The Lincoln Electric LC105 Handheld Plasma Torch (K2849-1) is a premium replacement assembly designed specifically for the Tomahawk 1500 plasma cutting system. Engineered to meet the rigorous demands of industrial fabrication, this torch embodies Lincoln Electric's commitment to arc stability, consumable longevity, and operator safety. The LC105 utilizes advanced airflow dynamics to initiate the plasma arc reliably, ensuring clean starts and minimizing dross buildup on the workpiece. This is critical for professionals working with conductive metals such as mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and copper, where cut quality directly impacts downstream processing time.
The assembly features a 25-foot (7.5-meter) flexible cable lead, which provides a substantial working envelope for operators. This extended reach is particularly beneficial in large-scale environments such as shipyards, construction sites, and field erection projects where moving the power source is not always feasible. The cable itself is reinforced to resist abrasion and heat, common hazards in heavy industrial settings. The torch head is designed for rapid heat dissipation, maintaining optimal operating temperatures even during high-duty cycle applications like gouging or thick-plate severing.
Ergonomics play a vital role in the design of the LC105. The handle is contoured to fit naturally in the operator's hand, reducing grip strain and allowing for greater precision during intricate profile cutting. The trigger mechanism is positioned for intuitive actuation, supporting both gloved and bare-hand operation (though proper PPE is always required). Furthermore, the torch is designed to integrate seamlessly with the Tomahawk 1500's safety systems, ensuring that the arc cannot be initiated unless all parts are correctly seated, thereby protecting both the user and the equipment.
Maintenance and consumable replacement are streamlined with the LC105 architecture. The torch head accepts standard Lincoln Electric consumables (sold separately), allowing for quick changeovers between cutting and gouging setups. Whether performing maintenance repairs on heavy machinery or fabricating structural components, the K2849-1 restores the full capability of your plasma cutting system, delivering the power and precision expected from Lincoln Electric products.
