0558008311 - ESAB PT-36 Pilot Arc Cable Assembly, 6 ft

Genuine ESAB Replacement for PT-36 Torches

The ESAB 0558008311 is a specialized Pilot Arc Cable designed exclusively for the PT-36 plasma cutting torch. Measuring 6 feet in length, this cable assembly is a critical component for maintaining the high-performance standards of your automated cutting system. The PT-36 torch is renowned for its precision in heavy-duty industrial applications, often paired with ESAB's m3 Plasma systems. To ensure consistent cut quality and operational uptime, using genuine OEM replacement parts like this pilot arc cable is essential.

Reliable Arc Initiation

The primary function of the pilot arc cable is to carry the initial current required to ionize the plasma gas, creating the conductive path necessary for the main cutting arc to transfer to the workpiece. A damaged or worn pilot arc cable can lead to misfires, hard starting, or unstable arc ignition, which can interrupt production schedules and degrade cut quality. This genuine ESAB cable is engineered with high-dielectric insulation and robust conductors to handle the specific voltage and current requirements of the PT-36 ignition sequence safely and reliably.

Durable Industrial Construction

Industrial plasma cutting environments are harsh, with exposure to heat, metal dust, and mechanical movement. The 0558008311 cable features a durable outer jacket designed to withstand these conditions while maintaining the flexibility required for torch motion. The 6-foot length is optimized for standard torch mounting setups, ensuring there is adequate slack for movement without excessive cabling that could snag or clutter the workspace. By replacing worn cables with this authentic ESAB part, you protect your investment in the PT-36 torch and ensure seamless integration with your existing equipment.

Whether you are performing routine maintenance or troubleshooting ignition issues, this pilot arc cable provides the factory-spec performance you expect from ESAB. It connects securely to the torch head and the power source interface, restoring the electrical integrity of the pilot circuit.
