32-1323 - Thermal Dynamics 0.073 Air Plasma Cutting Tip (10-Pack)

Precision Plasma Cutting Consumables

The Thermal Dynamics 32-1323 Tip is a critical component for industrial plasma cutting operations, engineered to define the shape and intensity of the plasma arc. This specific nozzle features a precision-drilled 0.073-inch orifice, a dimension calculated to optimize the velocity and density of the plasma gas stream at specific amperage settings. In plasma cutting physics, the nozzle constricts the ionized gas, increasing its temperature and velocity to effectively melt and blow away metal. The 32-1323 is designed for use with air as the plasma gas, making it a versatile choice for standard fabrication environments.

Manufactured to tight tolerances, these tips ensure concentricity between the electrode and the nozzle bore. This alignment is paramount; any deviation can lead to a skewed arc, resulting in beveled cuts, excessive dross, or premature failure of the consumable stack. The use of high-quality copper alloys in the construction of these tips facilitates rapid heat transfer away from the orifice edge, delaying the onset of keyholing—a common wear mode where the round orifice becomes oval-shaped, degrading cut quality.

This product is supplied as a package of 10, reflecting the consumable nature of plasma tips in high-volume production settings. Regular inspection and replacement of the tip are required to maintain cut angularity and edge finish. The 32-1323 integrates seamlessly with compatible Thermal Dynamics torch assemblies, ensuring that the gas flow dynamics (swirl and plenum pressure) function as intended by the original equipment manufacturer. For maintenance and repair operations (MRO) and heavy fabrication, relying on genuine OEM specifications for orifice sizing guarantees predictable performance and adherence to welding procedure specifications.
