63991045 - Arcair SLICE Industrial Exothermic Cutting System Pack 120V

High-Performance Exothermic Cutting System with Integrated Charging

The Arcair SLICE Industrial Pack (SKU: 63991045) represents the pinnacle of exothermic cutting technology, engineered for professional welders and fabricators who demand reliability and performance. This comprehensive system is designed to support the SLICE process, which uses a special exothermic cutting rod and oxygen to generate temperatures hot enough to melt through refractory materials. The pack includes the SLICE torch, striker, and a heavy-duty cart equipped with a battery box and charger, providing a complete station for thermal cutting operations.

Technological improvements in this model focus on consumable life and operator control. The system features an improved striker assembly incorporating a slide mechanism. This innovation allows the operator to expose only a small portion of the copper ignition bar at a time, significantly increasing the life of the striker bar and reducing consumable costs. The torch itself has been redesigned with an ergonomic handle and a robust rubber shield, improving handling characteristics and shielding the user's hand from the intense heat and spatter generated during deep piercing or gouging applications.

The electrical system of the pack is robust and intelligent. The improved battery box offers faster recharging capabilities for the required 12-volt battery (Group 24 or similar, sold separately). It includes a visual "gas gauge" style indicator that provides immediate feedback on battery condition, ensuring the operator is never caught with insufficient power for ignition. Additionally, an over-charging safeguard protects the battery and internal electronics, extending the lifespan of your power source. The entire assembly is mounted on a durable industrial cart with dimensions of 20 5/8" x 48 3/8" x 20", designed to navigate the rough terrain of industrial sites.

This system requires an industrial oxygen supply to sustain the exothermic reaction once the rod is ignited. The combination of the high-amperage capable torch, the efficient striker, and the managed power system makes the SLICE Industrial Pack a superior choice for structural steel erectors, scrap yards, and maintenance crews requiring a standalone cutting solution capable of defeating any material obstacle.
