OVERVIEW

Reliable Parts for Your TIG Torch

Keep your TIG torch running smoothly with the ESAB 10N30 Collet Body 5-pack. If you are running .040" (1.0mm) tungsten for fine detail work, this is the part you need to hold everything together. We all know that worn-out consumables cause headaches—sputtering arcs, poor starts, and wandering tungsten. Often, the collet body is the overlooked culprit. Threads get stripped, or the seat for the collet gets worn down, making it impossible to get a good grip on your electrode. Swapping in a fresh ESAB 10N30 ensures your current transfer is solid and your tungsten stays exactly where you put it.

These collet bodies are made from durable brass and are built to take the heat. They are designed to fit the most common TIG torches out there: the air-cooled 17 and 26 series, and the water-cooled 18 series. This universal fit means you don't need to worry about whether it will screw into your rig—if you're using a standard torch, this part fits. The .040" size is perfect for low-amperage work on thin materials like sheet metal, tubing, or delicate repairs where precision is everything.

Why buy a 5-pack? Because dropping a hot part on a concrete floor usually ruins the threads, and realizing you are out of spares at 4 PM on a Friday is a nightmare. Having a few extra collet bodies in your toolbox means you are always ready to weld. These are genuine quality parts that thread in smoothly and hold tight. Don't let a cheap or worn-out part ruin your weld; stick with reliable consumables that help you lay down those stack-of-dimes beads every time.

Installation is straightforward: remove your ceramic cup, unscrew the old body, and thread this one in. Make sure to match it with a .040" collet for a perfect fit. Whether you are a hobbyist working in the garage or a pro in the fabrication shop, these collet bodies deliver the consistency you need to focus on your puddle, not your equipment.

FAQ

The 10N30 collet body is compatible with 17, 18, and 26 series TIG torches, which includes both air-cooled and water-cooled models.

This collet body is designed specifically for .040" (1.0mm) diameter tungsten electrodes.

Collet bodies should be replaced when the threads become damaged, the seating surface for the collet is worn, or if there is significant buildup of spatter or oxidation that affects conductivity or gas flow.

No, the 10N30 is a standard collet body. Gas lens collet bodies have a different part number structure (typically 45V series for these torches) and include a mesh screen for improved gas coverage.

No, you must match the collet body size to the tungsten diameter. For 3/32" tungsten, you would need a 10N32 collet body.

It is manufactured from high-quality brass to ensure good electrical conductivity and heat resistance.

No, this package contains only the collet bodies. The split collets (part number 10N22 for .040") are sold separately.

The collet body transfers the welding current from the torch to the collet and tungsten. Poor contact increases resistance, causing the torch to overheat and the arc to become unstable.
