Key Benefits

  • 10x Longer Lifespan: Eliminates warping and twisting common in split collets, reducing replacement frequency.
  • Superior Arc Performance: Improves arc starts and stability for cleaner, more precise welds.
  • Reduced Torch Wear: Requires less back cap pressure, extending thread life on torch heads.
  • Efficient Heat Transfer: Tungsten direct contact with collet body minimizes resistance and overheating.
  • Universal Fit: Works with standard collet bodies and gas lenses for versatile use.

Applications

Perfect for industrial TIG welding, automotive repair, metal fabrication, and precision engineering. Compatible with all standard TIG setups using WP17/WP18/WP26 torches, ensuring reliable performance across steel, aluminum, and stainless steel projects.

Why Choose Wedge Collets?

Traditional split collets fail due to uneven heating and deformation. Our wedge design distributes pressure evenly, gripping tungsten at the top of the collet for consistent alignment. This reduces downtime, lowers maintenance costs, and elevates weld quality¡ªmaking it the preferred choice for professionals.

FAQ

Q: Will this fit my WP20 torch?
A: No, this collet is designed for WP17, WP18, and WP26 models only.

Q: How does wedge technology improve welding?
A: It ensures uniform grip and heat distribution, preventing tungsten misalignment and collet warping.

Q: Can I use these with gas lenses?
A: Yes, they are compatible with all standard gas lenses and collet bodies.
