cut gas.
CS - Carbon Steel, SS - Stainless Steel, AL - Aluminum
All Air Plasma/Air Shield, 100 Amp cuts on Aluminum have good surfaces except 3/4” (19mm) AL that has poor surface.
All Air Plasma/Air Shield, 100 Amp cuts on Stainless Steel have fair surface except 3/4” (19mm) SS that is very rough.
All N
2
Plasma/N2 Shield, 100 Amp cuts on Stainless Steel have fairly good surfaces except 3/4” (19mm) SS that is fair.
