105Z22 - ESAB 105Z22 #10 Alumina Cup for HW-17/18/26 TIG Torches

ESAB 105Z22 Alumina Nozzle #10 for TIG Welding

The ESAB 105Z22 Alumina Nozzle #10 is a premium-quality ceramic cup designed to withstand the intense heat and thermal cycling of professional TIG welding operations. Manufactured to precise tolerances, this nozzle features a 5/8-inch (16mm) bore diameter, providing a broad umbrella of shielding gas coverage. This is particularly beneficial when welding reactive metals like aluminum, titanium, or stainless steel, where atmospheric contamination must be strictly prevented. The #10 size is a go-to choice for welders needing slightly more coverage than standard #6 or #8 cups without moving to a gas lens setup.

Constructed from high-grade alumina ceramic, the 105Z22 offers superior durability compared to standard pink ceramic cups. It resists cracking and chipping even under high-amperage conditions common with water-cooled torches like the HW-18. Its threaded design ensures a tight, leak-free seal against the torch insulator, directing argon flow precisely over the weld pool. This nozzle is fully compatible with the industry-standard 17, 18, and 26 series TIG torches (including Heliarc models), making it a versatile addition to any welder's consumable kit.

Whether you are fabricating pressure vessels, repairing automotive components, or performing general maintenance, reliable shielding is key to a defect-free weld. The ESAB 105Z22 ensures consistent gas flow and arc stability. Its robust wall thickness helps insulate the collet body and torch head from reflected heat, prolonging the life of your torch components. Trust genuine ESAB parts to maintain the performance and safety of your welding equipment.

Key Benefits
