1.6mm steel

Post by BensPlasmaAu »

I am currently using 45 amp consumables for cutting 1.6mm steel, im still to find a good speed compromise as the table is gettimg the bugs ironed out. Woukd I be better off using the 30 amp comsumables for this thin material?????

I have found the 30A consumables at 30A to be most excellent on 1.2mm stainless, speed as per book, height 0.5mm
