    The FlushCut™ process for Powermax 125 systems provides users with the ability to cut closer to base materials than ever before.

    Reduce time-consuming and costly grinding.

    Close cutting for removing lugs and other attachments has typically been performed via oxyfuel cutting or carbon arc gouging, followed by labour-intensive grinding. FlushCut for Powermax plasma systems provides a new, more efficient process for challenging removal applications.

    The patented consumable design for FlushCut features an angled nozzle bore design which delivers the plasma arc at a 45° angle – essentially bending the plasma arc. This unique design gives Powermax users the ability to cut closer or more flush to the base than ever before which significantly reduces grinding and increases the opportunity to reuse pad eyes, attachments and other temporary weld supports.

    Hypertherm Consumables FAQs

    Straightforward answers on choosing, fitting and replacing the consumable parts in a plasma cutting torch.

    How do I make sure I order the right consumables for my plasma torch?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    Start with the torch and power source rather than the part you can see. Consumables are normally specific to the torch type, the cutting current and whether the torch is a hand or machine version, so a part that looks the same may not fit or may not suit your current.

    Check the data plate and the maker's manual, which normally lists every consumable by part number for each current setting. Compare the old part with the new one before fitting, and if you are unsure, our team can help you work it out from the torch details.

    How do I know when to replace the electrode and nozzle?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    Falling cut quality is usually the first sign: rougher edges, more dross, a bevelled cut or a changed sound from the arc. Look at the parts too. A nozzle whose orifice is nicked, oval or rounded at the edge should be replaced, and an electrode with a deep pit in the centre of its insert is due for replacement.

    The pit depth that counts as worn differs between makers and electrode types, so use the figure in your torch manual rather than guessing. Do not wait until the part fails completely, as a failing electrode can damage the nozzle.

    What is the difference between a hand shield and a machine shield?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    A hand-cutting shield is designed for dragging the torch lightly along the plate or holding it at a short standoff. A machine (mechanised) shield is designed for a torch held at a fixed height on a table, track or robot.

    Using the wrong one can make the torch ride at the wrong height or cut poorly, so match the shield to how you actually use the torch. Some parts are common to both versions of a torch and some are not, so confirm in the manual for your torch and current.

    Do the retaining cap and swirl ring need replacing, and how often?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    They generally last much longer than the electrode and nozzle, but they are not permanent. Check them every time you change consumables. A retaining cap with cracks or damaged threads, or a swirl ring with blocked or damaged holes, should be replaced.

    If fresh electrodes and nozzles do not cure a problem such as a rough or unstable arc, the swirl ring is a sensible next thing to inspect. Keep the threads and seating faces clean, because dirt there wears them over time.
