New Cutmasterblack series, plasma cutting consumables last 60% longer, help cut 16.6 percent thicker metal
ESAB has launched its new Cutmaster® Black Series to the classic car
industry. The series is comprised of enhanced performance plasma cutting
consumables, which extend operating life by 60 percent compared to standard
life electrodes. They are featured on the SL60QD™ 1Torch®, which comes with the
Cutmaster
60i handheld air plasma cutting system. Coupled with internal enhancements
on the Cutmaster 60i, the new electrode design increases the unit’s rated cut
and piercing capacity to 20 mm, a 16.6 percent improvement. The Cutmaster 60i
can sever metal up to 38 mm.
“At 16.8kgs, the Cutmaster 60i already offered the best power-to-weight
ratio on the market. With the Cutmaster Black Series consumables, this 60-amp
unit is even more of a cutting beast,” says Kris Scherm, Global Manual Plasma
Business & Product Director, ESAB. “With Cutmaster Black Series
consumables, users will enjoy lower overall operating costs through extended
electrode life and obtain more quality cuts per electrode.”
Mechanised Torch Option
For users who want the flexibility to connect a Cutmaster 60i to a cutting table for semiautomated air plasma cutting, ESAB now offers the MechPak mechanised package. MechPak comes with everything users need to get started, including an SL100 mechanised 1Torch with a 7.6 m or 15.2 m cable, remote pendant, lead with ATC® Torch Connection and consumables.
“The MechPak features a power
connector for a start/stop trigger integrated with the ATC Torch Connection,”
says Scherm. “Typically applications would include pairing the Cutmaster 60i
and MechPak with an ESAB Miggytrac™ or Railtrac™ tractor for semiautomatic cutting, beveling or plasma
gouging.”
