WP-9V-12-2 - Weldcraft A-125 Valve (WP-9V) 2-Piece TIG Torch Package, 12.5 ft

Weldcraft A-125 Valve TIG Torch Package (WP-9V-12-2)

The Weldcraft A-125 Valve TIG Torch Package, formerly known as the WP-9V Series, is a premium air-cooled solution designed for precision welding applications. Engineered for optimal control when working with thin-gauge materials, this torch package combines the legendary reliability of Weldcraft with the practical versatility required for diverse industrial environments. The A-125 Valve model is distinguished by its integrated gas control valve, a critical feature for welders utilizing power sources that do not possess a built-in gas solenoid. This manual valve allows the operator to easily open and close the shielding gas flow directly at the torch, facilitating seamless operation with basic Stick welding machines adapted for TIG processes.

This specific package (WP-9V-12-2) features a 2-piece cable configuration with a length of 12.5 feet (3.8 meters). The 2-piece design separates the power cable from the gas hose. The power cable is terminated with a lug for connection to the welder's output stud, while the braided rubber gas hose connects directly to the regulator or flowmeter. This setup is particularly advantageous for field applications and maintenance work where equipment flexibility is paramount. The cables are insulated with high-quality rubber, ensuring durability and resistance to abrasion in harsh shop environments.

Rated at 125 Amps DC and 100 Amps AC (at 60% duty cycle), the A-125 Valve torch is an excellent choice for general purpose welding on steel, stainless steel, and other alloys. The torch body is lightweight and compact, significantly reducing operator fatigue during long welding sessions. Its small form factor allows for superior maneuverability in tight corners and hard-to-reach joints, making it a favorite among pipe welders and fabricators requiring intricate bead placement. The package comes complete with the torch body, handle, power cable, gas hose, and a long back cap, providing the core components needed to upgrade or replace an existing setup.

By utilizing the standard 2-Series (13N) consumables, the A-125 ensures easy availability of replacement parts such as collets, collet bodies, and nozzles. Whether used for aerospace components, motorsports fabrication, or general maintenance, the Weldcraft A-125 Valve TIG Torch Package delivers consistent performance and precise control.
