BWSVTSW1 - Universal TIG Torch Trigger Switch - Momentary Contact

Reliable Arc Control with the Best Welds VTSW1

The Best Welds VTSW1 Universal TIG Torch Switch is an essential accessory for TIG welders seeking a dependable method for remote arc initiation. Designed to replace faulty or worn-out switches, this unit features a robust momentary contact mechanism that ensures immediate response when pressed. Whether you are fabricating in a shop or performing maintenance in the field, having a reliable trigger on your torch is critical for maintaining weld quality and safety.

This switch is engineered for universality, fitting comfortably onto the handles of most standard TIG torches, including air-cooled and water-cooled models (such as WP-17, WP-26, WP-20, and WP-18 series). The low-profile design ensures it does not interfere with your grip, allowing for precise torch manipulation. Installation is straightforward, typically utilizing secure straps or Velcro to hold the switch firmly in place, preventing rotation or slippage during welding operations.

Wiring the VTSW1 is simple thanks to its standard 2-wire configuration. It can be soldered or crimped into existing 14-pin, 6-pin, or 5-pin amphenol plugs used by major welding machine manufacturers like Miller, Lincoln, and ESAB. This flexibility makes it a versatile spare part for any welding workshop. By providing consistent contactor control, the VTSW1 helps welders achieve clean starts and stops, reducing the likelihood of tungsten contamination or weld defects.
