10N25 - Weldcraft 10N25 Collet, 1/8" (3.2mm) for 17/18/26 Torches

Precision TIG Consumable for 17, 18, and 26 Series Torches

The Weldcraft 10N25 Collet is a critical component designed to secure 1/8-inch (3.2mm) tungsten electrodes within standard TIG torch assemblies. Engineered to precise tolerances, this collet ensures optimal electrical conductivity and thermal transfer, which are essential for maintaining a stable welding arc. It is manufactured from a high-grade copper alloy that resists deformation under the high-heat conditions typical of Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW).

This component is universally compatible with the industry-standard 17, 18, and 26 series TIG torches, including air-cooled and water-cooled models such as the WP-17, WP-18, and WP-26. The 10N25 functions by compressing against the tungsten electrode when the back cap is tightened, creating the necessary electrical contact point to transfer welding current from the torch body to the electrode. Its split-jaw design allows for firm gripping power without damaging the tungsten surface.

Using genuine Weldcraft consumables like the 10N25 reduces the likelihood of process variables such as poor arc starts or unstable current flow caused by inferior fitment. Whether utilized in a standard collet body setup or a gas lens configuration (where applicable for this series), this collet provides the reliability required for industrial welding applications.
