5. ✅ Material thickness: 1/4" to 1/2" (6-12mm)
6. ✅ General fabrication work

Material Thickness Guide:

Optimal Range: 6 mm - 12 mm (1/4" - 1/2")Recommended: Stay within this range for best results

Below 6mm (1/4"):- Consider 45A cartridge (428925)- Or 30-45A FineCut (428926) for thin material

Above 12mm (1/2"):- Consider 85A cartridge (428934)- Better speed and quality on thicker material

Exceeding optimal range:- Decreases cutting speed- Reduces cut quality- May shorten cartridge life
