OVERVIEW

Reliable Cutting Power for Your XPR Table

Keep your production line moving with the genuine Hypertherm 420258 Electrode. If you are running an XPR170 or XPR300 plasma table, you know that cut quality and uptime are everything. This 170 Amp electrode is designed to handle the rigorous demands of cutting mild steel and aluminum day in and day out. It provides the consistent arc start and stable plasma stream you need to produce parts with minimal dross and excellent edge quality.

One of the standout features for operators is the QuickLock™ design. We've all struggled with cross-threading electrodes or over-tightening them in the middle of a rush job. With this electrode, those headaches are gone. It locks into the torch body with a firm quarter-turn, ensuring perfect alignment every time. This means you spend less time fiddling with the torch and more time cutting metal. It’s a small design change that makes a huge difference in daily operations.

This electrode is optimized for 170 Amp processes using Air or Oxygen. Whether you are fabricating structural components from mild steel or precision parts from aluminum, this consumable maintains its integrity longer than standard options. The superior copper construction dissipates heat effectively, preventing premature failure and extending the time between changes. This translates to lower operating costs per foot of cut.

Don't compromise your XPR system's performance with aftermarket knock-offs. The 420258 is an OEM part that guarantees fitment and performance. It ensures your machine delivers the "X-Definition" quality it was built for, giving you clean, square edges that often eliminate the need for secondary grinding or prep work. Stock up on these electrodes to ensure your shop is always ready for the next heavy-duty cutting job.
