The ESAB 19491 50A Nozzle is a critical consumable component designed for the PT-23 and PT-27 series plasma torches. In the plasma cutting process, the nozzle plays a pivotal role in constricting the plasma arc and focusing the high-velocity gas stream. This specific nozzle is engineered with a precision-drilled orifice optimized for 50-ampere applications, ensuring that the energy density of the arc is maintained for clean, dross-free cuts on conductive metals.
Manufactured from high-grade copper alloy, the 19491 nozzle offers excellent thermal conductivity, allowing it to dissipate the intense heat generated during the plasma process effectively. This thermal management is essential for preventing orifice erosion and extending the service life of the consumable. When the orifice maintains its geometry, the arc remains stable and centered, resulting in superior edge angularity and reduced kerf width.
For industrial operators utilizing ESAB PCM-series power sources equipped with PT-23 or PT-27 torches, using genuine OEM consumables like the 19491 ensures system parameters are met. Deviations in nozzle geometry can lead to double-arcing, poor cut quality, and potential damage to the electrode or torch head. This nozzle is the standard configuration for 50A output settings, balancing cutting speed with cut quality.
