WP-26FV-12-2 - Weldcraft A-200 Flex Valve TIG Torch Package, 12.5ft, 2-Piece Rubber Cable

Heavy-Duty Air-Cooled Performance

The Weldcraft A-200 Flex Valve TIG Torch Package (formerly the WP-26FV Series) is engineered for demanding industrial applications where reliability and versatility are paramount. This 200-amp air-cooled torch system eliminates the complexity and expense of water-cooled setups while delivering robust performance suitable for heavy copper construction and rugged fieldwork. The WP-26FV-12-2 configuration includes a 12.5-foot, 2-piece rubber power cable assembly, offering distinct separation between the power conductor and the gas supply, which is essential for specific power source connections.

Flexibility and Control

Distinguished by its "Flex Valve" designation, this model integrates two critical features for maintenance and repair operations (MRO). First, the flexible neck allows the operator to bend the torch head to various angles, facilitating access to restricted or awkwardly positioned weld joints often found in piping and shipboard installation. Second, the built-in gas control valve provides manual management of shielding gas flow directly at the torch. This feature is indispensable when pairing the torch with TIG or Stick welding power sources that lack an internal gas solenoid, granting the operator full autonomy over gas coverage.

Compatibility and Durability

The A-200 Series utilizes the widely available Weldcraft 10N series consumables (shared with the A-150 series), ensuring that replacement parts like collets, collet bodies, and nozzles are easy to source. The heavy-duty rubber cable insulation offers superior resistance to abrasion and heat compared to vinyl alternatives, making it well-suited for harsh shop environments. Rated for 200 amps DC and 150 amps AC at a 60% duty cycle, this torch package provides a dependable solution for fabrication, aerospace, and petrochemical industries requiring a versatile air-cooled tool.
