YESWELDER TIG Welding Torch WP-20F Flexible Head Water-Cooled 250Amp Welding Torch 25ft Cable

I have gone through 2 wp17 series torchs so far, they always end up cracking and leaking mad argon from me constantly pushing the rates 150 amp output right to and past that level. The welder has no issues running at 200 amps on 220v at nearly 100% duty cycle so of course something has to give, it's the air cooled 17 torch every time. Wanted to go with a roto flex setup but really wanted the 25' hose length so I can ground to a table and easily walk all around it. Next is to get a longer ground but for now that's on the wish list. Just having the torch hose length is amazing and let me tell you even running the ghetto rigged with a 5 gallon bucket and a 100psi surflo diaphragm pump (there is a small air leak on the intake side so it prevents it from ever hitting full pressure or in sure I would blow the lines off or just pop holes in them but with the slightly undersized threads for the adapter on the intake side it allows a tiny bit of air to enter and keeps anything from over pressurizing on me. The torch stays cool to the touch even after running at 170 amps welding aluminum for a good 15 min straight. The cup on the other hand is stupid hot but the torch body and even the head is cool enough to touch. I need to add a radiator to help cool off the water or maybe a emersive cooler to cool it off, make sure you add some sort of coolant to prevent corrosion and or any sort of anodic erosion due to not all metals being the exact same, I have brass and stainless steel metal in the loop and in sure a radiator will add copper which will definitely encourage erosion short of a zinc sacrificial rod in the tank. Anyhow a lil water wetter or some of that orange anti freeze has anti corrosive properties for aluminum which is the one you gotta watch the most. So far so good, I had the pump otherwise that would have been about 120 but the bucket was free and the 6mm quick connect fittings were under 20 for the full set and don't leak even a lil bit, need to get longer intake and outlet hoses but for now it works and I can't believe it took me this long to go water cooled. My mistake should have done it years ago so should you and for the price you can't go wrong. Just use your arc stinger to attach the power and use some quick connect fittings to hook up to the argon outlet and even the in and out water lines. Done deal, I wrapped my adapter in electrical tape to keep it from accidentally shorting or zapping me.

Buena relación precio/calidad aunque podrían mejorar la conexión de las mangueras a la antorcha. En mi Precisiontig cambia el color en las mangueras pero no afecta a su funcionamiento.

I bought an older Lincoln TIG machine from an unknown source. The water cooling function on the machine had a problem, that I did not recognize at first. Which means… I burned up the torch on the first use. Extremely disappointing and frustrating. I bought this torch as a replacement for it. I have been very satisfied. It was well-made and fit perfectly on my Lincoln TIG welder. It works great and I hope to get a lot of use out of it. Some of the other torches were extremely expensive and perhaps they’re worth it I don’t know. What I do know is this one is perfectly fine for my use. And cost a lot less money.

Torch worked fine for the first 5mins until it sprung a leak in the black power cable. Poor manufacturing. The crimp from the red hose punctured black hose. But the crimp fromblue hose would have also punctured the black hose eventually. All they had to do was crimp away from other hoses. Seems like a simple common sense solution, dont put sharp objects next to hoses.

just what I needed

Like a weldcraft wp-20, a top notch industrial quality legend, this clone came nicely packed, all the connections were quality, hooked up to the syncrowave just as the weldcraft torch, and perfecto...it just works perfectly. No leaks no issues. The flex head is something I never had before, and it's really neat, so easy to position.

I finally decided to switch my AHP 201xd to water cooled and this torch along with a Dense connector from Weldcity made it happen. No modifications required. Plug and play. I did like how they included the cable lug so if you want to do the conversion with the YouTube method then you can.

while it worked it worked very well, it was cheap and already had a cover for it so that was nice but it may be more suitable for a home setting because using it 8 hour a day 7 days a week seemed to be too much, it started leaking 3 weeks after hooking it up
