The Weldcraft 269766 Water Hose is a critical component designed specifically for the W-280 and WP-280 series of water-cooled TIG torches. In high-amperage welding applications, maintaining consistent coolant flow is essential to prevent torch overheating and ensure the longevity of your consumables. This genuine Weldcraft replacement hose provides the reliability professional welders demand, ensuring that your cooling system operates at peak efficiency during extended arc-on times.
Unlike standard vinyl hoses that can become stiff or brittle over time, this 12.5-foot hose is constructed from high-quality braided rubber. This material choice offers superior resistance to heat, sparks, and abrasion commonly found in industrial welding environments. The braided reinforcement adds structural integrity, preventing kinks and ensuring a steady flow of coolant to the torch head, while remaining flexible enough to allow for comfortable torch manipulation.
Proper setup of water-cooled TIG systems is vital for safety and performance. The Weldcraft 269766 is color-coded blue, following the industry standard for water/coolant inlet lines. This visual cue helps prevent cross-connection errors during setup, distinguishing it from the power cable (red) and gas hose (black). Designed as a direct replacement for the W-280 Super-Cool™ and WP-280 models, it features precise fittings that ensure a leak-free connection, allowing you to get back to welding with confidence.
When replacing components on high-performance equipment like the W-280, using genuine OEM parts is crucial. This hose is manufactured to Miller Electric's exacting standards, ensuring it meets the pressure and flow requirements of your cooling system. Whether you are replacing a damaged line or performing preventative maintenance, the 269766 hose restores your torch to factory specifications.
