OVERVIEW

The Toughest TIG Cup for High-Amp Welding

When the heat is on, standard ceramic cups often fail. The CK Worldwide 3SG8 Super Cup is the solution for welders tired of hearing that familiar "crack" sound after a long bead. Built from industrial-grade Silicone Nitride, this nozzle is designed to survive where standard alumina cups shatter. It is the ultimate upgrade for your 17, 18, or 26 series TIG torch, specifically engineered to handle the intense reflective heat generated during high-amperage AC aluminum welding and heavy DC steel applications.

Why choose Silicone Nitride? It's all about thermal endurance. This Super Cup reduces thermal conductivity by roughly 40%, meaning it absorbs less heat and dissipates what it does absorb more effectively. This resistance to thermal shock makes Alumina nozzles obsolete for high-heat applications. If you are pushing your torch to its duty cycle limits, you need a cup that can keep up. The 3SG8 minimizes the risk of thermal stress cracking, ensuring that your shielding gas coverage remains consistent and your workflow remains uninterrupted.

Product Specifications:

  • Size: #8 (1/2-inch ID)
  • Length: 1-5/8 inches
  • Material: Silicone Nitride (Gray)
  • Series: 3 Series (Fits 17, 18, 26, 150, 210, 300, 510, and equivalent torches)

This nozzle is a direct replacement for standard parts, threading easily onto your existing torch body or gas lens assembly. It is an essential accessory for any welder looking to reduce replacement part costs and eliminate the frustration of fragile consumables. Whether you are in a production environment or a custom fab shop, the CK 3SG8 Super Cup delivers the durability you need to keep the arc lit and the beads flowing.

FAQ

The CK 3SG8 Super Cup is made of Silicone Nitride (gray), which is much stronger and more resistant to thermal shock than standard Alumina (pink) cups. It handles higher heat without cracking.

Yes, the 3SG8 is a 3 Series part, which is fully compatible with WP-17, WP-18, and WP-26 style torches.

The '8' in the part number indicates it is a size #8 cup, which has a 1/2-inch (12.7mm) inside diameter.

Generally, no. The 3SG8 threads onto standard collet bodies and gas lenses used on 3 Series torches.

Aluminum welding often reflects a significant amount of heat back toward the torch. Silicone Nitride withstands this reflective heat and thermal shock much better than standard ceramic.

It reduces thermal conductivity by approximately 40% compared to standard alumina nozzles.

This item is sold individually (1 per package).

Absolutely. While it excels in high-heat AC applications, its durability makes it an excellent long-lasting choice for DC welding as well.
