The Weldcraft A-200 Valve TIG Torch is the industry standard for heavy-duty, air-cooled TIG welding, formerly marketed as the WP-26 Series. Engineered for rugged performance, this torch package combines high amperage capability with the convenience of air cooling, making it a versatile tool for a wide range of welding applications. The WP-26V-25-R configuration features a 25-foot reach and a standard rubber power cable, offering a balance of durability and maneuverability.
Integrated Gas Valve Control
Designed for versatility, the A-200 Valve model includes a fingertip gas control valve on the torch body. This allows for easy shielding gas management when using welding power sources that do not have a built-in gas solenoid, such as during TIG welding with a Stick machine. The valve provides a simple, reliable method to start and stop gas flow, ensuring proper weld pool protection without the need for complex external setups.
Robust Construction & Performance
At the core of the A-200 is a heavy-duty copper construction that maximizes electrical efficiency and heat dissipation. Rated for 200 amps DC and 150 amps AC (at 60% duty cycle), this torch can handle thicker materials and higher heat inputs than smaller air-cooled torches. The 1-piece rubber power cable is designed to withstand the rigors of the job site, resisting cuts and abrasion better than vinyl alternatives.
Package Contents & Compatibility
This package comes complete with the A-200 Valve torch body, a comfortable handle, the 25-foot power cable, and a long back cap. It utilizes standard 3 Series consumables (collets, collet bodies, nozzles), which are widely available and cost-effective. The torch is compatible with standard 1/2" (12.7 mm) output studs found on most industrial power sources.
