2117834 - ESAB Oxweld C-66 Machine Torch Head 90 Degree Replacement

Restore Your Cutting Precision with the C-66 90-Degree Head

For fabricators and machine operators running the legendary C-66 machine torch, the cutting head is the business end of the operation. Over time, heat, spatter, and accidental collisions can take their toll on this vital component. The ESAB 2117834 C-66 Head 90 is the genuine replacement you need to get your cutting table back to peak performance. Designed with a standard 90-degree angle, this head is perfect for straight-line cutting, shape cutting, and general plate processing where a vertical torch orientation is required.

Why replace the head? Often, the seating area where the cutting tip seals against the torch can become marred or worn. This leads to gas leaks, "popping," and potentially dangerous flashbacks. A compromised head also affects your cut quality—if the tip doesn't seat perfectly square, your stream won't be true, leading to beveled edges where you wanted square cuts. By swapping out the old head for a brand new ESAB 2117834, you ensure a tight, leak-free seal and a perfectly aligned cutting stream. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new torch but delivers 'like-new' results.

Built from heavy-duty brass, this head acts as a heat sink, pulling thermal energy away from the delicate seating surfaces. It is rugged enough to survive the harsh environment of a steel service center or fabrication shop. Installation is straightforward, allowing you to perform the repair right at the machine and minimize downtime. Whether you are cutting thin sheet or heavy slab, the integrity of your torch head dictates the quality of your drop. Don't struggle with a leaking or bent torch head that ruins your consumables and your plate.

This head fits the standard C-66 machine torch barrel and accepts standard Oxweld-style tips. It is designed for oxy-fuel cutting, handling acetylene, propane, propylene, or natural gas with the appropriate consumables. Keep your machine running smooth and your cuts clean with this essential replacement part. It’s the reliable choice for professional welders and thermal cutting operators who demand consistency from their equipment day in and day out.
