10N29 - Weldcraft 10N29 TIG Collet Body .020-inch for 17/18/26 Series Torches (5-Pack)

Precision TIG Components for Industrial Applications

The Weldcraft 10N29 Collet Body is a critical component for professionals utilizing 17, 18, and 26 series TIG torches. Designed to accommodate .020-inch (0.5mm) tungsten electrodes, this collet body is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of industrial welding environments. Manufactured by Miller Weldcraft, a leader in TIG welding solutions, these components ensure optimal electrical conductivity and thermal management within the torch head.

In precision welding applications where .020" tungsten is required, the stability of the arc is paramount. The 10N29 collet body provides a secure seat for the collet, ensuring that the tungsten electrode is held firmly in place without slippage or misalignment. This stability is essential for maintaining consistent arc length and control, particularly when working on thin-gauge materials or intricate assemblies often found in aerospace, electronics, and medical device manufacturing.

Constructed from high-grade copper alloy, the 10N29 offers superior heat dissipation properties. Efficient heat transfer helps prevent overheating of the torch head and extends the lifespan of both the collet and the collet body itself. By using genuine OEM parts, operators reduce the risk of thread galling and poor fitment that can occur with aftermarket alternatives. This 5-pack configuration ensures that your maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) inventory remains stocked, minimizing downtime associated with consumable replacement.

Compatibility is a key feature of the 10N29. It fits the industry-standard "3 Series" consumable group, making it interchangeable across a wide range of air-cooled and water-cooled torches, including the WP-17, WP-18, and WP-26 models. This universality simplifies inventory management for shops running multiple torch setups.
