“Exceeding Customer Expectations Through Performance Excellence"

Valued Thermadyne Customer,

Thermal Dynamics has recently improved the 1Torch electrode (p/n 9-8215) and the Surelok electrode (p/n 9-8407).

The new design (on the right) provide more consistent and reliable starts which in the ends translates in more

consistent parts life.

The new electrodes will be put into stock in early December. The new design will be a direct replacement and will use

the same part number for a running change.

There is no need to purge old stock as the performance of the previous electrode is acceptable, this simply a confirmation

of our continued commitment to enhance our Thermal Dynamics Products every time we see an opportunity to do so.
