• Design of electrode is similar to previous designed electrodes used in the PCH/M-60, 75, 76, 80, and 100XL
Torches.
• New patented locking design offers improved parts life, excellent piloting, improved arc transfer distance
and excellent arc characteristics as compared to older electrode designs.
• The General Purpose electrode is the standard electrode offered with SureLok RPT Replacement Torches
providing good all around characteristics and performance.
MaximumLife
TM
SureLok
TM
Electrode (Cat.No. 9-8407)

A. Only SureLok Electrodes, 9-8402 and 9-8407 may be used. Depending on the application and power supply
the General Purpose Electrode (9-8402) provides good all around characteristics and performance. The
MaximumLike™ Electrode (9-8407) design offers improved electrode cooling resulting in a significant im-
provement in parts life.
Q. Which Tip can be used?
A. All the Tips listed on the Appendix Page for the selected Power Supply application can be used. Select the
proper Tip for the desired application. It is recommended to use the Cutting/Drag Tip for general purpose
drag and light cutting applications. The Gouging Tip is recommended for gouging applications only. The
Standoff Tip can be used for standoff cutting applications for improved cut quality and speed.
Q. What if Electrode parts life is low?
