OVERVIEW

Master Difficult Angles with the Weldcraft A-150 Flex Valve

For welders who demand versatility and control in the field, the Weldcraft A-150 Flex Valve TIG Torch Package (formerly WP-17FV-12-2) is the ultimate tool. Designed to bridge the gap between comfort and functionality, this air-cooled torch is engineered for those tricky, hard-to-reach joints that standard rigid torches simply cannot access. The "Flex" in the name refers to the adjustable neck, which can be bent to various angles, allowing you to maintain the perfect electrode angle even inside roll cages, pipe clusters, or tight engine bays.

Beyond its flexibility, this model features a built-in gas control valve directly on the torch body. This is a game-changer for welders using power sources that lack an internal gas solenoid, such as engine drives or basic stick machines set up for scratch-start TIG. You have full control over shielding gas flow right at your fingertips, reducing waste and simplifying your setup. The package comes complete with a durable 12.5-foot, 2-piece rubber power cable that offers superior resistance to heat and abrasion compared to standard vinyl cables.

Comfort is paramount during long welding sessions. The A-150 Series utilizes the innovative Diamond Grip™ head design, providing ergonomic contact points for your thumb and fingers. Combined with the ribbed handle, this torch runs cooler and reduces the hand fatigue that often leads to inconsistent welds. Whether you are performing maintenance in a factory or creating metal art in your garage, the A-150 Flex Valve provides the adaptability you need to produce high-quality welds in any position.
