SGT18FX12APC4 - 18 Series Flex Head Water-Cooled TIG Torch, 12.5ft, 350A

High-Performance Water-Cooled TIG Welding Torch

The Parker SGT18FX is a premium water-cooled TIG torch designed for professional industrial applications requiring sustained high-amperage welding. Engineered for durability and performance, this torch belongs to the industry-standard 18 Series, making it compatible with a vast array of widely available consumables and parts. The water-cooling system efficiently dissipates heat, allowing for a 100% duty cycle at 350 Amps DC, ensuring that the torch remains cool to the touch even during prolonged welding sessions on thick materials.

One of the standout features of this model is the flexible neck (Flex Head). Unlike rigid torch bodies, the 18FX allows the operator to bend the torch head to various angles, providing superior access to restricted areas, pipe joints, and complex fabrications. This flexibility does not compromise the current transfer, thanks to high-quality internal copper components. The 12.5-foot cable assembly offers a standard reach suitable for most bench and shop environments, minimizing cable clutter while providing adequate mobility.

Operator comfort is prioritized with an ergonomic handle design. The 'Suregrip' style handle features soft-grip areas and a knuckle joint that improves maneuverability and reduces wrist strain. This is critical for precision TIG welding where stability and control are paramount. Whether you are welding aluminum, stainless steel, or mild steel, this torch delivers the consistency and reliability required for code-quality welds.
