OVERVIEW

Maximum Power for Serious Metal Removal

When you have inches of weld to remove or massive defects to dig out, you need a torch that won't quit. The Arcair K-5 Extreme Gouging Torch is the heavy-hitter you've been looking for. Rated for a massive 1250 Amps, this torch is designed for the welder who pushes their equipment to the limit. It replaces the old 0110 model, bringing modern airflow technology and tougher materials to your daily grind. If you are working on heavy equipment, structural steel, or in a foundry, the K-5 Extreme is your best friend for moving metal fast.

Blow Slag Away Faster

Nothing slows you down like slag that won't clear. The K-5 Extreme solves this with its specialized Four-Hole Head Assembly. This design concentrates the air stream right around the electrode, blasting molten metal out of the groove instantly. This means you get a cleaner cut in one pass, saving you time on cleanup and grinding later. It runs cooler and cuts cleaner, allowing you to maintain high travel speeds even when running big 5/8" jointed carbons.

Built for the Grind

We know that gouging torches take a beating. They get dropped, dragged, and exposed to extreme heat. The K-5 Extreme is built with a heavy-duty body that insulates the operator electrically and thermally. The grip is designed to give you control without cramping your hand during long shifts. This unit is the "Torch Only" configuration, allowing you to hook it up to your existing cable assembly with a standard lug connection. Upgrade your gouging setup with the K-5 Extreme and feel the difference that 1250 amps of raw power can make.
