OVERVIEW

Ultimate Power for Heavy Metal Removal

When the job calls for serious metal removal, the Arcair Extreme K-5 Gouging Torch & Cable Assembly is the tool you want in your hands. This isn't your average shop torch; it is a 1250-amp beast designed to chew through steel, stainless, cast iron, and copper alloys with ease. Whether you are washing pads in a foundry, back-gouging heavy plate in a shipyard, or dismantling massive structures, the K-5 delivers the raw power and reliability you need to get the work done fast.

The "Extreme" series is all about combining durability with usability. The K-5 features a natural 15-degree angle that sits comfortably in the hand, reducing wrist strain during long shifts. The included 10-foot cable gives you plenty of room to maneuver around large workpieces without feeling tethered, and the 360-degree swivel connection means you won't be fighting a twisted hose while you're trying to hold a steady line. The torch body is built tough to survive drops, drags, and the intense heat of carbon arc gouging, ensuring it stays in your arsenal for the long haul.

Efficiency is key when you're burning metal, and the K-5 excels at it. Its powerful air jet system blasts molten slag out of the groove cleanly, leaving a smooth surface that is often ready for welding with little to no grinding. The heavy-duty clamping jaw holds electrodes up to 5/8-inch thick in a vice-like grip, giving you total control over the arc. Stop struggling with underpowered tools on heavy jobs. Upgrade to the Arcair K-5 and experience the difference that professional, extra heavy-duty equipment makes in your productivity and comfort.
