0559351053 - ESAB PT-36 100A Oxygen Plasma Nozzle

Precision Engineering for Automated Plasma Cutting

The ESAB 0559351053 is a high-performance 100A Cutting Tip designed specifically for mild steel applications. Engineered for the rigorous demands of industrial automation, this consumable is typically utilized with the ESAB PT-36 plasma torch found on m3 Plasma systems. As a critical component in the plasma arc generation process, this nozzle is responsible for constricting the plasma gas—typically Oxygen for mild steel—into a focused, high-energy stream capable of severing thick plate with precision.

Manufactured to tight tolerances, the 0559351053 ensures concentricity between the electrode and the nozzle orifice. This alignment is vital for maintaining a straight cut edge and minimizing angular deviation (bevel) on the finished part. The use of high-purity copper alloys in its construction facilitates rapid heat dissipation, preventing the nozzle from overheating during long duty cycles. This thermal management is essential for preserving the integrity of the orifice shape over time, directly impacting the lifespan of the consumable and the consistency of production quality.

In automated environments, reliability is paramount. Using genuine ESAB consumables like this 100A tip ensures that your system operates within its specified parameters. Third-party alternatives often lack the precise internal geometry required to stabilize the gas flow, leading to premature failure or poor cut quality. By choosing the OEM specification, operators can expect predictable wear rates, allowing for scheduled maintenance rather than unplanned downtime.

This tip is optimized for the 100 Amp output range. Running the consumable at its rated amperage ensures the arc density is sufficient to clear molten material (dross) from the kerf while maintaining a smooth cut face. It is an essential stock item for fabrication shops processing mild steel plate in high-volume environments.
