The ESAB Oxweld 4217-1/2 Acetylene Gouging Nozzle (0558005124) is a premium consumable designed for industrial metal preparation and defect removal. Engineered by Oxweld, a brand synonymous with oxy-fuel excellence, this nozzle is part of the 4217 series, specifically tailored for gouging applications using acetylene gas. Unlike standard cutting tips, the 4217 series features a geometry optimized for washing away molten metal to create smooth, U-shaped grooves.
Constructed from a single piece of high-quality copper, this nozzle offers superior thermal conductivity, which is critical for preventing overheating during the intense heat of the gouging process. The internal geometry is precision-machined to ensure a stable preheat flame and a focused cutting oxygen stream that efficiently removes metal. This specific model, size 1/2, is ideal for general-purpose gouging tasks, allowing operators to prepare weld joints or remove old welds with precision and control.
Compatibility is key in industrial environments, and the 4217-1/2 is designed to fit a wide range of Oxweld hand and machine torches, including the popular C-32, C-66, C-77, and C-97 models. By utilizing the oxy-acetylene process, this nozzle provides a quieter and often cleaner alternative to carbon arc gouging, making it suitable for shop environments where noise and fume control are priorities.
