Eastwood Versa Cut 40 Amp Plasma Cutter

Product Overview:

Description

Enjoy professional cutting power on small to medium metal fabrication projects with the Eastwood Versa-Cut 40 plasma cutter. This portable plasma cutter has an adjustable output up to 40 Amps to cleanly slice through steel from as thin as 24-gauge to as thick as 3/8-in. thick. You can use it on stainless steel and aluminum, too.

The Versa-Cut 40 weighs just 24-lbs, requires only 5-7 CFM of compressed air, and can plug into a 120V or 240V power input, making it an exceptionally versatile and portable unit that you can take anywhere it’s needed.

The included Trafimet CB50 torch has a long 20-ft. cable for maximum maneuverability as you work. It also uses common-style consumables that are available from most local welding supply shops. A 60% duty cycle gives you plenty of up-time to complete long cuts.

The Versa-Cut 40 uses modern IGBT inverter technology and features 2T/4T modes for smoother long cuts, a breaker switch, and a digital amperage readout for precision. Its pilot arc feature delvers an instant arc when cutting difficult materials like rusted steel or expanded metal.

And it’s all backed up by Eastwood’s 3-year warranty, hassle-free 90-day return policy, and lifetime tech support.

**Due to its high-frequency start feature, we do not recommend using this machine on a CNC plasma table.**

The Eastwood Versa-Cut 40 features:

  • Operates on either 120V or 240V power
  • 40-amp output easily slices through metal up to 3/8-in thick
  • Requires 7 cfm or less of compressed air
  • Pilot arc feature allows for instant arc striking when cutting rusty material or expanded metal
  • 2T/4T torch mode reduces fatigue on long cuts
  • Digital amperage readout for increased precision
  • Trafimet CB50 cutting torch with 20-ft cable uses commonly available consumables
  • Convenient 10-ft ground cable with clamp
  • Lightweight and portable at less than 24 lbs
  • Backed by Eastwood's no-hassle return policy and 3-year warranty
