Draper Expert High Frequency Plasma Cutter, 40A

Make fast, clean cuts through a wide range of metals with the Draper Expert 40A High Frequency Plasma Cutter. Built for professionals and serious DIY users, this compact inverter plasma cutter combines advanced IGBT technology with a high frequency pilot arc start, giving you reliable ignition and smooth, accurate cutting every time.

Capable of slicing through stainless steel, aluminium, mild steel and other metals up to 12mm thick, the IPC40 is a versatile addition to any workshop, fabrication shop or garage. The high frequency pilot arc means the arc strikes without the torch tip touching the workpiece — reducing wear on consumables and making it easier to cut rusty, painted or coated surfaces.

A clear digital meter lets you monitor your settings at a glance, while the integrated gas regulator and adjustable 20–40A amperage range give you precise control over different metals and thicknesses. Built-in thermal overload protection guards the machine against overheating, helping to extend its working life.

At just 9.4kg, the IPC40 is light enough to move around the workshop or take to the job, yet powerful enough to handle demanding cutting tasks.
