430-428746 - Hypertherm Powermax 45 XP FlushCut Consumable Kit

Revolutionize Your Cutting with the Hypertherm 428746 FlushCut Starter Kit

Take your Powermax 45 XP to the next level with the Hypertherm 428746 FlushCut Starter Kit. If you have ever struggled with removing lifting lugs, pad eyes, or temporary weld supports, you know the frustration of trying to cut close enough to minimize grinding without accidentally gouging the base plate. Hypertherm has solved this age-old fabrication problem with their innovative FlushCut consumables, now available for the Powermax 45 XP system. This kit contains the essential parts required to configure your Duramax Lock torch for flush cutting applications, turning your plasma cutter into a precision removal tool.

The magic lies in the patented design of the consumables. Unlike standard nozzles that emit the arc from the center, FlushCut nozzles feature an angled bore that directs the plasma arc to exit at a 45-degree angle relative to the torch axis. This allows the operator to lay the torch flat against the workpiece, using the specialized shield as a guide. The arc washes away the attachment while the shield protects the base metal. This process is vastly superior to using carbon arc gouging or oxy-fuel for similar tasks, as it produces less smoke, less noise, and a cleaner finish that requires minimal post-cut processing.

This starter kit is an all-in-one solution, packaged to get you up and running immediately. It includes the specific retaining cap, shield, nozzle, and swirl ring engineered for 45-amp operation. Whether you are working on truck bodies, agricultural equipment, or structural steel, the ability to wash away welds flush to the surface changes the workflow entirely. You spend less time changing grinding discs and repairing surface damage, and more time on fabrication. The Hypertherm 428746 kit is a testament to how specialized consumables can expand the utility of your welding and cutting equipment.

Why Choose FlushCut?

• Precision: The guiding flat on the shield ensures consistent torch height and angle.
• Speed: Removes attachments faster than grinding and cleaner than oxy-fuel.
