OVERVIEW

Industrial Grade Water-Cooled TIG Torch Package

The Weldcraft W-350 TIG Torch Package (SKU: WP-18-25-R) is the definitive solution for high-amperage, continuous hand-held welding applications. Formerly known as the WP-18 Series, this torch system has been re-designated under the W-Series to align with modern industrial standards while maintaining the robust architecture that fabricators rely on. Engineered for heavy-duty performance, the W-350 is rated at 350 Amps DC and 250 Amps AC, making it capable of handling thick aluminum sections, heavy-wall pipe, and structural steel fabrication without thermal compromise.

The package features a highly efficient water-cooling system that circulates coolant around the head components. This design effectively dissipates the intense heat generated during high-current welding, significantly extending the lifespan of consumables and protecting the torch body from thermal stress. The rigid head design provides a stable, fixed angle (typically 70 degrees), which is essential for mechanized setups or manual applications requiring precise, repetitive torch positioning. The torch body is encased in a textured handle designed to improve grip stability and reduce operator strain.

A key component of this package is the 25-foot, 3-piece braided rubber power cable assembly. Unlike standard vinyl cables, braided rubber offers superior flexibility and resistance to abrasion, hot surfaces, and kinking, ensuring reliable current delivery in rugged shop environments. The kit includes the W-350 torch body, handle, long back cap, and all necessary hoses (power, gas, and water) for immediate integration with a water cooler and power source. It utilizes standard 3 Series (10N) consumables, ensuring broad compatibility with existing inventory.

FAQ

There is no functional difference; W-350 is the new model name for the torch formerly known as the WP-18 Series. It retains the same specs and consumable compatibility.

The W-350 is rated for 350 Amps DC and 250 Amps AC at 100% duty cycle.

No, this model features a rigid head without a gas control valve. Gas flow is controlled by the welding machine solenoid.

It uses the standard 3 Series (10N series) consumables, including collets, collet bodies, and alumina nozzles.

This specific package (WP-18-25-R) comes with high-durability braided rubber cables.

Yes, this is a water-cooled torch and requires a recirculating water cooler to operate safely and prevent damage.

The leads are 25 feet (7.6 meters) long.

Yes, the rigid head design and high amperage capacity make it excellent for walking the cup on heavy-wall pipe.
