Get the Job Done Anywhere with the Hobart AirForce 40i

When your work demands mobility and power, the Hobart AirForce 40i Plasma Cutter is the tool you need in your arsenal. This completely redesigned machine is a powerhouse in a small package, perfect for the farm, the garage, or the job site. At only 21 pounds, it takes the strain out of hauling equipment, allowing you to focus on the cut. Whether you are fabricating brackets, repairing farm equipment, or customizing a vehicle, the AirForce 40i delivers clean, precise cuts on conductive metals including steel, stainless steel, and aluminum.

Plug in and Cut with Ease

Forget about rewiring or hunting for specific outlets. The AirForce 40i features the convenient MVP (Multi-Voltage Plug) system. You can switch between 120V and 240V input power in seconds—no tools required. Just swap the plug adapter, and you are ready to cut. This unit is also fully compatible with engine-driven welders (generators) that provide at least 8 kW of power, making it the ultimate mobile cutting solution for remote locations.

Reliable and Efficient Operation

The AirForce 40i is built to last, backed by Hobart's legendary 5/3/1 Industrial Warranty. It features Line Voltage Compensation (LVC), which keeps your output steady even if your input power fluctuates by +/- 15%, ensuring cleaner cuts every time. The XT40R torch is designed for comfort during long cuts and uses economical replacement tips. Plus, with the Pilot Arc Controller, you can cut expanded or perforated metals without having to constantly re-trigger the torch, saving you time and frustration.

Ready to Work Out of the Box

The Hobart AirForce 40i comes complete with everything you need to start cutting (except the air compressor). The package includes the XT40R torch, work cable with clamp, power cord with MVP adapters for both 50A (240V) and 15A (120V) outlets, and a starter kit of consumables. The built-in gas/air filter and regulator manage your air flow automatically, and the LED diagnostic lights make troubleshooting pressure or power issues a breeze.
