  • Publication number: 20250332689
    Abstract: A cutting head includes a cutting head body with an integrated collet and a shield configured to direct expended abrasive particles away from the cutting head. A wear insert is secured within the cutting head body and configured with a venturi chamber in which a stream of water accelerates a metered stream of abrasive. A focusing tube is secured to the wear insert assembly by the cutting head body with the integrated collet. The integrated collet aligns a focusing orifice of the focusing tube with an orifice through which the stream of water flows. A nut secures the integrated collet to the focusing tube and seals an interior of the cutting head body. The shield is selectively positionable along a length of the focusing tube to optimize shielding.
