Can anyone identify this Plasma Cutting Torch?

admin

This torch came with a used Hypertherm MAX 40 and was not hooked up to the hoses.  I don't think it is the correct torch for this cutter.Thanks in advance,Tom Attached Images

Reply:Thanks!Panasonic?  Oh brother....The consumables look a lot like Hypertherm. (See Pic)   I wonder if this torch might work with the MAX 40? Attached Images
Reply:That is a Hypertherm Powermax 40 torch. It is the first hand held torch from Hypertherm....later units had a molded handle, the early ones were machined from delrin tubing, like the one in the picture. Built in 1985 or so....Jim Colt   Hypertherm
Reply:By the looks of it I would say that your best bet would be to get a replacement that utilizes common consummables.
