KP52062-2 - Lincoln Electric C Series Clear TIG Nozzle

Product Overview

The Lincoln Electric KP52062-2 is a specialized C Series Glass Cup designed to enhance the TIG welding process through improved visibility and gas coverage. As a genuine Lincoln Electric component, this glass cup is engineered to meet the rigorous standards required for precision fabrication and industrial welding. Unlike standard ceramic alumina cups, which obstruct the welder's view of the electrode and the immediate weld zone, this glass nozzle provides a transparent barrier. This transparency is crucial for applications requiring exacting standards, such as aerospace, motorsports, and food-grade stainless steel fabrication.

Manufactured from high-quality, heat-resistant glass, the KP52062-2 is built to withstand the thermal cycles associated with TIG welding. It is specifically compatible with Lincoln Electric's C Series torch configurations, ensuring a secure fit and optimal seal. The use of a glass cup is often paired with a gas lens system (sold separately or part of the torch setup) to create a laminar flow of shielding gas. This laminar flow not only protects the molten puddle from atmospheric contamination but also allows for a longer tungsten stick-out, enabling the welder to reach into deep corners or tight angles without sacrificing gas shielding.

For procurement specialists and shop managers, stocking the KP52062-2 ensures that your welding team has the necessary tools for high-precision work. It is an essential consumable for shops that handle exotic alloys like titanium or Inconel, where gas coverage and puddle control are paramount. The cup is designed for easy installation and replacement, minimizing downtime during consumable changes.

Technical Specifications

This unit is identified by the internal SKU KP52062-2. It falls under the category of TIG consumables and is distinct for its material composition. While standard cups are opaque, the glass construction here serves a functional purpose beyond aesthetics. It is rated for the amperage ranges typically associated with the C Series torch line. Users should ensure they have the appropriate O-rings and gas lens collet bodies to accommodate the glass cup installation, as these setups often differ from standard collet body assemblies.
