Marking
For scoring, indicating part identification, hole or weld locations
Max control gouging
For precise metal removal, shallower gouge profiles and light metal washing
Max removal gouging
For aggressive metal removal, deep gouge profiles, and extreme metal washing
Mechanized cutting
For portable automation and table cutting
Precision gouging

Benefits
More consumable life
Conical Flow™ nozzle and Spring electrode give you up to 6 times longer consumable life than standard PAC121, PAC123 and PAC125 torches and consumables – reducing consumables costs by up to 30%
For even greater savings, CopperPlus™ long life electrodes provide dramatically longer service life than standard consumables when cutting metal 1/2" and under.
