OVERVIEW

Get Better Coverage with the ESAB 53N59 #5 Cup

If you are looking to step up your TIG game, switching to a gas lens setup is one of the best upgrades you can make for your WP-9 or WP-20 torch. The ESAB 53N59 is the Size #5 (5/16") alumina cup designed specifically for that purpose. Unlike standard cups that just dump gas out, this nozzle works with your gas lens to smooth out the flow, giving you that buttery-smooth laminar coverage that makes stacking dimes so much easier.

Why does this matter? With the laminar flow provided by this nozzle setup, you can stick your tungsten out significantly further—sometimes up to an inch depending on conditions—without losing your gas shield. This is a game-changer when you are trying to weld inside a corner, a deep V-groove, or around a roll cage tube where a standard cup would block your view. The #5 size is perfect for general-purpose work on thinner materials where you want a tight gas column to keep the heat affected zone clean.

Made from durable pink alumina ceramic, this cup handles the heat of daily welding while resisting spatter adhesion. Whether you are working on a custom exhaust, fixing a mold, or practicing your root passes, the 53N59 gives you the visibility and gas protection you need to lay down perfect beads every time. Don't settle for turbulence; upgrade your front-end parts and see the difference.

FAQ

It fits WP-9, WP-20, WP-25, and WP-24 series torches equipped with a gas lens collet body.

No, the 53N59 is designed specifically for gas lens collet bodies (like the 45V43, 45V44, 45V45 series). It will not thread onto a standard collet body.

A #5 cup has an inner diameter of 5/16 of an inch, or approximately 8.0 millimeters.

It is made from high-impact alumina ceramic, known for its excellent heat resistance and electrical insulation properties.

Gas lens nozzles provide laminar gas flow, which improves shielding coverage and allows for a longer tungsten stick-out for better visibility.

Yes, 53N59 is a standard industry part number and is generally interchangeable with other major brands of TIG consumables for the same torch series.

This item is typically sold individually (1 per each) unless a bulk pack is specified.

No, 17, 18, and 26 series torches use the larger 54N series cups for gas lenses. This 53N series is for the smaller front-end torches.
