Q21598 - ESAB PT-25 150A Plasma Cutting Tip (Pack of 5)

High-Performance 150A Cutting Tips for ESAB PT-25 Systems

The ESAB Q21598 is a specialized cutting tip designed exclusively for the PT-25 plasma torch series. Engineered to handle high-current applications, this consumable is rated for 150 Amps, making it an essential component for heavy industrial fabrication and demolition tasks where thick metal plate processing is required. The tip features a precision-drilled orifice that constricts the plasma arc, increasing energy density and velocity to produce clean, square cuts with minimal dross accumulation. Maintaining the integrity of the cutting tip is critical for arc stability; a worn orifice can lead to arc wandering, beveling, and reduced cutting speeds.

Manufactured to ESAB's rigorous OEM standards, these tips utilize high-grade copper alloys that provide excellent thermal conductivity. This efficient heat dissipation is crucial when operating at 150A, as it prevents premature melting of the tip face and extends the service life of the consumable. The Q21598 is designed to maintain concentricity with the electrode, ensuring the plasma gas flows uniformly around the arc. This pack contains five (5) tips, providing facility managers and operators with necessary stock to maintain continuous operations during intensive cutting shifts.

Compatibility is key in plasma systems. The Q21598 is specifically keyed and dimensioned for the PT-25 head, ensuring a secure seal against gas leaks which could otherwise compromise cut quality or damage the torch head. By using genuine ESAB consumables, operators ensure that their equipment operates within the manufacturer's specified parameters for duty cycle and cut capacity. These tips are suitable for use on mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum, provided the appropriate gas mix and parameter settings are utilized on the power source.

In industrial environments, the cost of downtime often exceeds the cost of consumables. Utilizing the correct 150A tip for heavy-duty cycles ensures that the machine operates at peak efficiency. Regular inspection of the tip face for cratering or keyholing is recommended. When the orifice becomes out-of-round, replacing the tip with a fresh Q21598 unit restores the system's cutting capability to factory standards.
