OVERVIEW

Genuine Thermal Dynamics 9-5779 Shield Cup

The Thermal Dynamics 9-5779 Shield Cup is an essential consumable designed for a wide range of legacy plasma cutting torches, including the PCH/M-25, PCH/M-26, PCH/M-28, PCH/M-35, PCH/M-38, PCH/M-40, and PCH/M-42 series. As a genuine OEM part, it guarantees a perfect fit and reliable performance, ensuring your equipment operates at manufacturer specifications.

This shield cup serves a dual purpose: it protects the inner consumables (such as the electrode and tip) from molten metal spatter and mechanical damage, and it acts as a standoff guide. By maintaining a fixed distance between the torch tip and the workpiece, it allows operators to perform "drag cutting"—resting the torch directly on the metal surface—without extinguishing the arc or damaging the tip. This feature is particularly beneficial for maintaining steady hands and achieving cleaner, straighter cuts.

At Josef Gas, we understand the importance of keeping your plasma cutter running smoothly. Replacing worn shield cups is vital for maintaining arc stability and cut quality. Whether you are working in an automotive shop, HVAC fabrication, or general maintenance, this shield cup provides the durability and precision required for consistent results.

Key Benefits

  • OEM Quality: Manufactured by Thermal Dynamics for guaranteed compatibility.
  • Drag Cutting Capable: Allows the operator to drag the torch on the plate for easier handling.
  • Protection: Shields the nozzle and electrode from blowback and spatter.
