Description
Detailed Technical Specifications & Sizing
Matching the collet size precisely to your tungsten diameter is essential to prevent electrode slipping, arcing within the torch, or gas leaks.
| Specification | Technical Detail |
| Material | Industrial Grade Tellurium Copper or High-Quality Copper Alloy |
| Compatible Torches | WP-17, WP-18, WP-26, and variants (17F, 17V, 26FV, etc.) |
| Available Diameters | $1.6\text{ mm}$ ($1/16″$), $2.4\text{ mm}$ ($3/32″$), and $3.2\text{ mm}$ ($1/8″$) |
| Component Length | Standard length compatible with long, medium, and short back caps |
| Standard Pack | Bulk quantity sets (typically 10 units) for heavy-use environments |
| Connection Type | Friction-fit into the collet body for secure electrode locking |
Technical Usage Details:
-
Component Assembly: Must be used in conjunction with a matching size collet body and alumina ceramic cup to ensure proper gas shielding and current flow.
-
Electrode Stability: The precision-ground internal diameter prevents the tungsten from vibrating or drifting during sensitive TIG operations.
-
Maintenance: Replace collets immediately if they become twisted, blocked, or lose their clamping tension due to excessive heat.
-
Application: Suitable for both AC and DC welding processes across a wide range of materials, including aluminum, stainless steel, and carbon steel.
