Choose the hand torch consumables
Duramax retrofit torches are shipped with a full set of cutting consumables pre-installed. Hypertherm also includes spare 
cutting electrodes, nozzles, and gouging consumables in the consumables box, for handheld torches.
Consumables for handheld cutting are shown on the next page. Notice that the retaining cap and electrode are the same for 
cutting, gouging, and FineCut
®
 applications. Only the shield, nozzle, and swirl ring are different.
For the best cut quality on thin materials, you may prefer to use FineCut consumables, or use a 45A nozzle and reduce the 
current setting to 45 or 40 amps.
