OVERVIEW

Restore Foundry Efficiency with Genuine Arcair Parts

The Arcair 94-123-017 Valve Button Kit is a critical replacement component designed exclusively for the Arcair Tri-Arc Foundry Torch. In the high-stakes environment of a foundry, equipment reliability is paramount. The Tri-Arc torch is the workhorse of the industry, used for pad washing and heavy defect removal. Over time, the mechanical components of the air valve assembly can wear down due to the ingress of metallic dust, heat exposure, and repetitive use. This valve button kit provides the necessary components to service the actuation mechanism, ensuring that airflow is controlled precisely and reliably.

Sourcing genuine OEM parts like the 94-123-017 ensures that your maintenance teams can perform repairs quickly and with confidence. Unlike aftermarket alternatives that may suffer from tolerance issues, Arcair's replacement parts are manufactured to the exact specifications of the original torch assembly. This guarantees a proper seal and smooth button action, which are essential for operator comfort and safety. A sticking or leaking valve can lead to wasted compressed air, reduced gouging performance, and increased operator fatigue.

This kit is an essential stock item for any maintenance department supporting air carbon arc gouging operations. By keeping the valve assembly in top condition, you extend the overall lifespan of the torch body and maintain the high productivity rates required in metal casting and finishing operations. The kit includes the button and necessary seating components to swap out the worn interface, returning the torch to factory-standard functionality.

Key Benefits for Inventory Managers

  • OEM Assurance: Guaranteed compatibility with Tri-Arc series torches eliminates return hassles.
  • Downtime Reduction: Quick-fix kit allows for rapid bench repairs, getting torches back on the line faster.
  • Cost-Effective Maintenance: Replacing the button assembly is significantly cheaper than replacing the entire torch handle or valve body.

FAQ

This kit is specifically designed for the Arcair Tri-Arc Foundry Torch. It is not compatible with the standard K4000 or K3000 angle-arc torches.

Common signs include the button sticking in the down position, difficulty pressing the button, air leaking from around the button area, or the air valve failing to open completely.

Typically, this kit includes the button and immediate actuation components. The internal valve spool and spool O-rings are often sold as a separate repair kit or individual parts, though exact contents can vary by batch revision.

Yes, this is a genuine Arcair (ESAB) replacement part, ensuring proper fit and material quality for foundry applications.

No, the K4000 uses a different valve assembly. You should check the parts breakdown for the K4000 for the correct button kit.

Installation involves removing the valve cover or housing screws, extracting the old button mechanism, cleaning the seat of any debris, and inserting the new components. Always ensure the air supply is disconnected before servicing.

If a new button sticks, it is often due to debris remaining in the valve body or a damaged valve body housing. Ensure the cavity is thoroughly cleaned before installation.
