220541 - HPR260XD Mild Steel Bevel Electrode - 260A

High-Performance 260A Bevel Electrode for Mild Steel

The Hypertherm 220541 Electrode is a critical consumable designed for the rigorous demands of mechanized plasma cutting. Specifically engineered for use with HyPerformance plasma systems, including the HPR260, HPR260XD, HPR400XD, and HPR800XD, this electrode is optimized for 260 Amp bevel cutting processes on mild steel. In industrial fabrication, precision and durability are paramount, and this electrode delivers consistent arc quality to ensure clean, accurate bevels that are ready for welding or further processing.

Constructed from high-quality copper, the 220541 electrode offers superior thermal conductivity and electrical efficiency. The design incorporates Hypertherm's advanced technology to manage the high heat generated during 260A operations, significantly extending the life of the consumable compared to standard alternatives. This longevity translates to reduced downtime for consumable changes and lower overall operating costs for fabrication shops. The electrode functions as the focal point of the plasma arc, and its integrity is essential for maintaining the cut quality expected from HyPerformance systems.

This component is specifically tailored for bevel cutting, a process that requires a stable and focused arc to cut at angles other than 90 degrees. Whether preparing plate edges for heavy welding or creating complex geometric shapes, the 220541 ensures that the plasma stream remains coherent and powerful. It is compatible with oxygen or air plasma gases, providing flexibility depending on the specific setup and requirements of the job. As a key part of the torch assembly, it works in unison with the nozzle, swirl ring, and shield to shape the plasma jet.

Operators using the HPR series systems rely on genuine-spec consumables to maintain the machine's duty cycle and performance ratings. Using the correct electrode for the material and amperage is crucial; the 220541 is the definitive choice for 260A mild steel beveling. This pack contains 5 electrodes, ensuring you have the necessary stock to keep your production line moving efficiently.
