Choose the hand torch consumables
Hypertherm includes a starter consumable kit (428099) with your Duramax Hyamp torch. The 45° and 90° long handheld
torches use the same consumables.
Hand torches use shielded consumables. Therefore, you can drag the torch tip along the metal.
Consumables for hand cutting are shown below. Notice that the retaining cap and electrode are the same for cutting,
gouging, and FineCut
® applications. Only the shield, nozzle, and swirl ring are different. Also notice that specific
consumables are not available for cutting at 85 A. Use the standard (drag-cutting) 105/125 A consumables to cut at
85 A.
For higher cut quality on thin materials (approximately 4 mm/10 GA or less), you may prefer to use FineCut consumables,
or use a 45 A nozzle and reduce the amperage to that setting.
