OVERVIEW

Reach Tight Spots Without Losing Shielding

Every welder knows the frustration of trying to lay a bead in a tight corner or a deep groove. Your standard nozzle is just too fat—it hits the walls of the workpiece before your stick-out is right, leaving you with a long arc, poor visibility, and likely porosity. The ESAB 13mm Restricted Access Nozzle (Part #0459990231) is the solution for those headaches. Designed specifically for your ESAB PSF or RT82 torch, this nozzle features a sharp taper that slims down the front end, letting you get the gun right in where the action is.

See the Puddle, Control the Arc
When you can't see the puddle, you're guessing. The tapered design of this nozzle doesn't just help with physical access; it opens up your line of sight. This is a game-changer for intricate work where precision is key. You can maintain the correct contact-tip-to-work distance (CTWD) even in cramped spaces, ensuring your voltage stays steady and your penetration is consistent.

Built for the Grind
Made from heavy-duty copper alloy, this nozzle stands up to the heat. It resists spatter buildup better than cheaper alternatives, meaning you spend less time banging your gun or scraping out the cone and more time burning wire. Whether you are welding chassis frames, exhaust systems, or complex structural nodes, swapping to this restricted access nozzle turns a nightmare joint into a walk in the park. Keep one in your kit for when the fit-up gets tight.

FAQ

This nozzle has a 13mm bore diameter, which is approximately 1/2 inch.

It is designed for ESAB PSF series and RT82 series MIG torches.

Restricted access nozzles have a tapered shape that allows the welder to reach into tight corners, narrow grooves, or complex angles where a standard nozzle would be too bulky.

While it allows access to tight spots, the narrower opening means you must ensure your gas flow rate is optimized. However, for the specific tight applications it is designed for, it provides excellent localized shielding.

Yes, this is a genuine ESAB part with SKU 0459990231.

It is manufactured from a high-quality copper alloy designed for durability and heat dissipation.

Yes, the tapered design significantly improves the welder's view of the arc and weld puddle compared to standard cylindrical nozzles.

Restricted access nozzles generally have less mass than heavy-duty standard nozzles. While durable, they are best used within the standard range of the torch for specific access needs; for continuous high-amperage spray transfer in open areas, a standard nozzle might run cooler.
