The Weldcraft A-200 Flex Valve TIG Torch Package, formerly known as the WP-26FV Series, is a premier solution for heavy-duty welding applications requiring both power and versatility. Designed for professionals in fabrication, field maintenance, and repair, this air-cooled torch eliminates the complexity and expense of water-cooled systems while delivering robust performance. With a rated output of 200 Amps DC and 150 Amps AC, the A-200 is built to handle thicker gauge materials and demanding duty cycles typically found in industrial environments.
This specific package (WP-26FV-12-R) is engineered for maximum adaptability. It features a Flexible Neck (Flex Head), which allows the welder to bend the torch head to various angles, providing superior access to tight corners, pipe joints, and awkward welding positions that rigid torches cannot reach. Additionally, the integrated Gas Control Valve on the torch body offers precise manual control over shielding gas flow. This is particularly advantageous for field operations using power sources that do not have built-in gas solenoids, such as engine-driven welders or stick machines adapted for TIG welding.
Durability is at the core of the A-200 design. The heavy copper construction ensures optimal current transfer and heat dissipation, extending the life of the torch even under rugged fieldwork conditions. The package includes a durable 12.5-foot one-piece rubber power cable that resists abrasion and withstands the rigors of the job site. The ergonomic handle design promotes operator comfort and control, reducing fatigue during long welding sessions. By combining the reliability of the legacy WP-26 series with modern flexibility and control, the Weldcraft A-200 Flex Valve stands out as a top-tier choice for welders who demand efficiency and adaptability.
For maintenance and repair operations (MRO), the ability to adapt to the job is crucial. The A-200 Flex Valve allows technicians to perform high-quality TIG welds in restricted spaces without needing specialized micro-torches. The air-cooled nature of the torch simplifies setup, making it ideal for mobile welding rigs where water cooling is impractical.
