The Thermal Dynamics 9-6017 Shield Cup Assembly is a critical consumable component designed for a broad range of Thermal Dynamics plasma cutting torches. Known as a "Castle" or crenellated shield cup, this part features a distinct notched edge that differentiates it from standard smooth cups. This design is specifically engineered to facilitate drag cutting, a technique where the operator rests the torch tip directly on the metal workpiece. The castellations (notches) on the rim of the cup allow plasma gas and shield gas to escape efficiently even when the cup is flush against the plate, preventing the torch from snuffing out and ensuring a stable arc.
This genuine OEM part ensures perfect compatibility and performance with Thermal Dynamics PCH and PCM series torches, including models such as the PCH-25, PCH-38, PCH-40, PCH-51, PCH-60, PCH-62, PCH-75, PCH-76, PCH-80, PCH-100, and PCH-102. Using genuine Thermal Dynamics consumables is essential for maintaining the longevity of your torch head and achieving the best possible cut quality. The 9-6017 is constructed from high-heat resistant materials to withstand the intense thermal environment of plasma cutting and resist spatter adhesion.
Whether you are performing manual fabrication, repair work, or scrapping, the ability to drag cut provided by this shield cup significantly simplifies the cutting process. It eliminates the need for the operator to maintain a precise standoff distance manually, which can be difficult in tight spaces or for less experienced users. By stabilizing the torch against the work, cut lines become straighter and the operation becomes less physically taxing.
