The Furick Cup 3 Series Starter Kit (FU17-SK) is the definitive accessory package for welders utilizing 17, 18, or 26 series TIG torches. Designed to provide a complete solution for gas coverage and arc stability, this kit replaces standard torch consumables with high-performance components engineered for precision welding. Whether you are working with AC or DC processes, this kit equips your torch with the versatility needed to handle a wide range of materials and joint configurations.
At the heart of this kit is a selection of Furick's most renowned cups, including both ceramic and glass variations. The inclusion of glass nozzles, such as the Fupa #12 and BBW #19, offers welders unparalleled visibility of the weld pool, which is critical for intricate work and tight spaces. The kit also features standard ceramic cups for applications where durability and impact resistance are paramount. Ranging from a compact #5 nozzle to the extra-large #19, users have the flexibility to select the optimal cup size for their specific gas coverage requirements.
Beyond the cups, the FU17-SK kit upgrades the internal mechanics of the torch. It includes a set of gas lenses for 1/16", 3/32", and 1/8" tungsten electrodes. Gas lenses are essential for creating a laminar flow of shielding gas, reducing turbulence and minimizing the risk of atmospheric contamination. To complement the gas lenses, the kit provides wedge collets, which offer a more secure grip on the tungsten compared to standard split collets, reducing twisting and improving electrical contact.
This starter kit is designed as a "one-stop-shop" for 3-Series torches (17, 18, 26). It includes all necessary mounting hardware, such as stubby collet bodies, a torch insulator, and a full set of replacement O-rings. Installation tools and spare diffusers are also provided to ensure easy maintenance. Please note that for welders using CK Worldwide torches, an additional insulator (part #17ICK) is required for proper fitment.
