04K60 - ESAB Heliarc CW-275 / CW-200 Replacement 90-Degree Torch Head

Genuine ESAB Replacement Head for Heliarc Torches

The ESAB 04K60 is a premium replacement 90-degree head assembly engineered specifically for the legendary Heliarc CW-275 and CW-200 series TIG torches. As a critical component of the welding torch, the head assembly is responsible for conducting welding current to the tungsten electrode, directing shielding gas coverage, and managing the flow of coolant to prevent overheating. Over time, thermal cycling and mechanical wear can degrade the threads, compromise the coolant seals, or damage the conductive surfaces of the torch head. This genuine OEM part allows facilities to repair rather than replace expensive torch assemblies, extending the service life of their welding equipment assets.

Manufactured to ESAB's exacting standards, this head assembly features high-grade copper and brass construction to maximize electrical conductivity and thermal transfer. The 90-degree angle is the industry standard configuration, offering optimal ergonomics for the majority of bench and pipe welding applications. The internal water chambers are precision-designed to maintain consistent flow rates, which is vital for the CW-275 and CW-200 models that operate at higher amperages. Using non-OEM replacements in water-cooled systems can lead to flow restrictions or leaks that may damage the power cable or power source; the 04K60 ensures a perfect, leak-free interface with existing handle and cable components.

For industrial procurement and maintenance teams, stocking critical spares like the 04K60 minimizes downtime. When a torch head fails due to thread stripping or accidental impact, having the correct replacement part on hand ensures that welding operations can resume quickly. This component is fully compatible with standard Heliarc consumables, including collets, collet bodies, and gas cups, ensuring that no additional inventory changes are required when swapping out the head.
