Weldcraft Torches Offer Uncompromising Performance in a Small Package
APPLETON, Wis. May 22, 2007— Designed to meet the demands of continuous mechanized TIG welding in confined and harsh environments, Weldcraft offers the WP-22 and WP-23 lines of machine torches. Available in either 7 3/4-in. or 4 1/2-in. sizes, these torches fit nearly any fixture configuration and feature Weldcraft’s signature quality and unmatched features.
Both torches feature front or back tungsten loading and tightening and a heavy-duty power cable that can withstand the toughest environments. Optional gas lenses are available for all four WP-22 and WP-23 torch models.
Designed for light- to medium-amperage applications with tight spatial requirements, the WP-22 is a water-cooled torch rated to 250 amps at 100 percent duty cycle. The WP-22A torch is 7 3/4-in. long and uses a 7-in. tungsten electrode. The WP-22B torch is 4 1/2-in. long and takes 3-in. electrodes. Both torches accept tungsten ranging from .040- to 1/8-in. diameter.
Ideal for thin material applications with V-Block mounting fixtures, the air-cooled WP-23 line of torches are rated to 150 amps at 60 percent duty cycle. Available either as the 7 3/4-in. WP-23A torch or the 4 1/2-in. WP-23B torch, with corresponding 7-in. or 3-in. tungsten sizes, this series of torches features consumables (excluding the collets) that are interchangeable with the WP-20 manual torch series.
