Thermal Dynamics® Tip, 80 Amp Standoff and Drag Shield Cutting (pkg of 5) No. 9-8211

For SL60® and SL100® Manual Standoff or Drag Shield Cutting Operation

Standoff Cutting

The preferred method of cutting metal thicker than 1/4" (6 mm) and at current levels above 60 Amps. Provides maximum visibility and accessibility. Shield cup for 'standoff' cutting (with the torch tip 1/8" (3 mm) to 1/4" (6 mm) from the work piece). Use the shield cup body together with the deflector for extended parts life and improved resistance to reflect heat. This combination provides cutting results similar to the single piece shield cup, as well as easy changeover to gouging or drag shield cutting.

Drag Shield Cutting

This is an operator -friendly method of cutting between 70 to 120 Amps while maintaining a constant standoff distance. For metal thickness greater than 1/4" (6mm), simply drag the shield cap in contact with the work piece. Use the shield cup body with the appropriate drag shield cap matching the current level being used. This method is not recommended for cutting light-gauge sheet metal.

Precision Engineered Torch Tips

1Torch is a completely new tip technology. Each tip is uniquely tuned to optimize cut performance at its rated cutting current. The result is precision gas management, longer consumable parts life and better cut performance across the entire range of 1Torch tips.
