OVERVIEW

Reliable Shielding for Precision TIG Welding

When you are laying down critical beads on stainless steel or aluminum, the last thing you need is a cracked cup disrupting your gas flow. The ESAB 14N66 #5 Alumina Cup is built to handle the rigors of the shop. Designed for the popular HW-9 and WP-9 style torches, this cup provides the durability and consistency professional welders demand. Whether you are working on thin-gauge automotive exhaust or intricate aerospace components, this #5 cup gives you the visibility and access you need.

Why Choose High Impact?
Standard ceramic cups are notorious for being brittle. One accidental drop or a little too much heat shock, and they crack. The "HI" (High Impact) designation on this ESAB cup means it is crafted from a tougher alumina blend. It stands up better to the heat of the arc and the bumps and bruises of daily use. This translates to fewer interruptions and less money spent on replacing broken consumables.

Perfect Fit and Flow
With a 5/16-inch opening, the #5 size is a versatile workhorse for light-duty TIG work. It concentrates the shielding gas effectively around the tungsten, allowing you to weld with lower gas flow rates while still protecting the puddle. It screws effortlessly onto your standard collet body, ensuring a tight seal to prevent atmospheric contamination. Keep a pack of these in your toolbox to ensure your HW-9 or WP-20 torch is always ready for action.

FAQ

It fits ESAB HW-9 torches, as well as industry-standard WP-9 (air-cooled) and WP-20 (water-cooled) TIG torches.

The #5 indicates the orifice diameter in sixteenths of an inch. A #5 cup has a 5/16" (approx. 8mm) opening.

No, this is a standard alumina cup designed for standard collet bodies. Gas lens setups typically require different nozzles (often the 53N series for 9/20 torches).

It is made from High Impact Alumina ceramic, which offers better durability and heat resistance than standard ceramic cups.

Replace the cup if it becomes cracked, chipped, or heavily built up with spatter that disrupts gas flow.

No, WP-17, WP-18, and WP-26 torches use larger front-end parts (10N series cups). This cup is too small for those torches.

The product name indicates a quantity of 10, suggesting these are often distributed in boxes of 10, though they may be sold individually depending on the retailer.
