The Lincoln Electric KP2016-4B1 is a premium Alumina Nozzle designed to meet the rigorous demands of professional TIG welding. Identified by the industry-standard part number 10N48, this #6 size cup features a 3/8-inch (9.5mm) orifice, making it an excellent choice for general-purpose welding on steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. As a genuine Lincoln Electric component, it is engineered specifically to maintain the performance standards of the Lincoln LA-17 TIG torch, ensuring a secure fit and optimal electrical isolation.
Constructed from high-quality alumina ceramic, this nozzle offers superior resistance to thermal shock compared to lower-grade alternatives. In TIG welding, the nozzle's primary function is to direct the shielding gas (typically Argon) over the weld pool to prevent atmospheric contamination. The surface finish and internal geometry of this Lincoln nozzle are designed to promote laminar flow, reducing turbulence that can lead to porosity in the weld. The #6 size strikes a balance between gas coverage and accessibility, allowing the welder to reach into tighter joints while still maintaining an adequate shield for the tungsten electrode.
While optimized for the Lincoln LA-17, the 10N48 design is a universal standard, making this nozzle compatible with a wide range of air-cooled and water-cooled torches, including the 17, 18, and 26 series. This versatility makes it a staple consumable for any fabrication shop. Whether you are performing intricate aerospace work or structural repairs, relying on OEM consumables like the KP2016-4B1 ensures consistent results and prolongs the life of your torch front-end parts.
