OVERVIEW

Upgrade Your TIG Setup with the Lincoln K1622-4

Take the hassle out of connecting your water-cooled TIG torch with the Lincoln Electric K1622-4 Twist Mate Adapter. If you are running a PTW-18 or PTW-20 torch, you know that managing water lines, gas hoses, and power cables can be a complex task. This adapter simplifies your workflow by providing a single, reliable connection point to your welder. Designed for Lincoln machines with 35mm DINSE receptacles, it allows you to plug in and start welding with confidence, knowing your equipment is set up correctly.

Quick and Secure Connections

The "Twist Mate" design is all about efficiency. With a simple twist, you get a solid electrical connection that won't wiggle loose while you work. This is crucial for TIG welding, where stability and precision are everything. The K1622-4 handles the heavy lifting of routing your power, gas, and water lines, ensuring that your torch gets the cooling it needs to run at high amperages without overheating. It is the perfect solution for welders moving from air-cooled to water-cooled setups or for those needing to replace a damaged adapter on their existing rig.

Built for the PTW Series

This adapter is custom-made for the popular PTW-18 and PTW-20 series torches. These torches are workhorses in the industry, used for everything from automotive fabrication to aerospace work. To get the most out of them, you need an adapter that doesn't restrict flow or drop voltage. The K1622-4 maintains full flow for your shielding gas and coolant, helping you produce clean, high-quality welds every time. The 3-piece cable compatibility means it fits standard water-cooled cable configurations, making installation straightforward and frustration-free.

Genuine Lincoln Quality

When it comes to welding gear, sticking with genuine parts pays off. The Lincoln K1622-4 is manufactured to strict tolerances, ensuring a tight fit that prevents leaks—a common headache with generic adapters. Water leaks can ruin a weld and damage your machine, so investing in the correct adapter is a smart move for any serious fabricator. Keep your shop running smoothly and your arc stable with this durable, high-performance TIG adapter.
