The 14K11 O-Ring is a small but critical component in your TIG welding setup. Designed to fit the back caps of the most common TIG torch series—including WP-9, WP-17, WP-18, WP-20, and WP-26—this O-ring creates the primary seal that prevents atmospheric air from being drawn into your shielding gas stream. A compromised O-ring can lead to frustrating gas turbulence, poor coverage, and ultimately, weld porosity.
Over time, the heat and mechanical stress of tightening and loosening back caps can cause O-rings to dry out, crack, or flatten. This 5-pack ensures you always have a fresh replacement on hand, minimizing downtime in your shop. Whether you are using a long back cap for bench work or a button cap for tight spaces, the 14K11 is the standard seal required to keep your system gas-tight.
Even a microscopic leak at the back of the torch can introduce oxygen into the argon stream via the Venturi effect. Regular inspection and replacement of these seals is a best practice for any serious fabricator. These O-rings are manufactured to precise tolerances (.100" ID x .070" width) to ensure a snug, reliable fit every time.
