20427 - ESAB PT-17A 100 Amp Plasma Gouging Tip (Pack of 5)

Precision Control for Heavy Metal Removal

When you need to wash away a bad weld or prep a thick plate for a new joint, your equipment needs to be as tough as the job. The ESAB 20427 Gouging Tip is built for welders who rely on the PT-17A torch to get the heavy lifting done. Rated for 100 Amps, this tip turns your plasma system into a powerful gouging tool, melting away metal cleanly and quickly without the noise and carbon contamination associated with carbon arc gouging. It’s all about control—this tip focuses the arc so you can see exactly what you are removing, leaving a bright, clean surface ready for the next pass.

We know that downtime kills productivity, which is why these tips come in a convenient pack of five. You can keep a spare in your pocket or toolbox, ready to swap out the moment you notice the arc starting to wander. The copper construction is rugged enough to handle the heat of 100-amp work, giving you a longer service life per tip compared to generic alternatives. It fits perfectly into the PT-17A assembly, ensuring a tight seal and proper gas flow every time you trigger the torch.

Gouging isn't just about brute force; it's about finesse. With the ESAB 20427, you get a stable arc that responds to your hand movements, allowing for smooth, uniform grooves. Whether you are fixing a crack in heavy machinery or back-gouging a root pass on a pressure vessel, these tips give you the confidence to cut deep without cutting through. Upgrade your consumable stash with genuine ESAB parts and keep your arc running smooth and hot.
