OVERVIEW

Technical Overview

The SSC Controls 10-4013 is a specialized Rotary TIG Hand Control designed to interface directly with Thermal Arc welding power sources utilizing an 8-pin remote receptacle. This device provides dual functionality, serving as both a contactor switch for arc initiation and a potentiometer for remote amperage regulation. The unit is engineered with a high-quality rotary track mechanism that translates linear finger movement into precise resistance changes, allowing the operator to fine-tune welding current dynamically during the weld cycle.

The assembly features a robust 25-foot cable assembly, shielded to prevent high-frequency interference (HFI) common in TIG welding environments, ensuring stable control signals. The connector is an industrial-grade 8-pin plug wired specifically for Thermal Arc pinouts. The control module itself is housed in a durable, impact-resistant casing designed to clamp securely onto standard TIG torch handles. The mounting system utilizes adjustable velcro straps, accommodating handle diameters ranging from 1-1/8 inches to 1-3/8 inches, making it compatible with most standard air-cooled (17, 26 series) and water-cooled (18, 20 series) torch bodies within that size range.

Technically, this device replaces the standard foot pedal, offering a solution for applications where a foot control is impractical. The internal components are sealed against dust and metallic particulate ingress, a critical feature for longevity in grinding and fabrication shops. The tactile feedback of the rotary wheel is calibrated to prevent accidental adjustments while remaining responsive enough for rapid heat changes required during pulse welding or crater filling sequences.

FAQ

This control is designed for Thermal Arc TIG welders that use an 8-pin remote receptacle.

It mounts to the torch handle using the included velcro straps. It fits handles with a diameter between 1-1/8 inches and 1-3/8 inches.

Yes, it replaces the foot pedal entirely, providing both on/off contactor control and amperage adjustment at the torch.

Yes, the 25-foot cable is shielded to protect against high-frequency interference.

Yes, as long as the handle diameter falls within the 1-1/8" to 1-3/8" range, which covers most standard water-cooled torches.

The rotary wheel adjusts current, and the unit typically includes a microswitch mechanism or separate action for the contactor to start/stop the arc.

It uses a standard 8-pin Amphenol style connector wired for Thermal Arc logic.

Yes, the rotary track is designed with texture and resistance suitable for operation while wearing TIG welding gloves.
