Straight answers to the questions people ask most when choosing accessories for a plasma cutting system.
Many accessories are made for a particular model or size of power source, such as dust covers, wheel kits, filter kits and cables. Check the model on your cutter's data plate and compare it with the compatibility stated for the accessory.Generic items such as face shields and gloves usually suit any cutter, but cutting guides depend on the torch type and head. If you are unsure, check your manual or ask our team to help match the item to your machine.
A guide helps you keep a steady stand-off distance and follow a line, so the cut is straighter and the consumables last longer. Straight-edge guides, magnetic blocks, circle cutters and bevel or angle guides each help with a different task.For occasional straight cuts, a simple guide is enough. If you cut circles or repeated shapes regularly, a circle cutter or angle guide pays off in consistency and speed.
A filter kit sits on the air line close to the plasma cutter and removes moisture, oil and fine particles before they reach the torch. Wet or dirty air makes the arc unstable and shortens consumable life.It is especially useful when the air comes from a long hose, an older compressor or a damp workshop. Check and drain it regularly and replace the element according to the maker's instructions.
Heavier plasma units are awkward to lift, and a wheel kit or cart makes it easier to move them around a workshop or site and keeps the machine off a damp or dusty floor. They also give you somewhere to store the cables and torch.Make sure the kit is made for your unit and is rated for its weight, and be careful on slopes and uneven ground.
