If you are running a 24 Series TIG torch, you know that these little micro-torches are lifesavers when you need to get into a tight corner or weld intricate details. But because everything on a WP-24 or HW-24 is scaled down, the consumables can be delicate. The 53N16 collet is the standard part you need when you are running .040" (1.0mm) tungsten. Whether you are working on thin gauge aluminum, stainless steel tubing, or detailed automotive parts, having a fresh collet is key to keeping your arc smooth and steady.
We know the frustration of a slipping tungsten. You tighten the back cap, but the electrode still slides back when you put a little pressure on it. That usually means your collet is shot—twisted from heat or just worn out. This 2-pack of generic 53N16 collets is a perfect, budget-friendly way to refresh your torch. They are built to match the "Linde Style" specs, meaning they fit perfectly in your Weldcraft, Miller, or CK 24-style torches. They grip the tungsten tight and conduct power efficiently, so you don't have to worry about your settings fluctuating mid-weld.
These collets are made from high-quality copper to handle the heat and current. Since 24 series torches are often used for precision work where every amp counts, you don't want a worn-out collet messing up your gas coverage or arc focus. Swap out your old, burnt collets with these fresh ones and get back to stacking dimes in those hard-to-reach places. Keep a pack in your toolbox so you aren't left scrambling when you're in the middle of a critical job.
