How to Identify what type TIG torch you have...( don't worry, there are only 2 main styles of TIG torches)

When it comes to TIG torch parts, there are only 2 main types of TIG torches...#17, 18, 26  are one type.

And #9 and 20 are the other type

9 20 tig torch collet bodies

So all you need to do is take a look at your current TIG torch and see which collet body matches the photos above and then order either a kit for 17,18,26 style torch or a kit for #9 and 20 TIG torch.

One of the best things about a TIG kit is that you don't need to look up 50 different part numbers for collets, cups, gas lenses, end caps, heat insulators, and more.

All you need to do is identify the type torch you have and then order the TIG kit for your torch.

And then you can be 100% sure all the parts will fit your TIG torch.

We put Furick gas lenses with o-ring grooves in our Weldmonger® stubby gas lens kits so that you can easily upgrade to furick clear cups and other furick cups later without needing to buy adapter hardware. 
That is why people are saying "The Weldmonger Stubby Gas Lens kit is the Best Value TIG kit on the market!"

If you are still using the standard TIG cups and hardware that came with your machine or TIG torch, I can just about guarantee you will get better results if you upgrade to a weldmonger® stubby gas lens kit.

I have a friend named Ray who told me a story about his first day working at a new fab shop that built heat exchangers.

The very first job the Boss asked him to do was to repair 172 welds on a heat exchanger that had failed the hydro leak test.

The heat exchanger was made from Haynes 188 and was valued at over 90 thousand dollars and they were considering scrapping it out.

Haynes 188 welds a lot like stainless unless you get it all oxidized with poor gas coverage and then it welds like mud and can crack easily.

The part had been welded using a standard collet body cup and all the welds were crusty and dark with 172 of the welds leaking.

After grinding out all the defects, Ray put on a  #8 gas lens cup from his Weldmonger Stubby gas lens kit he had brought from home....

Then he set in to re weld all 172 leaks.

A few hours later he was done and all the welds passed a hydro leak test.

So on Rays first day on the job, he saved a 90 thousand dollar part from the scrap bin.

Here is the question....

What would it be worth to make that kind of first impression on your first day on the job?

When you show up on a new job, you can't always depend on them having the best TIG cups or hardware for you to use.

Ray was smart and brought his own Gas Lens TIG kit with him on his first day on the job and it helped him make a lasting impression.

Don't be afraid to invest in yourself.
