Introducing the Hobart 500564 Airforce 12ci Plasma Cutter, a game-changer for precision cutting that combines innovation and practicality. This advanced tool is not just your ordinary plasma cutter; it features a Built-in Air Compressor that streamlines your cutting experience by delivering faster cuts compared to traditional oxy-fuel methods. Whether you’re tackling metal fabrication or delicate craft projects, this cutter's ability to cut through 3/8" steel effortlessly while maintaining a compact and portable design makes it an invaluable asset to any workshop or job site.

The convenience of the built-in compressor eliminates the need for cumbersome external gas tanks, allowing for immediate and effective flame tuning. With a significantly smaller heat-affected zone, users can enjoy cleaner cuts with less slag left to clean up, enhancing overall efficiency. The lightweight build adds to its versatility, making it easy to transport to various locations, which is especially beneficial for professionals who require mobility in their work.

Users have praised the Hobart Airforce 12ci for its robust performance in challenging environments, such as correctional facilities, where precision and reliability are crucial. It’s important to note, however, that while this cutter is incredibly effective, patience is key. The duty cycle is optimized for performance, and users recommend connecting it to a dedicated high-amperage circuit for the best results—ideally a 30-amp circuit to avoid interruptions caused by inadequate power supply.

Whether you’re a seasoned fabricator or a beginner making your way into metalworking, the Hobart 500564 is designed to be user-friendly, offering a simple setup that gets you cutting almost immediately. Harnessing the power and expertise of Hobart, this product reassures users of its quality and performance, ensuring you can take on any task with confidence, no matter how big or small.
