OVERVIEW

High-Performance Replacement Power Cable for WP-20 Torches

The GEN45V03R is a premium aftermarket power cable designed to replace the standard 45V03 cable on WP-20 series TIG welding torches. Engineered for industrial durability, this cable serves as the primary conductor for welding current while simultaneously carrying the return water flow from the torch head to the cooler. This dual-function design is critical for the compact and efficient operation of water-cooled TIG systems.

Unlike standard vinyl cables, this 'R' model is manufactured with a high-grade rubber jacket. Rubber offers superior flexibility, which is essential for precise TIG welding manipulation. It allows the welder to maneuver the torch with less resistance, reducing fatigue over extended periods. Furthermore, the rubber material provides enhanced resistance to heat, sparks, and abrasion commonly found in harsh workshop environments.

This cable measures 12.5 feet in length, adhering to industry standards for bench and booth welding setups. It features standard threaded fittings that ensure a secure, leak-free connection to both the torch body and the power block adapter. It is rated to handle the amperage capacity typical of 20-series torches (approximately 250 amps) when properly water-cooled.

FAQ

The 'R' stands for Rubber. The 45V03R is made of flexible rubber, whereas the standard 45V03 is typically made of vinyl. Rubber cables are more flexible and resistant to heat.

No, the WP-17 is an air-cooled torch and uses a different style of power cable (usually a one-piece cable). The 45V03R is specifically for water-cooled WP-20 series torches.

Yes, in a 3-hose water-cooled TIG setup, the power cable carries the welding current to the torch and returns the warm water from the torch back to the cooler.

This cable is 12.5 feet long.

Yes, you typically need a power block or DINSE adapter (like a 45V11) to connect the lug end of this cable to your welding machine, depending on your power source's output terminals.

This is a high-quality generic aftermarket replacement part designed to meet or exceed OEM specifications.

No, while the WP-18 is water-cooled, it is a larger, higher-amperage torch that typically uses different cables (like the 40V64). Always check your torch manual for the correct part number.

Signs of a bad cable include coolant leaks, the cable becoming extremely hot during welding (indicating broken internal strands), or visible cracks and stiffness in the outer jacket.
