Where it is used

ESAB Cutmaster 120 applications and industries

  • Heavy plate and structural steel cutting at a 40 mm recommended production cut, with 55 mm available as a severance cut.
  • Shipbuilding and plate preparation, where the 25 mm pierce rating determines whether a cut can be started in the material.
  • Demolition and scrapping, where cut speed through heavy section matters more than edge quality.
  • Plasma gouging for weld removal and repair preparation, with five gouging tip profiles up to 120 A.
  • Cutting mesh and expanded metal using the Auto-Restrike function.
  • Rental fleets and pipeline maintenance, where the quick-disconnect torch allows fast maintenance or machine torch conversion.

Features

ESAB Cutmaster 120 features and capability

True Cut 40 mm capacity

ESAB rate the machine at a 40 mm (1-1/2″) recommended cut with a 55 mm (2-1/8″) maximum. The recommended figure is the one to plan production around — maximum severance is a cut you can make, not a cut you want to make repeatedly.

Quick-disconnect torch

The torch disconnects quickly for maintenance or for conversion to a machine torch. For a rental fleet or a shop running shifts, a torch change that does not require stripping the machine is the difference between a short interruption and a lost afternoon.

Auto-Restrike on mesh and expanded metal

Auto-Restrike re-establishes the cutting arc automatically when it is interrupted, so the arc crosses each gap in mesh or grating and restarts on the next strand without the operator re-triggering.

True-Guard roll bar

A True-Guard roll bar protects the unit in the rough handling of site, yard and demolition work, where plasma units are dropped, struck and loaded alongside steel.

TD Surelok torch technology

TD Surelok holds the consumable stack in precise alignment, which ESAB state delivers better quality cuts and longer parts life. Consumable life is the dominant running cost on a plasma system, so alignment is an economic specification as much as a quality one.

Five gouging tip profiles

Gouging tips are chosen by profile rather than guesswork: Tip A at 40 A maximum for shallow and narrow, Tip B at 50–100 A for deep and narrow, Tip C at 60–120 A for moderate and moderate, Tip D at 60–120 A for shallow and wide, and Tip E at 120 A for moderate and wide.

Complete package as supplied

Packages include the power source, SL100 1Torch, spare parts kit, air filter/regulator, work cable and clamp, and power cable — so the system cuts on arrival without a separate consumables order.

Frequently asked

ESAB Cutmaster 120 — common questions

How thick can the ESAB Cutmaster 120 cut?

40 mm is the recommended production cut and 55 mm the maximum severance cut, with a 25 mm pierce rating. Plan work around the 40 mm figure; the 55 mm is a cut you can make rather than one you would make repeatedly.

What is the difference between the Cutmaster 120 and the Cutmaster 100?

The 120 is rated 120 A for a 40 mm recommended cut, 55 mm maximum and 25 mm pierce, at 28.1 kg. The 100’s published figures are currently under verification with ESAB because its factsheet contradicts itself, so we are not quoting a comparison until that is settled — ask us and we will give you the confirmed position.

What power supply does the Cutmaster 120 need?

A 400 V three-phase supply at 50/60 Hz, drawing 32 A. Output power is 15.4 kW with a 40% duty cycle at 120 A.

What air supply does the Cutmaster 120 need?

The torch requires 5.2 bar air pressure at 212 l/min consumption. Clean, dry air is the single biggest factor in plasma consumable life, so an air filter is not an optional extra in a humid coastal climate.

Can the Cutmaster 120 gouge?

Yes, with five gouging tip profiles. Tip A (40 A max) gives a shallow narrow groove, Tip B (50–100 A) deep and narrow, Tip C (60–120 A) moderate and moderate, Tip D (60–120 A) shallow and wide, and Tip E (120 A) moderate and wide. A gouging shield cap (9-8241) is also required.

What consumables does the SL100 1Torch use?

The main wear parts are the electrode (9-8215), start cartridge (9-8213, or heavy duty 9-8277), drag tip for 60 A (9-8252) or standoff tip for 120 A (9-8253), and shield cup (9-8218, or max life 9-8237).

Can the Cutmaster 120 cut expanded metal and mesh?

Yes. Auto-Restrike re-establishes the arc automatically as it crosses gaps, so the operator does not re-trigger at every strand.
