OVERVIEW

Keep Your Plasma System Running at Peak Performance

Heat is the enemy of any welding or cutting equipment, and nowhere is this more true than with water-cooled plasma torches. The ESAB Plasma Torch Coolant (1 Gallon) is your first line of defense against equipment downtime and costly repairs. Designed to circulate through your plasma cutter's cooling system, this fluid actively pulls heat away from the consumables and torch head, allowing you to cut for longer periods at higher amperages without overheating. Using the right coolant is just as important as using the right nozzle or electrode.

Why Not Just Use Water?
A common mistake in the industry is using plain tap water or standard automotive antifreeze in plasma systems. Tap water contains minerals that settle inside your torch, clogging the tiny lines like cholesterol in an artery. Once flow is restricted, your torch burns up. Automotive antifreeze often contains silicates that can damage the specialized pumps in welding gear. ESAB's coolant uses deionized water to ensure it is 100% pure and free of clogging minerals, and it is formulated specifically for the materials used in welding equipment.

All-Weather Protection
Whether you are working in a hot fabrication shop or a drafty garage in the middle of winter, this coolant has you covered. It is a pre-mixed 50/50 solution that resists freezing down to -38°C. This is critical if you leave your machine in a truck or an unheated shop overnight; a frozen cooling line can burst and destroy your entire cooling unit. On the flip side, it resists boiling up to 109°C, ensuring that even during long, heavy cuts, the fluid remains liquid and effective.

Ready to Use
This 1-gallon jug comes pre-mixed and ready to pour. There is no need to measure ratios or find a source of distilled water. Simply drain your old coolant, flush the system if necessary, and fill it up with ESAB's premium coolant. Regular coolant changes are a simple maintenance step that can extend the life of your torch and pump by years.

FAQ

The freezing point is -38 degrees Celsius (-36 degrees Fahrenheit), providing excellent protection for equipment stored in cold environments.

No, automotive antifreeze often contains silicates and other additives that can damage the pump seals and clog the fine passages of a plasma torch. Always use coolant designed for welding/cutting systems.

Yes, this is a pre-mixed solution of 50% ethylene glycol and deionized water. It is ready to use straight from the bottle; do not dilute it.

The boiling point is 109 degrees Celsius (228 degrees Fahrenheit), which helps prevent the coolant from vaporizing inside the hot torch head.

Deionized water is used to ensure low electrical conductivity and to prevent mineral scale buildup (calcification) inside the cooling lines and torch head.

It is generally recommended to change the coolant annually or whenever it shows signs of contamination, but you should always refer to your machine's specific maintenance manual.

The specific gravity is 1.07.

It is described as a colorless liquid, though it has a distinct organic odor.
