OVERVIEW

Reliable 13N27 Collet Body for TIG Welding

The Generic 13N27 Collet Body is an essential consumable for TIG welders using 9, 20, or 25 series torches. Designed to hold 1/16-inch (1.6mm) tungsten electrodes securely, this component plays a critical role in the electrical transfer and gas distribution of your welding setup. Whether you are operating a small air-cooled WP-9 torch for delicate work or a heavy-duty water-cooled WP-20 for higher amperage applications, this collet body provides the fit and performance you need to maintain a stable arc.

Constructed from high-quality copper, this collet body is engineered to withstand the intense heat cycles associated with TIG welding. It acts as the interface between the collet and the torch head, ensuring that the current is effectively transferred to the tungsten electrode. At the same time, it helps direct the shielding gas flow towards the weld pool, protecting it from atmospheric contamination. Because it is a generic replacement for the standard Weldcraft 13N27 part, it offers significant cost savings for workshops and hobbyists without compromising on functionality.

Regular inspection and replacement of collet bodies are necessary to ensure optimal weld quality. Over time, threads can wear, and heat stress can deform the component, leading to poor conductivity or gas turbulence. Keeping a stock of these affordable 13N27 collet bodies ensures you are always ready to swap out worn parts and keep your production line moving. This part is compatible with a wide range of torch models, including the A-125, W-200, W-250, and other 2-series style torches.

Key Benefits

  • Universal Fit: Matches industry-standard specifications for 9 and 20 series torches.
  • Cost-Effective: Provides professional performance at a fraction of the cost of branded OEM parts.
  • Durable Material: Made from conductive copper alloy for longevity and heat resistance.

FAQ

The 13N27 is compatible with 9, 20, and 25 series TIG torches. This includes models often labeled as WP-9, WP-20, WP-25, A-125, W-200, and W-250.

This collet body is designed specifically for 1/16 inch (1.6mm) diameter tungsten electrodes.

No, the 13N27 is a standard collet body. If you require a gas lens for better gas coverage, you would need a different part number (typically 45V43 for 1/16" in this series).

Yes, you must use a matching 1/16" (1.6mm) collet, such as the 13N22, to ensure the tungsten is gripped correctly.

Replace the collet body if the threads become stripped, if it shows signs of severe heat discoloration and deformation, or if the gas outlet holes become clogged with spatter.

No, this is a high-quality generic replacement part that meets the specifications of the Weldcraft 13N27 for full compatibility.

It is made of high-conductivity copper, which is standard for TIG torch collet bodies to manage heat and electricity efficiently.
