PT-36 Plasma Nozzle 2.0mm (.080) - 5 Pack

Precision Engineering for the PT-36 System

The ESAB Nozzle 2.0mm (.080) is a critical component designed specifically for the PT-36 plasma cutting torch. Identified by part number 0558006020, this nozzle represents the high standard of engineering expected from ESAB's genuine consumables. In plasma cutting, the nozzle plays a pivotal role by constricting the plasma arc and focusing the gas flow to achieve a high-energy density stream capable of cutting through conductive metals with speed and precision. This specific nozzle features a 2.0mm orifice, also referenced as .080 inches, which is calibrated for specific amperage ranges and material thicknesses within the PT-36 operating parameters.

Manufactured in the United States, these nozzles are built from high-quality copper alloys that provide excellent thermal conductivity. This is essential for managing the intense heat generated during the plasma process, thereby extending the lifespan of the consumable and preventing premature failure. The geometry of the nozzle bore is machined to tight tolerances to ensure a symmetric and stable arc. Deviations in bore geometry, often found in non-OEM generic replacements, can lead to beveled cuts, excessive dross, and unstable arc performance. By choosing genuine ESAB parts, operators ensure that their mechanized cutting systems maintain the accuracy required for industrial fabrication.

This product is supplied in a package of five, recognizing the consumable nature of plasma nozzles in high-production environments. Regular inspection and replacement of the nozzle are necessary to maintain cut quality. A worn nozzle with an ovalized or eroded orifice will degrade cut angularity and edge finish. The ESAB 0558006020 ensures that facilities using the PT-36 torch can maintain peak operational efficiency with reliable, consistent consumables.
