74143610 - Arcair Tri-Arc Replacement Swivel Cable 10ft Straight Thread

Product Overview

The Arcair 74-143-610 is a specialized Swivel Cable assembly designed exclusively for use with the Arcair Tri-Arc® Foundry Gouging Torch. Engineered to meet the rigorous demands of heavy industrial environments, this component serves as the critical link between the power source, air supply, and the torch handle. The assembly measures 10 feet in length, providing operators with sufficient range of motion to navigate around large castings and workpieces typical in foundry settings without compromising the stability of the connection.

Technical Construction

This cable assembly features a straight thread configuration, ensuring a precise mechanical interface with the Tri-Arc torch body. The core of the assembly is designed to conduct high amperage current required for air carbon-arc gouging while simultaneously delivering the compressed air stream needed to blow away molten metal. The outer sheath is constructed from durable, heat-resistant materials capable of withstanding exposure to spatter, hot metal, and abrasive surfaces common in metal removal operations.

Ergonomic Swivel Design

A defining feature of the 74-143-610 is its integrated swivel mechanism. In heavy-duty gouging applications, the torch and cable weight can be substantial. The swivel allows the cable to rotate independently of the torch handle, preventing the cable from coiling or resisting the operator's movements. This significantly reduces torque transfer to the operator's wrist and forearm, thereby minimizing fatigue and the risk of repetitive strain injuries during prolonged shifts.

Compatibility and Maintenance

As an OEM replacement part, this cable ensures seamless compatibility with existing Tri-Arc systems. Regular inspection of gouging cables is recommended to detect cuts, burns, or fraying that could compromise electrical safety or air pressure. Replacing a worn cable with the genuine Arcair 74-143-610 restores the system's efficiency and safety compliance. This specific SKU is identified by the straight thread connection style; operators should verify their torch connection type prior to installation to ensure proper fitment.
