Magnetic base and tape holder with built-in level.
Straight answers to the questions people ask most when choosing accessories for a plasma cutting system.
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.
A remote switch lets you turn the plasma system on and off, or control it, from a distance, so you can stay at the cutting position rather than walking back to the machine. It is useful on larger fabrications and on sites.Check that the pendant is made for your power source and that its connector matches the socket on your machine.
Dust and grit get into vents and connectors on busy sites and workshops, and a cover helps keep them clean when the machine is not in use. A torch sheath protects the lead from abrasion, heat and cuts, which extends its life.Covers should only be fitted when the unit is switched off, unplugged and cool. Never run the machine with a cover blocking the air vents.
