The Hypertherm 55 Amp Shielded Plasma Tip is a specialised consumable designed for the legendary Powermax 900 system and the high output PAC125 / 125T torch series. The "Shielded" design provides a protective air or gas barrier around the plasma arc, which not only stabilises the arc column for cleaner, straighter cuts but also allows the operator to drag the torch directly on the workpiece without risking catastrophic tip damage.
This tip is the professional’s choice for clean, accurate severance on mild steel, stainless, and aluminium. By utilising a shielded configuration, you benefit from improved "arc start" reliability and reduced slag adhesion, making it ideal for both high end artistic fabrication and industrial structural repair. Manufactured from high density tellurium copper, this tip maintains its precise orifice geometry even under the thermal stress of daily 55 A industrial duty cycles.
Sold in packs of 10 - great for everyday use or stocking.
Key Features
Shielded Arc Technology: Protects the nozzle face from spatter and allows for convenient "drag cutting" on the workpiece surface.
Universal PAC125/125T Compatibility: Guaranteed direct fit for Hypertherm Powermax 900 systems.
Optimised 55 A Output: Perfectly balanced for plate thicknesses up to 15mm (5/8"), providing clean edges and minimal heat affected zones.
Industrial Thermal Conductivity: Precision machined tellurium copper ensures rapid heat dissipation, preventing orifice "keyholing."
Reliable Arc Striking: Designed for consistent performance with Hypertherm’s blowback start torch technology.
Reduced Secondary Grinding: The shielded arc produces a tighter kerf, significantly lowering post cut clean up requirements.
