The ESAB 691446 Nozzle No. 80 is a specialized component engineered for high-performance oxy-fuel cutting applications utilizing Fuel Gas. Designed to integrate seamlessly with C-100 series equipment, this nozzle represents ESAB's commitment to quality and precision in industrial metalworking. When sourcing replacement parts for automated or manual cutting systems, ensuring the correct nozzle specification is critical for maintaining operational efficiency and safety standards.
This nozzle is manufactured from high-grade copper alloys, selected for their excellent thermal conductivity and resistance to the extreme heat cycles inherent in heavy cutting operations. The "No. 80" sizing indicates a specific flow and orifice configuration intended for substantial material thicknesses, making it an essential inventory item for fabrication shops handling heavy plate or structural steel. Unlike generic alternatives, this OEM part ensures that the gas mixing and preheat flame characteristics match the original equipment manufacturer's design parameters, preventing issues such as flashback or irregular cut quality.
Supply chain managers and procurement specialists will appreciate the reliability associated with the ESAB brand. The 691446 nozzle is produced with tight tolerances to ensure a leak-free seal and consistent gas flow. This consistency reduces the frequency of tip replacements and minimizes gas wastage, contributing to a more cost-effective operation. Whether used in a maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) context or a high-volume production environment, this nozzle delivers the durability required to keep production lines moving.
The unit is specifically calibrated for "Fuel Gas," which typically distinguishes it from acetylene-specific nozzles. This design consideration is vital for facilities utilizing propane, natural gas, or propylene, as the preheat port geometry differs significantly to accommodate the different burning velocities of these gases. The C-100 designation ensures fitment with specific torch bodies or machine heads, streamlining the replacement process and eliminating guesswork during maintenance intervals.
