Hypertherm SmartSYNC Cartridge 65 A — Drag Cutting
The 65 A Drag Cutting Cartridge is the high-capacity handheld cutting cartridge for operators running a Powermax65, 85, or 105 SYNC® system. Optimised to cut metals up to 20 mm (3/4″) thick, it handles structural plate, heavier fabrication stock, and site cutting tasks that go beyond the 45 A cartridge's 16 mm capacity. The drag cutting technique — nozzle-to-workpiece contact — keeps operation straightforward with no standoff management required.

Product Highlights
- 20 mm (3/4″) cut capacity— handles structural steel plate, heavier sheet, and most general fabrication tasks a step above the 45 A cartridge

- Wide 20–65 A operating range— dial down for thinner material or run at full power for maximum cut capacity on heavier stock
- Broad system compatibility— works across Powermax65, 85, and 105 SYNC® platforms with direct SmartSYNC® cartridge installation
- Single-piece cartridge design— electrode, nozzle, and shield integrated into one unit; no loose parts to manage or misplace on site
- SmartSYNC® automatic setup— cartridge communicates directly with compatible power supplies for instant, error-free process configuration
- Duramax® adapter compatibility— also works with legacy Powermax65, 85, and 105 systems via the optional cartridge torch adapter
- Genuine Hypertherm OEM— manufactured to Hypertherm's exacting standards for consistent, repeatable cut quality across every use
Ideal Applications
- Structural Steel Fabrication - Cutting structural plate, RHS, channel, and flats up to 20 mm thick on site or in the workshop without CNC equipment
- Heavy Site & Field Cutting - Drag technique makes it easy to cut at site with no standoff to manage — practical for civil, mining, and industrial field work.
- Maintenance & Shutdown Work - Fast, accurate cutting of structural and mechanical components during planned and unplanned maintenance shutdowns.
- Workshop General Cutting - The everyday cutting cartridge for Powermax65/85/105 operators needing reliable handheld performance on a wide range of plate and sheet.
