The Fronius Clamping Piece D=9x33 (Part No. 48.0005.0168) is a critical component designed for specific Fronius TIG welding torches. Often referred to as a collet chuck or "Spannstück" in German engineering documentation, this part plays a vital role in the internal assembly of the torch head. It is engineered to securely hold the tungsten electrode in place, ensuring that the arc remains stable and centered during precision welding operations.
Manufactured to Fronius's exacting standards, this clamping piece features a diameter of 9mm and a length of 33mm. It is constructed from high-grade conductive alloy materials that facilitate efficient current transfer from the power source to the tungsten. Using genuine OEM parts like this clamping piece is essential for maintaining the performance and longevity of your Fronius welding equipment. Generic substitutes may not offer the same dimensional precision, leading to poor electrical contact, overheating, or inconsistent arc starts.
This component is typically located within the torch head assembly and works in conjunction with the collet and back cap to apply the necessary pressure on the electrode. Regular inspection of the clamping piece is recommended, as threads and contact surfaces can wear over time due to thermal cycling and mechanical stress. Replacing a worn clamping piece with the 48.0005.0168 ensures your torch operates at peak efficiency.
