192203 - Miller ICE-40/50/55 Plasma Gouging Shield Deflector

Miller 192203 Gouging Shield for ICE Series Torches

The Miller 192203 Gouging Shield is a critical consumable designed for use with Miller's ICE-40C, ICE-40T, ICE-50C, and ICE-55C plasma cutting torches. Engineered specifically for plasma gouging applications, this shield protects the inner consumables—such as the nozzle and electrode—from the intense heat and molten metal spray generated during the gouging process. Unlike standard cutting shields, the gouging shield is shaped to allow the arc to spread wider, facilitating the removal of metal for weld preparation or defect removal.

Using genuine Miller Electric parts ensures that your equipment operates at peak efficiency. This OEM shield provides the correct airflow dynamics required to blow molten metal away from the groove effectively. It is constructed from high-quality, heat-resistant materials that withstand the harsh environment of industrial plasma gouging. Regular inspection and replacement of the shield are recommended to maintain cut quality and prevent damage to the torch head.

Whether you are removing old welds, preparing plates for welding, or correcting defects, the 192203 shield is an essential component for your Miller plasma system. Its precise fitment guarantees safety and performance, ensuring that the plasma arc remains stable and controlled throughout the operation.
