21-1051 - Thermal Dynamics 50A Precision Tip for XT-300 (5-Pack)

Technical Overview of the Thermal Dynamics 21-1051 Precision Tip

The Thermal Dynamics 21-1051 is a specialized plasma cutting tip designed specifically for use with the XT-300 plasma torch system. Engineered to operate at a current rating of 50 Amperes, this consumable is optimized for precision cutting applications on mild steel substrates. The "Precision" designation indicates a design focus on arc constriction, allowing for a higher energy density plasma stream. This results in narrower kerf widths, reduced heat-affected zones (HAZ), and sharper edge quality compared to standard general-purpose tips.

Manufactured in the United States, these tips are critical components in the plasma arc generation process. They serve to constrict the plasma gas flow, focusing the arc to achieve the desired cutting performance. The 21-1051 is constructed to withstand the high thermal loads associated with 50A plasma cutting while maintaining dimensional stability. Proper maintenance and timely replacement of the tip are essential for preserving cut quality and protecting the electrode and torch head from damage due to blowback or arc wandering.

This product is supplied in a package of five, ensuring operators have sufficient inventory for continuous production runs. It is strictly compatible with the XT-300 series torches and is not interchangeable with other torch models or amperage ranges without appropriate setup changes. Users should verify their power source settings match the 50A rating to prevent premature wear or poor cut characteristics. The physical dimensions of the tip are approximately 1.2 x 1.7 x 1.2 inches, fitting standard XT-300 consumable stacks.
