OVERVIEW

Restore Your K4000 with the Arcair 20Z08 Head

When you are deep in a gouging job, your torch takes a beating. The head assembly is right at the front line, dealing with extreme heat, spatter, and mechanical stress. If your K3000 or K4000 torch is starting to overheat or the air flow feels inconsistent, it might be time to swap out the head. The Arcair 20Z08 is the factory-original 75-degree head assembly that gets your torch back to performing like new.

This isn't just a chunk of brass; it's a precision-engineered component designed to handle the massive current (up to 1000 amps on the K4000) used in air carbon arc gouging. The 75-degree angle is the industry standard for a reason—it gives you the best balance of control and comfort for most gouging angles. Whether you are back-gouging welds, removing defects, or cutting through cast iron, this head ensures the air jet is perfectly aligned with the electrode to blast away molten metal cleanly.

Don't risk your equipment or your weld quality with knock-off parts that might not seat correctly. A loose head can cause arcing inside the torch, ruining the cable and handle. The 20Z08 fits perfectly, seals tight, and conducts current efficiently. It’s built tough to survive the harsh conditions of shipyards, rail shops, and heavy equipment repair. Keep a spare in your toolbox so you never have to stop production for a blown torch head.

Why Choose Genuine Arcair?

  • Perfect Fit: No air leaks, no loose connections.
  • Durability: Stands up to the heat of heavy gouging.
  • Performance: Maintains the correct air pressure and arc stability.

FAQ

The 20Z08 head assembly is designed to fit Arcair K3000 and K4000 manual gouging torches.

No, the 20Z08 is typically the head assembly itself. Insulators and other hardware are usually sold separately or reused if in good condition.

This head features a 75-degree angle, which is the standard configuration for most general gouging applications.

Over time, the head can become pitted, threads can wear, or air passages can clog, leading to overheating, poor conductivity, and inefficient metal removal.

Yes, this is a genuine Arcair (ESAB) part, ensuring the highest quality and compatibility with your equipment.

No, the K3000/K4000 series are for surface applications. Underwater gouging requires the Sea-Dragon or similar specialized torches.

It is manufactured from a high-grade copper alloy to withstand high heat and conduct electricity efficiently.

Disconnect power, remove the insulators and the old head from the cable assembly, clean the connection points, and install the new head ensuring a tight fit before replacing insulators.
