OVERVIEW

Precision TIG Welding in Confined Spaces

The Micro Torch Head 90° (TTV-216) is an essential component for specialized TIG welding applications requiring access to extremely restricted areas. Designed for use with modular micro torch systems, this interchangeable head assembly features a fixed 90-degree angle, allowing the welder to position the tungsten electrode perpendicular to the torch handle. This configuration is critical when welding inside bores, tubing, or complex manifolds where a standard straight or flex-head torch cannot maintain the proper arc angle.

Constructed from high-grade conductive materials, the head ensures efficient current transfer and heat dissipation, which is vital for the longevity of micro-sized consumables. The compact profile of the head minimizes obstruction, providing the operator with a clear line of sight to the weld pool—a necessity for the high-precision work often found in aerospace, instrumentation, and automotive fabrication. The head is designed to thread easily onto compatible micro torch bodies, allowing for quick changeovers between different head angles (such as 45°, 90°, or 180°) depending on the immediate requirements of the job.

Reliability in industrial environments is paramount. This torch head features robust insulation to protect against high-frequency leakage and radiant heat, ensuring safe operation during extended welding cycles. Whether utilized in a maintenance repair operation (MRO) or a production line, the TTV-216 offers the consistency and performance professional welders demand.

Key Technical Benefits

  • Optimized Geometry: The 90-degree bend allows for welding in areas with limited vertical clearance.
  • Thermal Efficiency: Designed to manage heat effectively, preventing overheating of the collet and nozzle assembly.
  • Modular Versatility: Enables a single torch body to adapt to multiple welding positions without the need for multiple complete torch assemblies.

FAQ

This head is designed for modular micro TIG torch systems. It typically threads onto standard micro torch bodies (like the MR70 or MR140 style) that accept interchangeable heads.

The head itself is a conductive component. Cooling depends on the torch body it is attached to. If attached to a water-cooled body, the head benefits from that cooling capacity.

A 90-degree head allows the welder to access tight spaces where a straight or slightly angled torch cannot fit, such as inside pipes or between closely spaced tubes.

No, this is typically the head assembly only. Collets, collet bodies, and nozzles (cups) are usually sold separately or reused from your existing kit.

The amperage rating is generally determined by the torch body and the cooling method (air vs. water), but micro heads are typically rated for precision work, often between 70A and 140A.

Yes, but you will need the appropriate collet for your tungsten size. Micro torches often use smaller tungsten diameters like .040", 1/16", or sometimes 3/32".

No, this is a rigid 90-degree head. For different angles, you would swap to a 45-degree or 180-degree head.

It typically screws onto the neck of the micro torch body. Ensure the threads are clean and do not overtighten.
