OVERVIEW

Keep Your A6 System Running Smoothly

Maximize the uptime of your automatic gouging operations with the Arcair A6 Contact Jaw for 3/8" Electrodes. Automatic gouging is a high-throughput process used to remove large volumes of metal quickly, and the contact jaw is the heart of the electrical transfer. When jaws become worn or pitted, they can cause feed interruptions, unstable arcs, and overheating of the torch assembly. This genuine Arcair replacement part (SKU: 0154201881) is built to factory specifications to get your A6 torch back to peak performance.

Designed for the 3/8-inch carbon electrodes commonly used in heavy plate preparation and back-gouging, this jaw ensures a secure grip and excellent current transfer. The high-quality copper material dissipates heat effectively, prolonging the life of the consumable even under continuous duty cycles. Whether you are retrofitting an older unit or performing routine maintenance on your production line, using authentic Arcair parts guarantees compatibility and reliability.

Installation is straightforward, allowing maintenance teams to swap out worn components quickly and minimize production downtime. Poor contact is the leading cause of premature failure in automatic torches; investing in a fresh contact jaw protects your expensive equipment and ensures consistent weld preparation quality. Trust Arcair's legacy in air carbon arc gouging to deliver the durability required for the toughest industrial environments.
