OVERVIEW

Keep Your Parker #5 Torch Running Smoothly

If you are running a Parker #5 MIG gun, you know that the front-end parts take a beating. The P55SW Gas Diffuser is the part that keeps everything flowing correctly right at the business end of your torch. It connects your contact tip to the gun and, more importantly, it smooths out the shielding gas as it exits the nozzle. When your diffuser is clean and in good shape, you get that nice, hiss-free gas coverage that protects your puddle and keeps your bead looking slick. If it’s clogged up with spatter or worn out, you’re going to fight turbulence, porosity, and an unstable arc.

These diffusers are built to handle the heat. We know that when you are burning wire all day, things get hot, and lesser quality parts can warp or strip out. The P55SW is made from durable material that holds up to the thermal stress of high-amperage welding. It threads on tight to your Parker #5 neck, giving your contact tip a solid foundation. A loose tip means a wandering arc, and nobody has time for that. Swapping out your diffuser is one of the easiest ways to troubleshoot a finicky gun. If you are noticing gas coverage issues or your tip keeps loosening up, check your diffuser.

We sell these in a pack of 5 because we know how it goes in the shop. You don't want to be stuck waiting on a delivery truck when you have a deadline to meet. Toss a pack of these in your toolbox or keep them in the supply cabinet. Having a fresh diffuser on hand means you can swap it out the moment you suspect an issue and get right back to welding. Whether you are fabricating structural steel, repairing heavy equipment, or doing production MIG work, the P55SW ensures your Parker gun performs like it should.

Don't let a cheap consumable ruin a good weld. Trust the P55SW to deliver the current and the gas exactly where you need it. It’s a small part that makes a big difference in your daily welding life.
