Kempton Park trade counter
Our Kempton Park trade counter is set up for plasma consumables only, with parts packed by torch series and part type for collection. If you are not collecting, we can arrange courier dispatch to workshops and cutting shops across South Africa.
What the counter service covers
This service is for replacement plasma consumables only. We supply electrodes, nozzles, shields, swirl rings and retaining caps matched to the torch series you use, whether you need a few wear parts for the afternoon shift or bulk packs for regular cutting work. We do not sell machines, cutting tables, power units or repair work from this counter.
Orders are packed by torch series, then checked against amperage range, hand or mechanised use and the part type requested. That matters because a nozzle that looks close on the shelf can still be wrong for the torch body, shield style or current range in service.
- M1 series parts for lighter hand cutting applications
- M2 series parts for 60 to 85 A torches
- M3 series parts for higher-current machine torches
- M4 series parts for heavy mechanised cutting
- M5 series fine-cut and marking consumables
- Single items, matched sets and bulk pack quantities
How collection and dispatch works
Our trade counter works from your torch series and quantities. Once we have that, the counter team checks the requested items against the amperage band and the cutting application, then packs the order for collection from Kempton Park or books it for courier dispatch. Shops on the East Rand often collect directly, while out-of-town orders move by courier to every province.
If your workshop is under pressure, send the quantities with the torch series and confirm whether you want collection or courier through our contact form. Counter collections are handed over as packed parts, and courier orders go out with the item count matched to the picking list. Small mistakes at this stage waste a shift, so we check each line carefully.
- Step 1: send the torch series and part quantities
- Step 2: we match items to the series and duty range
- Step 3: the order is packed as singles, sets or bulk packs
- Step 4: collect from the Kempton Park counter or send by courier
- Step 5: check the labels before the parts go onto the shop floor
Details to prepare before you place the order
The easiest orders are the ones backed by clear workshop information. If the team on the floor can read the torch series from current stock labels or from the torch documentation, the right parts can be packed without guesswork. When there is unusual wear, include that as well because poor air quality and over-amping can shorten part life.
It helps if you prepare a simple list before sending the enquiry. A photo of the worn parts can help with a cross-check, and the torch series is the main reference. If you only ask for “tips and electrodes” there is usually one extra round of checking, and that slows collection.
- Torch series, such as M1, M2, M3, M4 or M5
- Part type needed: electrode, nozzle, shield, swirl ring or retaining cap
- Amperage range used on the floor
- Hand torch or mechanised torch setup
- Required quantity, including whether you want bulk packs
- Collection from Kempton Park or courier to site
How pricing is worked out
Pricing is based on the part type, the torch series and the quantity on the order. Electrodes and nozzles are usually priced per item or per pack, while matched wear sets can be costed as grouped lines where that makes picking easier. Bulk pack pricing depends on the exact mix and count because one shop may take one series only, while another needs several ranges packed together.
Courier charges are separate from the consumables unless the order is arranged for collection. Final pricing also depends on whether the order is made up of standard stock lines or a larger mixed pick for several torches in the same workshop. Where part life has been poor, it may be worth adjusting the order mix to suit the job. Adding more of the same line can lead to more stoppages later.
Counter checks, packing and aftercare
Before handover or dispatch, the packed order is checked against the requested series and quantities. Labels matter here because many cutting shops keep more than one torch size in service, and a mixed shelf can lead to the wrong nozzle being fitted during a busy shift. Parts are supplied clean, counted and packed for workshop storage or immediate use.
After collection or delivery, keep each series separated in the stores area and rotate older stock forward. If a consumable is wearing unusually fast, compare the used part with the correct amperage and air condition at the machine before fitting the next set. Worn electrodes, air quality and common causes of short part life are worth checking when wear patterns change.
- Check labels against the torch series before opening packs
- Store fine-cut parts separately from standard cutting parts
- Keep electrodes and nozzles paired to the correct current range
- Monitor air quality where edge quality drops suddenly
- Use the life guides if wear patterns start changing
Kempton Park location and service reach
The trade counter operates from Kempton Park, close to the East Rand industrial belt and near O.R. Tambo airport routes. That location suits nearby fabrication shops, site maintenance teams and production cutters that need stocked plasma wear parts without adding machines or repairs to the same order.
For customers outside Gauteng, courier dispatch keeps the service practical across South Africa. Accuracy starts with the torch series and the correct part selection. Whether the order goes to a workshop in Mpumalanga, a coastal shop dealing with humid air or a plant in the Northern Cape, the picking method stays the same and the labels stay clear.

Questions we get asked
Can I collect a small order over the counter?
Small picks and larger workshop quantities can both be packed for collection, provided the torch series and part types are clear on the order.
Do you sell complete plasma machines or repair torches?
This counter handles plasma consumables only. We do not sell machines, tables, power units or repair services.
What is the best way to avoid ordering the wrong parts?
Send the torch series, amperage range, part types and quantities through our contact form. If wear has been unusual, include that note so the order can be checked more carefully.
