Thread: TIG torch consumables recommendations

  1. Default TIG torch consumables recommendations

    Does anyone know or have a link that gives general combination's of collet body/gas lens and cup size by a given tungsten diameter and/or amperage?
    Trying to get an order together to cover the WP9 and WP26 torches.
    Thanks in advance!

    Rengaw,
    The manual has a little bit of that in there in regard to amps and tungsten size. However, cup size is related to application, more than amperage.

    Here is a useful starting point:

    Hello,

    Ive been using weldcraft rare earth tungsten. Ive mostly worked on stainless with it. They have been working fine for me. Problem is I am not an expert and not absolutley sure everything that is suppose to be ideal. It doesnt seam to bead up on me or anything. The tip does round out a bit after some good current through it. Anybody who knows what they are doing used these?
