9-6502 - Thermal Dynamics 9-6502 Air Gouging Tip .046 (10-Pack)

Thermal Dynamics 9-6502 Air Gouging Tip Overview

The Thermal Dynamics 9-6502 Air Gouging Tip is a specialized consumable designed to facilitate precise and efficient metal removal using plasma arc gouging. Engineered with a specific 0.046-inch orifice, this tip constricts the plasma arc to produce a focused stream capable of melting and blowing away metal for applications such as weld removal, defect correction, and edge preparation. Unlike standard cutting tips which are designed to sever material completely, this gouging tip is optimized to wash away surface metal while maintaining control over the depth and width of the groove.

This genuine Thermal Dynamics part is manufactured to strict tolerances, ensuring perfect compatibility with PCH-25, PCH-35, PCM-25, and PCM-35 plasma torch systems. Using OEM consumables is critical for maintaining the lifespan of your torch head and ensuring consistent arc quality. The 9-6502 tip is constructed from high-quality conductive materials that withstand the intense heat of the plasma gouging process, resisting erosion and deformation better than generic alternatives. This durability translates to less downtime for tip changes and more arc-on time for your operators.

Plasma gouging is often preferred over carbon arc gouging in certain applications due to reduced noise, smoke, and fumes. To achieve the best results, the 9-6502 tip should be used in conjunction with the correct amperage settings and gas flow rates specified for the PCH and PCM series machines. The 0.046" orifice size is ideal for light to medium gouging tasks where precision is paramount. This product is supplied as a package of 10, providing a convenient stock for busy fabrication shops and maintenance departments.

Whether you are repairing heavy equipment, preparing a joint for welding, or correcting a welding defect, the Thermal Dynamics 9-6502 ensures your plasma system operates at peak efficiency. Its design promotes a stable arc and smooth gas flow, resulting in cleaner gouges that require minimal secondary cleanup.
