The 45V08 Water Hose is an essential replacement component designed for water-cooled TIG welding torches. Measuring 25 feet in length, this hose provides the necessary reach to maneuver around large workpieces or fixtures without compromising the flow of coolant to your torch head. Proper cooling is critical in high-amperage TIG welding to protect both the equipment and the welder from excessive heat buildup. This hose is engineered to transport coolant efficiently from the water cooler to the torch, ensuring your equipment operates within its safe thermal limits during extended welding cycles.
This generic replacement part is manufactured to meet industry standards, making it fully compatible with the most common water-cooled torch series used in fabrication shops today. It is designed to fit WP-18, WP-20, and WP-24W style torches. Whether you are using a setup from a major brand or a custom assembly, the 45V08 utilizes standard fittings—typically a 5/8"-18 Left-Hand thread—to connect seamlessly to standard water adapters and coolant recirculators. This universality makes it a versatile spare part to keep in your maintenance inventory.
Constructed from high-quality rubber or vinyl materials, the hose is built to withstand the rigors of an industrial environment. It offers excellent resistance to kinking, abrasion, and exposure to common shop fluids like oil and cutting coolants. A leaking water hose can lead to messy shop floors, potential electrical hazards, and catastrophic torch failure due to overheating. Replacing an old, brittle, or cracked hose with this fresh 45V08 unit restores the integrity of your cooling system, giving you peace of mind and allowing you to focus on laying down the perfect bead.
Routine maintenance of your TIG torch assembly is key to longevity. Water hoses are wear items that eventually degrade over time due to heat cycling and physical wear. Choosing this high-quality generic replacement offers significant cost savings over OEM branded equivalents without sacrificing performance. It installs easily, getting you back up and running quickly with minimal downtime.
