2218800 - Oxweld PM-200 Machine Torch, 2-Inch Barrel, 33.5-Inch Length

The Standard for Heavy Industrial Cutting

When the job calls for slicing through massive steel slabs, professional fabricators and plant managers turn to the ESAB Oxweld PM-200 Machine Cutting Torch. This isn't just a torch; it's a heavy-duty instrument built for the toughest automated cutting tables in the world. With the ability to sever steel up to 40 inches thick, the PM-200 is the powerhouse you need for processing ingots, risers, and heavy plate. The 2218800 model comes with a substantial 33-1/2 inch length and a solid 2-inch barrel, ensuring that once it's clamped into your machine, it stays perfectly aligned for precise cuts shift after shift.

Flashback-Free Operation

One of the biggest concerns in oxy-fuel cutting is safety, specifically the danger of flashbacks. The Oxweld PM-200 mitigates this risk entirely through its post-mix technology. By mixing the preheat fuel and oxygen outside the nozzle rather than inside the torch tubes, ESAB has created a system where flashbacks cannot propagate back into the equipment. This design not only protects the operator and the machinery but also simplifies operation, making it trouble-free even under the intense heat and pressure of thick-section cutting. It allows you to focus on the cut quality rather than worrying about equipment failure.

Built for the Long Haul

Machine downtime kills profitability, which is why the PM-200 is designed to keep running. The high stand-off height is a favorite feature among operators because it keeps the high-speed cutting tips away from the blowback and slag, significantly reducing the frequency of tip cleaning and replacement. Compatible with convection, air, or water-cooling systems, this torch adapts to your specific shop environment to maintain optimal operating temperatures. While the post-mix design means it is not intended for piercing plates, its performance in shape cutting and automatic cut-off from an edge is unmatched. Equip your automation setup with the Oxweld PM-200 and experience the reliability of a true industrial legend.
