Hypertherm expands Duramax retrofit torches

June 01, 2011

Hypertherm is expanding its line-up of Duramax retrofit torches and consumables. The torches are now approved for use on Hypertherm's Powermax1650, in addition to the Powermax1000 and Powermax1250, and a new straight torch (HRTs) joins the previously released 75 degree, ergonomic hand torch (HRT) and convertible machine torch (MRT). The new straight torch, designed for handheld cutting, makes it easy to cut and gouge in hard-to-reach areas. This marks the first time a handheld, straight torch is available for Hypertherms Powermax1000, Powermax1250, and Powermax1650 systems. Hypertherm is the only plasma manufacturer in the world to offer a straight, handheld plasma torch.

As Fran Prokop of Aggregate Industries explains, "The angle of the torch is perfect for gouging, it keeps the molten metal and heat away from my hand and the Duramax consumables last two times as long. The torch is awesome, I'm lucky to have it."

"The availability of three different torch styles designed for 40 through 100 Amp cutting and gouging with both 25 foot and 50 foot torch lead options gives owners of the Powermax1000, Powermax1250, and Powermax1650 access to the most versatile family of torches on the market today," said Clayton Gould, Product Marketing Manager at Hypertherm.
