0558003616 - ESAB PT-21AMX Machine Torch 25ft with Rack

Precision Mechanized Cutting Solution

The ESAB PT-21AMX (0558003616) is a high-performance mechanized plasma torch engineered for industrial automation and precision cutting applications. Designed specifically for integration with ESAB's PowerCut series plasma cutting power sources, this torch assembly provides the reliability and consistency required for high-duty cycle manufacturing environments. The unit features a 25-foot lead assembly, offering significant reach for gantry systems, track burners, and pipe cutting modules without compromising voltage stability or arc quality.

A defining feature of the PT-21AMX is its integrated rack mounting system. The torch barrel is machined with a gear rack that interfaces seamlessly with standard rack-and-pinion torch lifters. This design allows for micro-adjustments in torch height, which is critical for maintaining the optimal standoff distance during the piercing and cutting phases. Proper standoff distance directly correlates to consumable life and cut edge angularity; thus, the rigid rack mount ensures that the torch remains stable even during high-speed traverses or rapid direction changes common in CNC operations.

The torch utilizes ESAB's advanced air-cooling technology to manage thermal loads effectively, extending the duty cycle and protecting internal components from heat saturation. The consumable ecosystem for the PT-21 series is designed for versatility, allowing operators to switch between gouging, drag cutting (if adapted), and precision standoff cutting configurations. The 25-foot cable assembly is encased in a durable, abrasion-resistant sheath that protects the power conductor, pilot arc wire, and gas hose from hot sparks, slag, and the rough edges of cutting tables. For facility managers and automation engineers, the PT-21AMX represents a direct OEM replacement that ensures continued compliance with original machine specifications and performance standards.
