Secondary Consumables

Secondary consumables support the primary cutting process by protecting key torch components and enhancing overall performance. These parts ensure torch reliability, operator safety, and optimal cutting quality.

Common Secondary Consumables:

Torch Handle and Housing

Durable ergonomic handle providing electrical insulation and operator comfort during extended use.
Includes protective outer casing and internal support structures.

Cable Assembly

Heavy-duty electrical and gas supply cables with integrated connectors.
Designed for flexibility, durability, and reliable connection between the torch and power source.
Includes strain reliefs to prevent cable damage during movement.

Trigger Switch

User-operated switch for initiating and controlling the plasma arc.
Built for responsive, reliable actuation and long service life.

O-Rings and Seals

Heat-resistant seals that maintain airtight gas flow and prevent leaks within the torch assembly.

Swirl Ring Retainers

Components that secure swirl rings in place, ensuring stable gas flow.

Gas Diffusers

Evenly distribute plasma and shielding gases around the electrode and nozzle for consistent cutting performance.

Cooling Components (for water-cooled models)

Tubing, fittings, and connectors to manage coolant flow, maintaining torch temperature within safe operating limits.

Maintenance Tip:
Regular inspection and replacement of secondary consumables, including the handle, cable assembly, and trigger switch, are critical to preventing downtime, maintaining torch safety, and extending the life of primary consumables.
