Electrode 420258 Silver Core 1.6mm for XPR Plasma Cutting Torch Consumables 170A
We specialize in providing high-quality plasma cutting parts including Shield, Retaining Cap, Nozzle, Swirl Ring, and Electrode. We can provide compatible parts for Hypertherm, Thermadyne, Kjellberg, and ESAB brands.
Key Features:
Silver Core Technology: The internal silver insert provides a robust mechanical bond between the copper body and the hafnium tip. This "press-fit" design prevents the tip from becoming loose or falling out due to thermal expansion and contraction during high-current cutting.
Extended Service Life: The secure fit and superior thermal conductivity of silver drastically reduce heat-related wear and cracking, leading to a longer consumable lifespan and reduced downtime compared to standard swaged electrodes.
Stable Arc Initiation: Precision-machined to exact OEM specifications to ensure perfect centering within the nozzle. This results in a stable, focused plasma arc for cleaner cuts, reduced dross, and improved edge quality.
Superior Heat Dissipation: High-purity copper body combined with silver core efficiently dissipates heat, maintaining dimensional stability even during prolonged 170A cutting sessions.
OEM Drop-In Replacement: Designed as a direct drop-in replacement for Hypertherm part number 420258. Simply install it into the retaining cap as part of your regular maintenance routine.
