34358 - ESAB PT-15XL/19XL Replacement Pilot Arc Lead - 12 ft

Reliable Ignition for Heavy-Duty Plasma Cutting

The ESAB Pilot Arc Cable (Part #34358) is a critical replacement component designed specifically for the high-performance PT-15XL and PT-19XL plasma torches. In industrial plasma cutting systems, the pilot arc cable plays a vital role in the ignition sequence, carrying the initial current required to establish the plasma arc before the main cutting current takes over. A compromised or worn pilot cable can lead to misfires, sputtering starts, or a complete failure to ignite, halting production and causing frustration.

This 12-foot cable assembly is manufactured to ESAB's exacting OEM standards, ensuring it meets the electrical and mechanical requirements of their heavy-duty torch systems. The length is optimized for standard machine setups, providing sufficient slack for torch movement without creating excess clutter. The cable features robust insulation capable of withstanding the harsh conditions typical of metal fabrication environments, including exposure to heat, sparks, and industrial fluids.

Maintaining your plasma torch with genuine parts like the ESAB 34358 ensures the longevity of your equipment. The PT-15XL and PT-19XL are workhorse torches often used in automated and mechanized cutting; keeping the electrical leads in top condition is essential for maintaining the precision and reliability these systems are known for. Whether you are replacing a damaged cable or stocking critical spares to prevent downtime, this pilot arc cable is the correct fit for your ESAB system.
