When you are running an automatic gouging setup like the Arcair A6, downtime is the enemy. The Arcair Contact Jaw for 1/2-inch electrodes is the key to keeping your production line humming and your metal removal precise. Designed specifically for the heavy-duty demands of the A6 automatic torch, this contact jaw ensures that your machine delivers full power to the carbon rod, cut after cut, hour after hour.
Built for Conductivity and Durability
Gouging requires massive amounts of current, and the contact jaw is the final bridge that delivers that energy to the work. Made from high-grade copper, this jaw provides the conductivity needed to handle high amperages without overheating. A worn-out jaw doesn't just perform poorly; it creates resistance. That resistance generates excess heat in the torch head, which can melt internal components and lead to expensive repairs. Swapping in a fresh Arcair contact jaw is a simple, cost-effective way to protect your valuable equipment and ensure smooth, clean grooves.
Perfect Fit for 1/2" Carbons
Automatic systems rely on precision. If the jaw is too loose, you get arcing and sputtering. If it's too tight or misaligned, the feed mechanism jams. This genuine Arcair part is machined to exact tolerances for 1/2-inch jointed carbons, ensuring a secure grip that still allows for consistent electrode feeding. It is the reliable choice for foundries and fab shops that can't afford to stop for constant adjustments.
Maintenance Matters
In the harsh environment of air carbon arc gouging, consumables take a beating. Slag, heat, and constant friction wear down even the toughest parts. Keeping a supply of replacement contact jaws on hand ensures that when wear sets in, you can swap the part out in minutes and get back to work. Don't compromise your weld prep or casting finishing with inferior aftermarket parts; stick with the brand that invented the process. Trust Arcair for your A6 automatic torch consumables.
