KP2016-1B1 - Lincoln Electric #10 Alumina Gas Lens Cup (5/8 Inch)

Premium Alumina Gas Lens Nozzle for Precision TIG Welding

The Lincoln Electric KP2016-1B1 Alumina Nozzle No. 10 is a critical consumable for professional TIG welders seeking superior performance and reliability. Manufactured by Lincoln Electric, a global leader in welding technology, this nozzle is designed to withstand the intense heat and thermal cycling inherent in Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW). Made from high-purity alumina ceramic, it offers excellent electrical insulation and resistance to thermal shock, ensuring a longer service life compared to standard ceramic cups.

This specific nozzle features a 5/8-inch (16 mm) bore, classified as a No. 10 size. It is engineered for use with gas lens collet bodies, which are essential for creating a laminar flow of shielding gas. Laminar flow significantly reduces turbulence at the nozzle exit, providing a more stable and effective shield around the molten weld pool. This is particularly important when welding reactive metals or when extending the tungsten electrode further out for visibility in tight corners.

The KP2016-1B1 is compatible with a wide range of air-cooled and water-cooled torches, including the popular PTA-9, PTA-20, and PTW-20 series, as well as Magnum TIG torches. Its precise threading ensures a secure fit, preventing gas leaks that could compromise weld quality. Whether you are fabricating aerospace components, pressure vessels, or high-purity piping, this Lincoln Electric nozzle delivers the consistency required for X-ray quality welds.

Investing in genuine Lincoln Electric consumables ensures that your equipment operates at peak efficiency. The robust construction of the KP2016-1B1 minimizes downtime caused by cracked or failed nozzles, allowing operators to maintain focus on their craftsmanship. Choose Josef Gas for your authentic Lincoln Electric parts and experience the difference in quality and performance.
