OVERVIEW

Genuine Hypertherm 020191 Electrode for MAX100 Systems

Maintain the industrial cutting power of your Hypertherm MAX100 plasma system with the genuine Hypertherm 020191 Electrode. As the primary point of arc emission in your plasma torch, the electrode plays a critical role in establishing and maintaining the high-energy plasma stream required to cut through thick metals. Designed specifically for the legacy MAX100 power source and PAC130 torches, this consumable is engineered to withstand the intense heat and electrical current of 100-amp operations.

The 020191 electrode features a robust copper body that excels at thermal conductivity, rapidly drawing heat away from the hafnium insert to prevent overheating and premature failure. The hafnium emitter is precisely embedded to ensure reliable arc starting and a stable cutting arc, which directly translates to cleaner cut edges and less dross buildup. Using authentic Hypertherm parts guarantees that your system operates within its factory specifications, protecting your torch head from damage caused by poor-fitting aftermarket copies.

At Josef Gas, we understand that downtime is costly. That's why we stock essential consumables like the 020191 electrode to keep your fabrication line moving. Whether you are cutting mild steel, stainless, or aluminum, replacing your electrode at the right time is key to efficiency. A worn electrode can lead to greening of the arc, loss of cut capability, and potential damage to the nozzle and swirl ring. Keep your MAX100 running like new with fresh, high-quality consumables.

Key Benefits of OEM Electrodes

  • Extended Life: Superior materials resist wear longer than generic alternatives.
  • Consistent Cuts: Stable arc focus delivers predictable kerf widths and edge quality.
  • System Protection: Exact dimensional tolerances prevent gas leaks and torch arcing.

FAQ

The 020191 electrode is designed specifically for the Hypertherm MAX100 plasma cutting system and the PAC130 torch.

You should replace the electrode when the pit depth in the center hafnium insert exceeds 0.040 inches (approx. 1mm). Using it beyond this point can damage the torch.

Yes, this is a genuine OEM Hypertherm 020191 electrode, ensuring the best fit and performance for your equipment.

This electrode is rated for 100 Amps, matching the output of the MAX100 power source.

Yes, the 020191 electrode is compatible with both shop air and nitrogen plasma gases.

No, the electrode is sold separately. The swirl ring (part number 020194) must be purchased separately if needed.

A worn electrode can cause the arc to turn green (burning copper), lose cutting power, and potentially melt inside the torch, destroying the torch head.
