0558007050 - ESAB PT-36 Mechanized Plasma Torch Body (No Leads)

Technical Overview of the ESAB PT-36 Torch Body

The ESAB PT-36 Torch (SKU: 0558007050) represents the pinnacle of mechanized plasma cutting technology, designed specifically for integration with ESAB's advanced m3 Plasma systems. This product listing is for the torch body only and does not include the lead set or cable assembly, making it an ideal procurement choice for maintenance departments looking to repair or refurbish existing cutting stations without the expense of a full assembly replacement.

Engineered for high-precision applications, the PT-36 utilizes a sophisticated liquid-cooling architecture. This design effectively manages the thermal loads generated during high-amperage cutting, ensuring consistent performance and extending the lifespan of both the torch and its consumables. The internal geometry of the torch is optimized to deliver a constricted, high-density plasma arc, which results in narrow kerf widths, minimal dross, and square cut edges that often require little to no secondary processing.

The PT-36 is compatible with a wide range of ESAB consumables, allowing for versatility across different material types—including mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum—and various thicknesses. Its robust construction is built to withstand the harsh environment of industrial cutting tables, resisting damage from heat, spatter, and mechanical stress. For systems integrators and maintenance engineers, the modular design of the PT-36 facilitates straightforward installation and alignment, ensuring that the tool center point (TCP) remains consistent for automated accuracy.

By maintaining a stock of replacement torch bodies like the 0558007050, facilities can ensure maximum uptime for their m3 Plasma systems. The unit connects seamlessly to existing ESAB lead sets, preserving the integrity of the coolant and gas delivery systems while restoring the cutting head to factory specifications.
