OVERVIEW

High-Performance Manual Plasma Cutting Torch

The Thermal Dynamics SL100 75° Hand Torch (Part #7-5202) represents a significant advancement in plasma cutting technology. Designed as part of the 1Torch family, this unit is engineered to provide superior performance across a wide range of industrial applications. With a robust amperage range of 20 to 120 amps, the SL100 is capable of severing materials up to 1-1/4 inches thick, making it an ideal choice for medium to heavy-duty fabrication tasks. The torch comes equipped with a 20-foot (6.1 meter) lead, offering substantial reach for workshop environments.

One of the defining characteristics of the SL100 is its universal compatibility. Utilizing the RPT (Replacement Plasma Torch) technology, it is the first plasma torch designed to work with virtually all plasma cutting power supplies. Whether your system utilizes High Frequency, Capacitive Discharge (CD), Touch Start, or Blowback (moving parts) start mechanisms, the SL100 integrates seamlessly. This versatility allows facilities to standardize on a single torch platform, significantly simplifying consumable inventory and maintenance procedures.

The physical design of the torch prioritizes operator comfort and durability. The ergonomic handle features a natural grip and an easy-to-access trigger release, reducing hand fatigue during extended cutting sessions. The 75-degree head angle is the industry standard for general manual cutting, providing an optimal balance between visibility and torch control. Additionally, the leads are constructed from lightweight yet rugged materials, ensuring they remain flexible while resisting abrasion and heat in tough shop conditions.

Consumable management is streamlined with the SL100. The torch uses a simplified set of consumables that cover the full amperage range, meaning fewer parts to stock. Precision-engineered shield cups, electrodes, and tips ensure consistent arc quality and extended part life. For operators requiring precision, the extended tip options offer excellent visibility for drag cutting applications.

FAQ

The Thermal Dynamics SL100 torch has a maximum cutting capacity of up to 1-1/4 inches (approx. 32mm) when operating at its full 120A capacity.

The SL100 is designed with 1Torch RPT technology, making it compatible with virtually all plasma power supplies, including those using High Frequency, CD, Touch, or Blowback start systems.

The SL100 torch is rated for a duty cycle of 100% at 100 Amps and 60% at 120 Amps.

The 7-5202 SKU typically comes with the standard RPT (O2B) connection. While the torch is ATC-ready, this specific part number is often listed as the standard hard-wired or adapter-based configuration. For a specific ATC quick-disconnect lead set, other part numbers like 7-5206 may be required.

The torch requires an air pressure of 65-75 PSI and a gas flow rate of approximately 400 SCFH.

It uses standard Thermal Dynamics SL100 consumables. The system is designed to use a minimal number of parts to cover the full 20-120A range.

This package (7-5202) includes 20-foot (6.1 meter) leads.

Yes, with the appropriate shielded consumables, the SL100 supports drag cutting even at high amperages (up to 120A with specific parts), as well as precision drag cutting at lower amperages.
