2222658 - Oxweld PM-200 24-Inch Machine Torch

Reliable Heavy-Duty Cutting for Professional Fabricators

When your production line demands the ability to slice through steel over three feet thick, the ESAB Oxweld PM-200 Machine Cutting Torch is the tool for the job. This 24-inch torch is built for the serious demands of automated cutting tables and shape-cutting machines. With a standard 2-inch barrel, it mounts securely to your existing equipment, providing the rigidity needed for smooth, accurate cuts. The PM-200 is legendary among fabricators for its "trouble-free operation," largely due to its smart design choices that prioritize the operator's safety and the equipment's uptime.

Safety is paramount in heavy industrial cutting, and the PM-200 delivers with its post-mix technology. By mixing the preheat gases and cutting oxygen outside the torch tip rather than inside the handle or barrel, the risk of dangerous flashbacks is effectively neutralized. This gives operators peace of mind when running high-heat, long-duration cuts. Additionally, the torch supports convection, air, or water cooling, giving you the flexibility to hook it up according to your machine's setup and the intensity of your cutting schedule. Whether you are running a simple straight-line tractor or a complex shape-cutting gantry, this torch adapts to the thermal load.

One of the biggest headaches in machine cutting is tip fouling. The PM-200 addresses this with a high stand-off design. By allowing the torch to operate effectively at a greater distance from the workpiece, high-speed cutting tips stay cleaner for longer, protected from the blowback of slag and spatter. This means less downtime for tip cleaning and replacement, and more time making chips. Note that due to the post-mix design, this torch is not intended for piercing plate; it is a powerhouse for edge starts and continuous cutting of extremely thick sections. Upgrade your machine setup with the PM-200 for consistent, heavy-duty performance.
