770497 - Hobart 770497 Consumable Kit for AirForce 250Ci HP-25 Torch

Genuine Hobart 770497 Consumable Kit for AirForce 250Ci

The Hobart 770497 Cup, Swirl Ring, and O-Ring Kit is a specialized consumable package designed exclusively for the Hobart AirForce 250Ci plasma cutter equipped with the HP-25 plasma torch. This kit provides the essential components required to maintain the front-end assembly of your plasma torch, ensuring optimal gas flow and arc stability during cutting operations. As genuine Hobart parts, these components are manufactured to precise tolerances, guaranteeing a perfect fit and reliable performance that aftermarket alternatives cannot match.

The kit includes three critical parts: a plasma shield cup, a swirl ring, and an O-ring. The shield cup protects the internal consumables and directs the shielding gas flow, while the swirl ring is responsible for swirling the gas around the electrode to constrict the arc and cool the torch. The O-ring ensures a gas-tight seal, preventing leaks that could compromise cut quality or damage the torch head. Regular inspection and replacement of these parts are vital for maintaining the efficiency of your AirForce 250Ci unit.

Over time, the extreme heat and debris generated during plasma cutting can degrade these components. A worn swirl ring can cause an irregular arc, while a damaged shield cup may lead to poor cut edges. By replacing these items simultaneously with the 770497 kit, operators can restore their machine's cutting capacity to factory standards. This kit is specifically engineered for the HP-25 torch found on the AirForce 250Ci and is not compatible with other Hobart plasma cutter models.

Investing in the Hobart 770497 kit ensures that your equipment remains in peak condition, minimizing downtime and maximizing the lifespan of your torch. Whether you are performing automotive repairs, HVAC work, or general metal fabrication, having a fresh set of consumables on hand is essential for consistent, high-quality results.
