Nozzle 220975 Plasma Cutting Torch Consumables 105-125A compatible parts for Hyperthem POWERMAX125 fit 220971 220976

1. Product Identification & Critical Correction

• Hypertherm Part Number: 220975

• Actual Name: Swirl Ring

• This is NOT a Nozzle. The description is fundamentally incorrect. Part number 220975 is a swirl ring, a critical component that sits inside the retaining cap.

Primary Function: The swirl ring has angled ports that spin the incoming plasma gas into a vortex. This spinning action stabilizes and concentrates the arc, which is essential for achieving a clean, straight cut and protecting the electrode and nozzle from uneven wear.

2. Key Specifications

• Amperage Rating: The description "105-125A" is partially correct. This swirl ring is used in the higher-amperage (105A & 125A) consumable sets for specific Hypertherm systems.

• Compatible Systems: This swirl ring is designed for Hypertherm Powermax85 and Powermax105 systems.

• It is NOT a standard part for the Powermax125.

3. Clarification of Stated Compatibility ("fit 220971 220976")

This compatibility claim is incorrect and mixes parts from two different Hypertherm platforms.

1. With Set 220971:

• 220971 is a Drag & Cut Consumable Set for the Powermax125.

• Incorrect Compatibility: The swirl ring included in set 220971 is part number 220777.

• Swirl Ring 220975 (for Powermax85/105) has a different physical size and will not fit correctly inside a Powermax125 retaining cap.

2. With Part 220976:

• 220976 is a Retaining Cap for the Powermax85 and Powermax105.

• This is CORRECT. Swirl Ring 220975 and Retaining Cap 220976 are designed to work together as part of the Powermax85/105 consumable system.

Summary of Compatibility Error: The description correctly links 220975 to 220976 (both for Powermax85/105) but incorrectly links it to set 220971 (for Powermax125). This is a critical error.

4. The Correct Nozzles for the Stated Systems

To clarify what the actual nozzles are for these systems:

• For Powermax85/105 at 105A/125A: The nozzles used with swirl ring 220975 would be:

• 105A Nozzle: 220908

• 125A Nozzle: 220918

• For Powermax125 Set 220971 (65A Drag Cutting): The correct nozzle is:

• 65A Nozzle: 220778

5. Consequences of Using the Wrong Part

Using Swirl Ring 220975 in a Powermax125 torch (or with set 220971 components) will cause:

• Improper Fit: It will not seat correctly inside the Powermax125 retaining cap (420156), leading to misalignment.

• Unstable Arc: The gas flow will be incorrect, resulting in a wobbly, unfocused arc that cannot cut effectively.

• Poor Cut Quality: Severe bevel, excessive dross, and a rough finish.

• Catastrophic Consumable Failure: The misdirected arc will rapidly and violently erode the electrode and nozzle, destroying them.

6. Correct Consumable Sets & Compatibility

Swirl Ring 220975 is a component of the following Powermax85/105 consumable sets:

• Shielded Consumable Set (105A): Part Number 220915

• Shielded Consumable Set (125A): Part Number 220925

These sets include the correctly matched components:

• Electrode (e.g., 220909 for 105A)

• Nozzle (e.g., 220908 for 105A)

• Swirl Ring (220975)

• Retaining Cap (220976)

• Shield Cup (220974)
