Price range: R1 061,45 through R1 719,25 Incl. vat

Technical Specifications (Typical / Example)

Here’s a comparison layout for the 4 m and 8 m models:

Spec 4 Meter Version 8 Meter Version
Cooling type Air‑cooled Air‑cooled
Cable configuration 2‑piece (separate gas & power) 2‑piece
Switch / trigger Handle‑mounted Handle‑mounted
Welding current (DC) ~150 A ~150 A*
Welding current (AC) ~120‑140 A ~120‑140 A*
Electrode size 0.5‑2.4 mm 0.5‑2.4 mm
Duty cycle ~35% ~35%
Reach / flexibility Good reach in small/medium benches Greater range for large benches, mobile work

*Actual performance may vary slightly in the 8 m model due to voltage drop over longer cable; always check with the supplier’s catalogue for that specific torch.


Applications & Use Cases

  • General TIG welding (mild steel, stainless steel, etc.) where control via switch at the handle is preferred.

  • Workshops / mobile welders where you want to start arc and control gas directly from the torch.

  • Situations where foot control is impractical or not available.

  • Jobs where you need extended reach (8 m) without having to move the machine around constantly.

  • Replacing older torches; the WP‑17 series has many interchangeable consumables (collets, nozzles) in many brands.


What’s Included & Consumables

  • Torch head with integrated switch/trigger and handle

  • Power cable + gas hose (two‑piece assembly) in desired length (4m or 8m)

  • Standard consumables: typical starter collet(s), collet body, ceramic nozzle(s) (check with supplier if included)

  • Connectors: The type of rear power connector (Dinse / M‑male / others) should be compatible with your welding machine.


Maintenance & Compatibility Tips

  • Use the right electrode size for the amp level to prevent overheating or arc instability.

  • Check that your machine’s power output and connectors can support the 8 m version without excessive voltage drop.

  • Keep the switch / trigger clean and dry; switching components often fail because of spatter or moisture.

  • Always use appropriate shielding gas (Argon in most TIG) and ensure gas supply lines are secure and leak‑free.

Description

WP‑17 TIG Torches with Switch – 4M & 8M | 2‑Piece

Premium WP‑17 series TIG torches, air‑cooled, fitted with a built‑in trigger/switch, supplied in two cable lengths (4 m and 8 m). These torches are designed for welders who need control at the torch handle (trigger/switch) rather than only via foot pedal or machine‑solenoid. The 2‑piece configuration (separate gas & power lines) allows easier maintenance, replacement, and custom cable routing.


Key Features

Feature Description
Cooling Air‑cooled design—no water required, simpler setup and lighter weight.
Switch / Trigger Integrated trigger switch on the torch handle for initiating arc and/or controlling gas flow. Enables control without needing the machine’s foot pedal or external switch.
2‑Piece Hose / Cable Separate gas hose and power cable lines: offers flexibility in replacing damaged part without replacing whole torch; easier routing in workshop.
Length Options Two available lengths: 4 meters and 8 meters, giving reach options for different workspace sizes.
Duty & Current Ratings Generally in the range of ~150 A DC, ~120‑140 A AC (at ~35% duty cycle). Typical spec for many WP‑17 style torches.
Electrode Size Range Usually supports Tungsten electrodes from about 0.5 mm up to 2.4 mm diameter.
Duty Cycle ~35% typical in many models. For more heavy usage, ensure your welding machine is rated appropriately.
