OVERVIEW

Unmatched Versatility for Difficult Welds

The Weldcraft A-200 Flex (formerly known as the WP-26F) is a premium air-cooled TIG torch body designed to solve the most common frustration in welding: reaching the joint comfortably. Standard rigid torches force you into awkward positions, but the A-200 Flex features a malleable neck that can be bent to virtually any angle. This allows you to maintain the proper tungsten angle and arc length even in tight corners, inside pipes, or around complex roll cages. Whether you are a professional fabricator or a serious hobbyist, the ability to customize your torch geometry on the fly is a game-changer for weld quality and operator comfort.

Manufactured by Miller Electric under the renowned Weldcraft brand, this torch body is built to withstand the rigors of industrial environments. It retains the robust power handling of the standard A-200 series, offering a substantial 200-amp capacity in a package that doesn't require a water cooler. This makes it an excellent choice for field work, maintenance trucks, and shops where portability and simplicity are key. The transition from the "WP-26" nomenclature to the "A-200" series represents a modernization of the naming convention, but the part remains the exact same high-quality component welders have trusted for decades.

Durability is at the core of the design. The torch body is constructed with heavy copper components to ensure efficient current transfer and heat dissipation, preventing the overheating that plagues lesser torches. The exterior is encased in high-dielectric silicon rubber insulation, which not only protects the torch from physical damage but also ensures safety by preventing high-frequency leakage during arc starting. When you choose the A-200 Flex, you are investing in a tool that adapts to your needs while delivering consistent, reliable performance weld after weld.

FAQ

There is no physical difference. Weldcraft rebranded the WP-26 series to the A-200 series. The 'A' stands for Air-cooled and '200' for the amperage rating. WP-26F is the legacy part number still widely used for reference.

No, this item is the torch body only. Handles, cables, and consumables are sold separately or reused from your existing setup.

It uses standard 26-series consumables (also compatible with 18 and 17 series for some parts), including 10N series collets and bodies, and 57Y series back caps.

The A-200 Flex is rated for 60% duty cycle at 200 amps DC or 150 amps AC.

No, the A-200 Flex is strictly an air-cooled torch body. For a similar amperage water-cooled torch, you would look for the W-200 (formerly WP-20) or W-250 (formerly WP-20).

The head can be adjusted up to 40 degrees from the centerline in any direction. Avoid bending it while it is hot or bending it sharply back and forth repeatedly to extend its lifespan.

Yes, this is a genuine Miller Weldcraft component, ensuring the highest quality copper and insulation materials are used.

It fits standard 1-piece or 2-piece power cables designed for 26-series air-cooled torches, typically with a 7/8-14 RH thread connection.
