If you are running an older Thermal Dynamics plasma cutter, you know that the machine is a workhorse, but the consumables are what determine your cut quality. The Thermal Dynamics 9-1790 is a "Long" style cutting tip designed to give you an edge—literally and figuratively. The extended length of this tip pushes the cutting point further out from the bulky handle of the torch. This simple design change makes a huge difference when you are trying to follow a tricky pattern or need to see exactly where the arc is engaging the metal. No more guessing or craning your neck to see around the nozzle; the 9-1790 puts the action right where you can see it.
This tip features a 0.062-inch orifice, which is the hole the plasma arc shoots through. Over time, this hole gets blown out, ragged, or oval-shaped, which makes your arc wander and your cuts look like you chewed them off. Swapping in a fresh 9-1790 restores that crisp, focused laser-like stream of plasma. You'll notice immediately that your travel speed can pick up, your dross (slag) drops off easier, and your edges are squarer. It’s the cheapest tune-up you can give your plasma cutter.
The 9-1790 is built to fit specific torches like the PCH-51 and PCH-52 found on the reliable PAK Master series machines. These older units are beasts, and keeping them fed with quality copper consumables keeps them running strong. Whether you are doing auto body repair, fixing farm equipment, or fabricating custom brackets, having a few of these long tips in your toolbox is a smart move. They are particularly great for reaching into corners or cutting inside channels where a standard stubby tip just can't reach effectively.
Don't let a $10 part ruin a $100 sheet of metal. If your arc is sputtering, turning green, or cutting on a slant, check your tip. If the hole isn't perfectly round, toss it and thread on a new 9-1790. It’s an easy fix that saves you time on grinding and cleanup later. Keep your cuts clean and your visibility high with this essential replacement part.
