RECOMMENDED OPTIONS
VORTECH®Technology consumables produce a tighter plasma arc by concentrating the swirl.
Provides an additional kick of
arc constriction that “tightens”
the arc, concentrating more
cutting power than
conventional consumables.
A long powerful arc
cuts thicker and
quicker than most
comparable units on
the market today.
Extra swirl built
into the bottom
of the nozzle.
Patented torch technology with air
controls in the torch handle allows for
faster arc ignition.
