84Z33 - ESAB Heliarc HW-9 Collet 1/16-inch (Pack of 2)

Genuine ESAB 84Z33 1/16" Collet (Pack of 2)

Maximize the performance of your ESAB Heliarc TIG torch with the ESAB 84Z33 Collet. Designed exclusively for the HW-9 series torches, this consumable is engineered to hold 1/16-inch (1.6mm) tungsten electrodes with absolute precision. TIG welding requires exacting standards, and the interface between the power source and the tungsten is critical. This collet ensures optimal current transfer from the torch body to the electrode, providing the stable, focused arc that professional welders demand.

Constructed from high-grade copper alloy, the 84Z33 collet is built to withstand the thermal cycling inherent in welding processes. Inferior collets often suffer from rapid deformation or oxidation, leading to poor arc starts and wandering arcs. ESAB's manufacturing tolerances ensure that the collet compresses evenly around the tungsten when the back cap is tightened, preventing "hot spots" that can damage both the collet and the collet body. This pack includes two collets, offering excellent value and ensuring you have a backup ready for when routine maintenance is required.

The HW-9 torch is a favorite among fabricators for its lightweight design and accessibility in tight spaces. Using a 1/16" tungsten allows for fine control on low-amperage applications. To maintain this control, the collet must be free of defects and perfectly matched to the electrode diameter. The 84Z33 fits this requirement perfectly. It is compatible with standard gas lens setups and standard collet bodies used within the HW-9 system, making it a versatile addition to your consumables kit.

Welders Supply Company is your trusted source for genuine ESAB parts. We recommend checking your collets regularly for signs of wear, such as discoloration or twisting, and replacing them immediately to preserve the life of your torch head. With the ESAB 84Z33, you get the reliability and durability associated with the Heliarc name, ensuring your welds remain clean, consistent, and professional.
