32-1512 - Thermal Dynamics 0.110 Plasma Gouging Tip (10-Pack)

Thermal Dynamics 32-1512 Gouging Tip (10-Pack)

The Thermal Dynamics 32-1512 Gouging Tip is a specialized consumable designed for use with the SL60 and SL100 1Torch plasma systems. Sold in a package of 10, these tips feature a large 0.110-inch orifice specifically engineered for plasma gouging applications. Unlike standard cutting tips which focus the plasma arc into a tight stream for severing metal, gouging tips are designed to widen the arc, allowing the operator to wash away molten metal effectively. This makes them an essential tool for weld removal, edge preparation, and defect repair in industrial environments.

Using genuine Thermal Dynamics consumables ensures that your plasma system operates at peak efficiency. The 32-1512 tip is manufactured with high-quality copper alloys to withstand the intense heat and back-blow associated with gouging operations. When paired with the correct shield cup and electrode, these tips provide a smooth, consistent gouge profile that reduces the need for secondary grinding. Whether you are working on mild steel, stainless steel, or aluminum, these tips deliver the performance required for heavy-duty MRO and fabrication tasks.

Plasma gouging is often preferred over carbon arc gouging because it is quieter, produces less smoke, and generally leaves a cleaner surface. By utilizing the 32-1512 tip with your existing 1Torch system, you can easily switch between cutting and gouging modes without needing a completely different power source. This versatility maximizes the utility of your Thermal Dynamics equipment. Josef Gas supplies these tips in convenient 10-packs, ensuring you have ample stock for large projects or ongoing maintenance work.

Proper installation of the gouging tip is critical for safety and performance. Ensure that the torch is disconnected from power before changing consumables. Inspect the electrode and start cartridge when replacing the tip, as worn components can lead to poor arc initiation or premature tip failure. With the 32-1512, operators can achieve controlled metal removal rates, making it easier to uncover cracks or remove temporary lifting lugs without damaging the base material.
