OVERVIEW

Restore Your N-7500 Torch Performance

The Arcair 96-774-097 Shoe F/N-7500 is the specific replacement part needed to refurbish the head assembly of your N-7500 gouging torch. For welders and fabricators who rely on the N-7500 for heavy metal removal, the condition of the torch head is paramount. The shoe plays a pivotal role in guiding the carbon electrode and protecting the internal components of the torch from the harsh environment of the gouging arc. Over time, exposure to molten metal spray and extreme heat can erode or crack the shoe, compromising the torch's efficiency and handling.

Replacing a worn shoe is a straightforward maintenance task that can significantly improve the handling and safety of your gouging operations. A damaged shoe can lead to misalignment of the carbon rod or inadequate airflow, resulting in irregular grooves and increased cleanup time. This genuine Arcair part restores the factory-standard geometry and insulation to your torch, ensuring that the air stream is directed precisely where it is needed to blow away molten metal. It is built from durable, heat-resistant materials capable of surviving the aggressive conditions found in shipyards, rail shops, and heavy construction sites.

Don't let a small component compromise the power of your N-7500. The 96-774-097 Shoe is designed for a perfect fit, eliminating the frustration of trying to force generic parts into place. It integrates smoothly with the torch's swivel cable and valve assembly, maintaining the ergonomic balance that operators appreciate during long shifts. Regular inspection of your gouging torch's front-end parts, including the shoe, is a best practice that extends the life of the entire unit.

Equip your tool crib with the Arcair 96-774-097 to ensure your team is always ready for heavy-duty gouging tasks. This part represents Arcair's commitment to quality and performance, helping you get the job done right, safely, and efficiently.
