Alpha 3 Plasma Torch

Weldmart-Online LLC has been importing the Trafimet S-45® plasma torch for over eight years. Since the name Trafimet® was virtually unknown in the continental United States, we adopted the torch and renamed it the Alpha 3. For those unfamiliar with Trafimet, we often refer to Trafimet® as the “Hypertherm of Europe”. The Trafimet S-45® has proven to be a remarkably robust plasma torch, inexpensive to buy, easy to install, and simple to maintain.

The Alpha 3 a non-“high-frequency” arc starting torch. This type of arc starting is commonly referred to as "blow-back" arc starting.

The Alpha 3 plasma torch is designed for cutting currents up to 40 amps. The power cable, torch head, electrode, and shield cup are "heavy duty." There is one electrode for currents from 15 to 40 amps. This torch is not only less expensive to buy and maintain compared to the original OEM torch, but it will also give the user a much greater service life.

When you order your Alpha 3 plasma torch from Weldmart-Online LLC, it will come complete with the proper adapter (or the quick-disconnect plug installed) for your power supply, complete installation instructions, and a toll-free help line.

  

This versatile torch uses a common design, and the parts are interchangeable with many other manufacturers, making it easy to find parts at your local welding shop. All parts for torch repair and all of the consumables are available for immediate shipment and can be found in Weldmart's online store.
