The ESAB 948155 is a complete Torch Body Assembly designed exclusively for the PT-251 plasma cutting torch system. As a critical component of the plasma delivery train, this torch body serves as the central hub for gas distribution, electrical current transfer, and consumable alignment. It is engineered with a 70-degree head angle, which is the standard configuration for manual cutting operations, offering a balance between operator comfort and visibility of the arc.
Manufactured to precise OEM specifications, this assembly ensures that the electrode, swirl baffle, and nozzle align perfectly along the plasma arc axis. Misalignment in these components, often caused by worn or generic torch bodies, can lead to premature consumable failure, double-arcing, and potential damage to the power source. The 948155 features high-grade conductive brass internals encased in heat-resistant, dielectric composite materials that protect the operator from high-voltage circuitry while withstanding the intense thermal radiation generated during heavy-plate gouging or cutting.
This assembly includes the main torch head and the connecting tube structure, ready to be mated with the existing torch handle and cable assembly. It is essential for maintenance personnel to verify the integrity of the torch body during routine inspections; signs of pitting, thread damage, or cracks in the insulation dictate immediate replacement to maintain compliance with safety standards and to ensure the longevity of the plasma power supply.
Compatibility Note: This part is specifically keyed for the PT-251 model. It is not interchangeable with PT-31, PT-36, or other ESAB torch series. Please verify your equipment model number before procurement.
