Weldcraft’s Super Cool 18 TIG Torch eliminates overheating

By General Aviation News Staff · December 16, 2005 ·

To eliminate overheating associated with 18 series 350 ampere water-cooled torches, Weldcraft introduces its Super Cool 18 TIG torch. The torch operates up to 400 amps and features a patented water-cooling chamber design to provide full-flow water cooling that prevents it from overheating. The addition of a stubby collet body adjacent to the water chamber enhances the cooling capacity of the torch, while also allowing for an optional gas lens to improve gas coverage.

Available with standard WP-18 long or short back caps, the Super Cool 18 uses standard gas lens alumina nozzles, hoses, power cables, and collets with special heavy-duty 1/8-, 5/32- and 3/16-inch models.

For more information: 800-752-7620.
