I've been seeing a lot of folks starting to use the clear pyrex tig torch nozzles and was wondering if anyone with experience with them could comment on the usefulness of them. I mean what are the advantages of having a clear nozzle instead of the pink nozzles that are so common? I know that supposedly you can see the weld puddle better and also keep an eye on the electrode, but do they really work and are they worth it? For 20 or more bucks, they better have some advantage!
Always looking for an edge to get a better weld bead!
