OVERVIEW

Master Metal Removal with the Right Gouging Nozzle

If you are running an ESAB PT-23 or PT-27 plasma torch and need to tackle gouging jobs, the ESAB 35442 Gouging Nozzle is the exact part you need to get the job done right. Plasma gouging is a faster, cleaner, and quieter alternative to carbon arc gouging, but it requires specific consumables to shape the arc correctly. This nozzle is designed to broaden the plasma stream, allowing you to wash away metal smoothly rather than cutting straight through it.

Whether you are removing an old, cracked weld, preparing a joint for full penetration, or washing off a temporary bracket, control is everything. A worn-out or incorrect nozzle can cause the arc to wander, leading to uneven gouges and more grinding work later. These replacement nozzles restore your torch's ability to produce a focused, aggressive gouging arc that melts metal away efficiently while the gas stream blows it clear. The result is a clean, bright U-groove that is often ready for welding with minimal secondary preparation.

We know that gouging can be tough on consumables, which is why these are sold in a convenient pack of 5. You can keep a few in your toolbox or on your rig, ensuring you never have to stop in the middle of a job because a tip burned out. Designed for durability and consistent electrical conductivity, these nozzles help you get the most out of your older ESAB equipment, keeping your trusty PT-23 or PT-27 running like new.

Why Choose These Nozzles?

  • Smooth Arc: Designed to create a stable gouging stream for consistent depth and width.
  • Perfect Fit: No guessing games—these fit your PT-23/27 torch head perfectly.
  • Value Pack: Five nozzles per package means you get more work done between orders.

FAQ

This gouging nozzle is specifically designed for use with ESAB PT-23 and PT-27 plasma torches.

This is a gouging nozzle, designed to widen the arc for metal removal rather than severing the material like a cutting nozzle.

The product is sold as a pack of 5 nozzles.

No, using a gouging nozzle for cutting will result in a very wide kerf and poor cut quality. You should switch to a standard cutting nozzle for severance work.

Plasma gouging is generally quieter, produces less smoke and fumes, and typically leaves a cleaner surface that requires less grinding before re-welding.

Replace the nozzle when the orifice becomes distorted, out of round, or if the gouging performance deteriorates significantly.

Yes, often you may need a specific heat shield or deflector designed for gouging in addition to the nozzle. Check your torch manual for the full gouging setup.
