2118700 - ESAB 50A Plasma Nozzle for PT-23/PT-27 Torches

Precision 50A Plasma Cutting Nozzle

The ESAB 2118700 is a high-performance 50 Amp nozzle engineered specifically for the ESAB PT-23, PT-27, and PT-20AM plasma cutting torches. As a critical component in the plasma generation process, this nozzle is responsible for constricting the plasma arc and focusing the gas flow to achieve a high-density energy stream. Manufactured to tight tolerances, it ensures concentricity between the electrode and the nozzle orifice, which is vital for maintaining a straight cut and maximizing consumable life.

Constructed from high-grade copper, the 2118700 nozzle offers excellent thermal conductivity, effectively dissipating the intense heat generated during the cutting process. This thermal management helps prevent premature erosion of the orifice, maintaining cut quality over a longer service life. This specific nozzle is rated for 50 Amps, making it the standard choice for users of ESAB PCM-875, PCM-1125, and PowerCut series machines operating at this amperage range. Using genuine ESAB consumables ensures that your equipment operates within its design parameters, protecting the torch head from damage caused by ill-fitting aftermarket parts.

Regular inspection and replacement of the nozzle are recommended to prevent cut quality degradation. A worn orifice can lead to beveled edges, excessive dross, and unstable arcs. By utilizing the ESAB 2118700, operators can ensure consistent ionization and gas velocity, resulting in clean, professional cuts on mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum.
