22027 - ESAB PT-19 50A Plasma Nozzle Base (5-Pack)

Precision Engineering for PT-19 Plasma Systems

The ESAB 22027 Nozzle Base is a specialized consumable component engineered exclusively for the PT-19 plasma cutting torch. Designed to operate effectively at currents up to 50 Amps, this nozzle base is critical for maintaining the structural integrity and aerodynamic performance of the torch head assembly. In the high-temperature environment of plasma cutting, where ionized gas reaches extreme velocities, the nozzle base serves as the primary anchor for the nozzle tip, ensuring concentricity with the electrode. This precise alignment is essential for generating a focused, high-density plasma arc capable of producing clean, dross-free cuts on conductive metals.

Manufactured to ESAB's stringent OEM specifications, the 22027 Nozzle Base is built from durable, heat-resistant materials capable of withstanding the thermal cycling inherent in industrial cutting operations. Inferior or worn nozzle bases can lead to gas turbulence, electrode misalignment, and premature failure of downstream consumables. By utilizing genuine ESAB parts, operators ensure that the shielding gas and plasma gas flows are directed exactly as intended by the torch designers. This results in improved arc stability, reduced bevel angles on cut edges, and overall superior process control.

This product is supplied as a pack of 5, addressing the needs of high-volume fabrication environments where equipment availability is paramount. Routine inspection of the torch head often reveals wear on the nozzle base threads or heat damage to the seating surfaces. Having a replacement pack on hand allows maintenance personnel to swap out degraded components immediately, preventing minor consumable issues from escalating into costly torch body damage. The 50A rating makes this base suitable for a variety of light to medium-duty cutting applications, including HVAC ductwork, automotive body repair, and general light fabrication.

The ESAB 22027 integrates seamlessly with the PT-19's consumable stack. It acts not only as a mechanical retainer but also plays a role in the electrical isolation and gas distribution logic of the torch. When troubleshooting cut quality issues—such as excessive dross or an unstable arc—the condition of the nozzle base is often an overlooked variable. Replacing this component at regular intervals, or whenever physical damage is observed, restores the torch to its factory performance levels. Trust in ESAB's legacy of welding and cutting innovation to provide parts that deliver consistent results, shift after shift.
