OVERVIEW

Remove Welds Fast with the Right Nozzle

If you are running a Powermax 1100 and need to wash out a bad weld, prep a joint, or remove a temporary bracket, you need the Hypertherm 120476 Gouging Nozzle. Trying to gouge with a cutting tip is a recipe for disaster—you'll likely blow the tip, damage your torch, or cut right through the plate you're trying to save. This specialized gouging nozzle is built to handle the heat and spread the arc out, letting you peel away metal layer by layer with control and precision.

Plasma gouging is a game-changer for welders who are tired of the noise, smoke, and mess of carbon arc gouging. With the 120476 nozzle, you get a clean, bright groove that is often ready to weld over immediately. There's no carbon pickup, which means less grinding for you and better X-ray results on your next weld. This nozzle is rated for the full power of your machine, allowing you to dig deep or skim the surface depending on your torch angle and travel speed.

Durability is key when you are in the middle of a repair job. Cheap aftermarket nozzles often wear out unevenly, causing the arc to wander and making it hard to control the depth of your gouge. Genuine Hypertherm nozzles stay round longer and handle the intense heat of gouging better. This means you spend more time working and less time walking back to the tool crib for parts. The 120476 fits perfectly on your PAC110 torch, seating securely to ensure good electrical contact and proper gas flow.

To get the best life out of this nozzle, make sure your air supply is clean and dry. Moisture in the line is the number one killer of plasma consumables. Also, keep your torch angled at about 35 to 45 degrees to the workpiece so the molten metal blows away from the torch, not back into the nozzle face. Whether you are fixing heavy equipment, repairing a tank, or modifying a structural frame, keeping a pack of these 120476 nozzles in your box ensures you are ready for any demolition or repair challenge.

FAQ

The 120476 nozzle is designed for the Hypertherm Powermax 1100 plasma cutting system using the PAC110 or PAC110T torch.

No, the 120476 is specifically designed for gouging. It has a wider orifice to spread the arc. For cutting, you should use the standard cutting nozzles (e.g., 120282 or 120438) for the Powermax 1100.

This gouging nozzle is typically used at the machine's maximum output, which is 80 Amps for the Powermax 1100, to ensure effective metal removal.

Replace the nozzle when the center orifice becomes distorted, out of round, or significantly enlarged. If you notice the arc wandering or poor gouge quality, inspect the nozzle immediately.

Yes, you should use the appropriate shield or deflector designed for gouging with the Powermax 1100 to protect the nozzle and torch head from molten spatter.

Generally, no. The Powermax 1100 uses compressed air or nitrogen for both cutting and gouging, making it very convenient to switch processes by simply changing consumables.

OEM nozzles are manufactured with precise tolerances and high-quality copper alloys. Aftermarket copies often have poor concentricity which can damage your torch head and lead to shorter consumable life.
