The Hypertherm 420240 is a genuine OEM 80-amp mechanized plasma cutting electrode designed for XPR170 and XPR300 systems. It is specifically engineered for cutting mild steel using Oxygen or Air as the plasma gas. The electrode utilizes SilverPlus technology, which incorporates a friction-welded silver/copper joint with a hafnium insert to manage heat and maintain arc stability. It also features the QuickLock connection system for tool-free installation and precise alignment within the torch assembly.
Features
QuickLock Technology: Enables electrode installation and removal with a quarter-turn, eliminating cross-threading and overtightening.
SilverPlus Technology: Uses a silver/copper joint to enhance heat dissipation and extend consumable life compared to standard copper electrodes.
X-Definition Cut Quality: Designed to produce dross-free cuts with sharp top edges on mild steel.
Geometric Stability: Engineered to withstand high-amperage electrical stress while maintaining arc focus.
Automatic Alignment: QuickLock system ensures consistent electrical contact and cooling flow.
Reduced Angular Deviation: Maintains a stable arc attachment point to minimize deviation in the cut face.
