CK26-12-RSF RG - CK26 200A Air Cooled TIG Torch, 12.5ft Super-Flex, Rigid Head

Technical Overview of the CK26 Air Cooled TIG Torch

The CK Worldwide CK26-12-RSF RG is a premium air-cooled TIG torch designed for industrial welding applications requiring up to 200 Amps of output. This model belongs to the CK26 series and is engineered to accept standard 3 Series consumables, making it compatible with widely available parts for 17, 18, 26, and similar torch models. The torch assembly features a rigid head configuration without a gas control valve, suitable for power sources with built-in gas solenoids.

A key technical differentiator of this torch is its construction material. Unlike standard torches that utilize copper heads, the CK26 employs a brass head assembly. This material choice significantly increases durability by eliminating common issues such as thread seizing, stripping, or galling, which can occur during frequent consumable changes. The torch body is insulated with high-grade silicon rubber, offering superior resistance to cracking and ensuring protection against high-frequency leakage.

The power cable supplied with this kit is a 12.5-foot, 1-piece Super-Flex cable. This cable integrates the power conductor and gas hose into a single line, encased in a highly flexible silicone jacket. The connection fittings are designed as Fail-Safe, ensuring a secure seal without the need for auxiliary wire ties. With a rated output of 200 Amps for both ACHF (Alternating Current High Frequency) and DCSP (Direct Current Straight Polarity), this torch provides reliable performance for medium-to-heavy fabrication tasks.
