One Plasma Cutter, Two Types of Cutting

Standard Consumables

Standard consumables are used when you want the Powermax 33 XP's higher-power cutting capability on thicker material.

FineCut Consumables

FineCut consumables are designed for thinner metal where a narrower kerf and finer cut quality are more important. Hypertherm also recommends FineCut consumables when cutting on 120 V input power.
