220672 - Hypertherm Powermax 45 Gouging Nozzle (5-Pack)

Hypertherm 220672 Gouging Nozzle Overview

The Hypertherm 220672 Gouging Nozzle is a specialized plasma consumable engineered specifically for the Powermax 45 plasma cutting system. Designed to work seamlessly with T45v hand torches and T45m machine torches, this nozzle transforms the standard cutting capabilities of the Powermax 45 into a powerful gouging tool. Operating within an amperage range of 15 A to 45 A, it allows operators to effectively remove welds, sever tack welds, and prepare surfaces without the need for carbon arc gouging or mechanical grinding.

Hypertherm utilizes patented technology in the manufacturing of these nozzles to ensure consistent performance and durability. The design focuses on constricting the plasma arc to produce a wider, softer stream ideal for washing away molten metal rather than piercing it. This results in superior control over the gouge profile, allowing for precise metal removal with minimal heat input into the base material. The 220672 nozzle is essential for applications requiring the removal of defects, cracks, or old welds, providing a clean surface that often requires little to no secondary preparation before re-welding.

One of the primary technical advantages of this genuine Hypertherm consumable is its longevity. Engineered to withstand the intense heat and blowback associated with gouging applications, these nozzles offer dramatically longer consumable life compared to generic alternatives. This durability translates directly to lower operating costs and higher productivity, as operators spend less time changing out worn parts. The nozzle is sold in a convenient pack of five, ensuring that facilities have adequate stock for continuous operation.

By optimizing the gas flow and arc characteristics, the 220672 nozzle enables faster gouging speeds and greater thickness capabilities. It effectively reduces the time required for surface corrections and demolition work. Whether used in automotive repair, structural steel fabrication, or general maintenance, this nozzle ensures that the Powermax 45 system delivers maximum versatility and efficiency.
