OVERVIEW

Maximize Cutting Performance with the ESAB 21616 Heat Shield

Keep your plasma cutting operations running smoothly with the ESAB Heat Shield for PT-27 torches (Part #21616). In the demanding world of metal fabrication, the condition of your torch consumables directly impacts the quality of your cut and the efficiency of your workflow. This heat shield is specifically engineered for the PT-27 torch, optimized for cutting currents between 50 and 80 Amps. It provides the necessary protection and gas direction required for high-quality plasma gouging and cutting.

Welders Supply knows that downtime costs money. That's why we recommend stocking up on essential consumables like the 21616 Heat Shield. This component plays a dual role: it physically protects the delicate nozzle and electrode from the harsh environment of the plasma arc, including heat and spatter, and it also assists in shaping the gas flow around the arc. This ensures a cleaner cut with less dross and reduces the frequency of consumable changeovers. Made in Mexico to ESAB's rigorous quality control standards, this shield is built to resist thermal shock and electrical tracking.

Designed for use with Air or Nitrogen, this versatile shield adapts to your shop's setup. When the orifice of your heat shield becomes misshapen or covered in spatter that cannot be removed, it disrupts the gas flow, leading to unstable arcs and beveled cuts. Swapping in a fresh ESAB 21616 Heat Shield is a quick and cost-effective way to restore your system's performance. Don't compromise on quality with generic knock-offs; choose the part designed by the manufacturer for the best results.

Product Highlights:

  • Robust Construction: Resists high heat and impact from spatter.
  • Optimized Flow: Ensures proper gas dynamics for 50-80A cutting.
  • Easy Installation: Threaded design for quick changes on the PT-27 torch.
  • Reliable Brand: Genuine ESAB part for guaranteed compatibility.
