OVERVIEW

Reliable 3/32" Collet Body for TIG Torches | 13N42

Keep your TIG torch running smoothly with the 13N42 Collet Body, the industry-standard replacement for 3/32" (2.4mm) setups. If you are welding with a lightweight air-cooled WP-9 or the heavy-duty water-cooled WP-20, this collet body is the essential link between your power source and your arc. Made from durable copper, it withstands the intense heat of the welding environment while maintaining the conductivity needed for a crisp, stable arc.

Over time, collet bodies can become threaded, warped, or clogged with spatter, leading to frustrating welding issues. Swapping out your old collet body for a fresh 13N42 is a quick and inexpensive maintenance step that can drastically improve your weld quality. This part works in conjunction with a 13N23 collet and standard alumina cups to create a focused shield gas stream around your weld pool.

Don't let worn consumables hold you back. This collet body is designed for easy installation and long service life. It is compatible with a wide range of TIG torches from major brands including Weldcraft, Miller, Lincoln, CK Worldwide, and ESAB. Stock up on these essential consumables to ensure you are never left without a working torch in the middle of a project.

Features & Benefits

  • Universal Fit: Fits almost all 9/20 style TIG torches.
  • Optimal Conductivity: Pure copper alloy construction minimizes resistance.
  • Secure Grip: Ensures the collet clamps the tungsten tightly for precise control.
  • Cost-Effective: High-quality replacement part at an affordable price point.

This collet body is designed specifically for 3/32-inch (2.4mm) tungsten electrodes.

No, the 13N42 is a standard collet body. The gas lens equivalent for 3/32" in this series is part number 45V44.

Replace the collet body if the threads become damaged, if it shows signs of overheating (discoloration/warping), or if the collet no longer seats properly inside it.

Yes, you must use a matching 3/32" collet, typically part number 13N23.

Yes, the collet body works for both AC (aluminum) and DC (steel/stainless) welding processes, provided you are using the correct tungsten.

The input data may contain a mislabeling. The SKU 13N42 universally refers to a 3/32" TIG Collet Body in the welding industry.
