    I can't say as the 20 series torch I have is a Weldtec torch. I would assume that the Everlast torches are very similar and so they would be more flexible. I'm going to eventually get another smaller Everalst torch but it will be air cooled. Sometimes I have a small weld project that only needs a short weld time and an air cooled torch is the answer for me for that.

    Let me say this.....the Weldtech torch is nice....but I probably would have been better off with the Everlast 20 series.....it already is set up for connecting to the welder. I had to get adapters and a new dinse to get the Weldtec to work. It costs me an extra $100 above the cost of the torch. If I would have gotten an Everlast torch, it would have been pretty much a plug and play.

    that was my reasoning for thinking of sticking with the everlast wp20 torch. we have a ck 20 series with leather cover here at work. it's like a wet noodle in your hand.

    does everlast sell extended ground and pedal cables to go with the 25' torch leads??

    No.
    That's easily sourced locally. Cable can be bought by the foot, and a new clamp is about 10-15.00.

    Foot pedal wire can be extended easily too. Just good phone cord with at least 7 wires should do it. The braided would be the best.
