OVERVIEW

Genuine Arcair 96-076-018 Battery Assembly for Slice Systems

The Arcair 96-076-018 is a specialized Battery Assembly designed as a direct replacement for Arcair Slice exothermic cutting systems housed in plastic cases. In the demanding world of industrial maintenance and repair operations (MRO), equipment reliability is paramount. The Slice system relies on a self-contained 12-volt battery source to energize the striker strip and ignite the cutting rod. Over time, batteries degrade or fail, rendering the portable ignition system inoperative. This OEM assembly ensures that your equipment is restored to factory specifications, providing the necessary current to initiate the exothermic reaction instantly.

This assembly is engineered specifically for the "Plas Cse" (Plastic Case) variants of the Slice utility packs. Unlike generic batteries that may require modification or lack the correct form factor, the 96-076-018 comes ready for installation with the appropriate dimensions and connector configurations. Using genuine Arcair parts guarantees compatibility with the internal mounting points of the Slice toolbox, preventing movement during transport that could lead to disconnected wires or damage.

For procurement specialists and facility managers, maintaining a stock of critical replacement parts like the 96-076-018 minimizes downtime. The Slice system is often deployed in emergency situations—such as removing seized pins on heavy machinery or cutting through bridge decking—where a failure to ignite is not an option. This battery assembly ensures your team is prepared for any cutting task, regardless of location or access to grid power.

Technical Compatibility

The 96-076-018 is identified by Arcair as the correct replacement for specific serial numbers and models of the Slice Pack. Please verify your equipment's parts list or the diagram inside the case lid to confirm compatibility. It is distinct from battery assemblies designed for soft packs or metal box variants.

FAQ

The Arcair 96-076-018 is designed for Arcair Slice exothermic cutting systems, specifically those housed in the hard plastic case (Plas Cse).

Battery assemblies typically ship with a surface charge, but it is recommended to verify the charge or allow the system to charge (if the unit has a built-in charger) before field use.

Yes, this is a genuine OEM Arcair component, ensuring proper fit and safety compliance for your Slice system.

No, this specific part number (96-076-018) is designated for the plastic case models. Soft packs often use a different battery configuration. Check your manual for the correct part number.

If your striker plate fails to spark when the torch is touched to it, or if the spark is very weak despite clean connections, the battery assembly likely needs replacement.

The Arcair Slice system typically operates on a 12-volt ignition system.

No, this is the battery assembly only. The striker plate and torch are sold separately or as part of the full kit.

Installation is generally simple and involves disconnecting the leads from the old battery and connecting the new assembly in the designated compartment of the case.
