Plasma Cutters, Oxy Kits, and Accessories Hire

Plasma cutters are the preferred choice for clean, neat cuts in intricate areas. Oxy acetylene torches tend to create more splatter, making them more suitable for outdoor or heavy duty tasks.

You can cut stainless steel with an oxy acetylene kit, but it often results in a messy cut due to its higher chromium content. Aluminium is also difficult to cut with an oxy acetylene torch due to its low melting point and oxide layer. A plasma cutter is usually a better choice for both metals.

Plasma cutters require a power source for operation. Before deciding on your plasma cutter hire, confirm whether the unit you are renting runs on single- or three-phase electricity. It is also worth checking whether it includes a compressor or requires external air to run.
