The Arcair K4000 Angle-Arc Manual Gouging Torch (SKU: 61-082-006) represents the pinnacle of air carbon-arc gouging technology. Designed to meet the rigorous demands of the metal fabrication and MRO industries, this torch kit provides a robust solution for removing metal efficiently and cleanly. The K4000 is widely recognized as the industry standard, trusted by professionals for its durability and ease of use in environments ranging from structural steel fabrication to pressure vessel repair.
At the heart of the K4000's performance is its superior air flow system. The torch features a specialized four-hole head assembly that optimizes the stream of compressed air to the arc. This design ensures that molten metal and slag are blown away from the groove edge effectively, leaving a clean surface that often requires little to no secondary preparation. The torch is rated for a substantial amperage range of 90 to 1000 Amps, allowing it to handle everything from light defect removal to heavy-duty severing of thick steel sections.
This kit includes a 7-foot (2.1 meter) heavy-duty cable, often referred to as the "Extreme" cable due to its enhanced durability. The cable is engineered with improved electrical conduction properties, which decreases heat build-up within the cable and the torch handle, thereby extending the service life of the equipment. The outer cover is constructed from high-grade materials that resist breakdown caused by the intense heat and UV radiation produced during the gouging process. Furthermore, the cable features a 360-degree swivel connection, a critical ergonomic feature that prevents cable twisting and significantly reduces operator wrist strain.
Safety is a key component of the Arcair design. The kit comes with an insulated connection boot and a complete hook-up kit, which simplifies installation and virtually eliminates the possibility of arcing when the assembly contacts electrically hot parts. Additionally, the torch incorporates an air assist positive air shut-off valve. This feature minimizes the cycling of the air supply unit and allows the torch to function reliably even when the air supply is marginal, ensuring consistent performance on the job site.
