K2267-1 - Lincoln Electric TIG-Mate 20 Water-Cooled Torch Kit K2267-1

Comprehensive Water-Cooled TIG Solution

The Lincoln Electric TIG-Mate™ 20 Water-Cooled TIG Torch Starter Pack (K2267-1) is an engineered solution designed to provide professional welders with a complete, ready-to-use setup for high-performance TIG welding. At the core of this package is the PTW-20 Pro-Torch™ TIG torch, a water-cooled unit rated for 250 amps at a 100% duty cycle. This high duty cycle capability makes the kit particularly suitable for industrial fabrication environments where continuous welding on medium-to-thick sections of steel, stainless steel, or aluminum is required. The water-cooling system efficiently dissipates heat, prolonging consumable life and maintaining operator comfort during extended arc-on times.

Technical Components and Compatibility

The kit is meticulously curated to ensure component compatibility and ease of integration with Lincoln Electric power sources. It includes a Twist-Mate™ adapter, which facilitates a secure and rapid connection to the power source output studs. Gas management is handled by the included Harris® flowmeter/regulator, a premium component known for its accuracy and durability in industrial gas regulation. The package also supplies all necessary hoses, including a 10-foot gas hose and a 10-foot water hose with a coupler, ensuring that the cooling loop and shielding gas delivery systems are robust and leak-free. A work clamp and cable are also provided to complete the electrical circuit.

Ergonomics and Design

The PTW-20 torch features a rigid head design and a comfortable knurled handle. This texturing ensures a non-slip grip, allowing for precise torch manipulation even when wearing heavy welding gloves. Additionally, the handle incorporates a molded lip designed to interface with zippered cable covers, securing the cover to the torch and preventing it from sliding down the leads. The 12.5-foot lead length offers a balance between reach and manageability, suitable for bench work and localized fabrication cells. All components are housed in a durable, portable carrying case, simplifying storage and transport for field applications or mobile welding rigs.
