Plasma cutting nozzles feature composite tungsten inserts

Thermacut has expanded its line of Tungsten EX-® nozzles, which are suitable for use as replacement parts for Hypertherm®'s HPR 130/260®, MAX200®, and HT4400® plasma cutting systems.

The nozzle has two parts: a traditional copper base and a composite tungsten insert. According to the manufacturer, the nozzles can last up to three times longer than standard copper nozzles. When they are paired with the company's Silver EX-® or Silver Pro® electrodes, overall consumable set life can be extended up to three times longer than standard copper nozzles and electrodes, the company states.
