The Weldcraft R9F Flex Torch Head is a premium replacement component designed for the A-125 Series (formerly known as the WP-9 series) of air-cooled TIG torches. Engineered for professional welding environments where accessibility and precision are paramount, this torch head features a flexible neck that can be adjusted to various angles. This flexibility is critical for maintenance, repair, and fabrication tasks involving complex geometries, pipe welding, or confined spaces where a rigid torch head cannot maintain the proper electrode angle. The R9F is rated for 125 amps DC and 100 amps AC at a 60% duty cycle, making it an ideal choice for light-to-medium duty applications on materials such as aluminum, stainless steel, and mild steel.
Constructed from high-performance red silicone rubber, the R9F body offers superior resistance to high temperatures and cracking compared to standard hard plastic torch heads. This high-dielectric insulation ensures operator safety and prevents high-frequency leakage, which is essential for consistent arc starting and stability. The internal copper components are designed to maximize current transfer efficiency while minimizing heat buildup, ensuring the torch remains comfortable to hold during extended welding sessions. As an air-cooled component, it simplifies the welding setup by removing the need for external water cooling systems, thereby increasing portability for field work.
The R9F is fully compatible with standard Series 9 (13N series) consumables, including collets, collet bodies, gas lenses, and alumina cups. This universal compatibility ensures that shops can utilize existing inventory without the need for specialized parts. It is designed to thread seamlessly onto the Weldcraft 150TB handle and connects to standard power cables used in the A-125/WP-9 system. Whether used in aerospace, motorsports fabrication, or general industrial maintenance, the Weldcraft R9F provides the reliability and adaptability required by skilled TIG welders.
