OVERVIEW

Precision Cutting with Hypertherm 420117

The Hypertherm 420117 FineCut Nozzle is a specialized consumable engineered exclusively for the Powermax 30 XP plasma cutting system equipped with the Duramax LT torch. Unlike standard nozzles designed for general-purpose severance, this FineCut component is developed to deliver superior cut quality on thin-gauge metals. By focusing the plasma arc into a tighter, more constricted stream, it allows operators to achieve intricate cuts with a significantly narrower kerf width.

Genuine Hypertherm consumables are manufactured to the highest tolerances, ensuring that the orifice geometry remains consistent for stable arc performance. The 420117 nozzle is essential for applications requiring high detail, such as HVAC ductwork fabrication, automotive body restoration, and artistic metalwork. When paired with the correct electrode and swirl ring, this nozzle facilitates a stiff, energy-dense arc that slices through mild steel and stainless steel with minimal dross accumulation.

Optimized for Duramax LT Torches

The Duramax LT torch is the standard hand torch for the Powermax 30 XP, known for its impact resistance and heat tolerance. The 420117 nozzle fits perfectly into this assembly, ensuring proper gas flow dynamics. Using non-OEM or incorrect nozzles can lead to poor cut angularity, excessive nozzle wear, and potential damage to the torch head. This nozzle is rated for 30 Amps, perfectly matching the output capabilities of the machine to prevent overheating while maximizing cutting speed on materials up to 10 gauge.

Technical Superiority

Hypertherm’s engineering team designs their consumables to work as a complete system. The thermal conductivity of the copper alloy used in the 420117 ensures efficient heat dissipation, prolonging the life of the part even during extended cutting cycles. For industrial MRO environments where downtime is costly, relying on genuine Hypertherm parts guarantees consistent ignition and cut quality, reducing the frequency of consumable changeovers and troubleshooting.

FAQ

The 420117 nozzle is designed specifically for the Hypertherm Powermax 30 XP system using the Duramax LT torch.

FineCut nozzles, like the 420117, have a smaller orifice designed to constrict the plasma arc. This produces a narrower kerf and higher precision on thin metals compared to standard nozzles which are optimized for thicker plate and faster speeds.

No, this specific part number (420117) is for the Duramax LT torch found on the Powermax 30 XP. The Powermax 45 XP uses Duramax Lock torches which require different FineCut consumables.

You should replace the nozzle when the center orifice becomes out-of-round, notched, or significantly enlarged. Poor cut quality, excessive dross, or a wandering arc are common signs of a worn nozzle.

It is highly recommended to inspect the electrode and swirl ring. If the electrode is worn (pit depth exceeds manufacturer specs), replace it. Using a new nozzle with a worn electrode can damage the new nozzle quickly.

This nozzle is rated for 30 Amps, which matches the maximum output of the Powermax 30 XP.

Yes, this is a genuine Hypertherm 420117 nozzle, manufactured to original equipment specifications for the best performance and life.

FineCut consumables are best suited for mild steel and stainless steel, typically 10 gauge (3.4 mm) and thinner, where detail and edge quality are critical.
