OVERVIEW

Reliable Performance for Your WP-12 Torch

Upgrade your TIG welding setup with the 14N60 Alumina Nozzle Cup, specifically designed to fit the robust WP-12 water-cooled TIG torch. As a welder, you know that the WP-12 is a beast of a torch, built for high-amperage work that melts through thick materials with ease. To keep that torch performing at its peak, you need consumables that can take the heat. This #7 cup (7/16-inch bore) is crafted from premium alumina ceramic, offering the impact resistance and thermal durability you need when the arc is blazing and the heat is rising.

Superior Shielding Gas Flow

Achieving a pristine weld requires perfect gas coverage, and the 14N60 delivers just that. The 7/16-inch opening creates a focused yet broad column of shielding gas, protecting your weld pool from oxidation and porosity. This size is an excellent all-rounder for the heavy-duty applications typical of the WP-12, giving you enough coverage for larger tungsten sizes while still allowing access into tighter joints. The smooth interior finish of the ceramic promotes laminar gas flow, reducing turbulence and ensuring your argon or helium mix gets exactly where it needs to be—over the puddle.

Built for the Heat

Water-cooled torches like the WP-12 are designed to run cool, but the nozzle sits right next to the arc, absorbing tremendous radiant energy. Inferior cups can fracture from thermal shock or crumble after a few heating cycles. The 14N60 is built to resist thermal stress, maintaining its structural integrity even during long welding passes at high amperages. The threaded base ensures a solid mechanical connection to the torch body, preventing the cup from vibrating loose or misaligning during use. This means less time fiddling with your torch and more time laying down beads.

Essential Consumable for Serious Welders

Whether you are repairing heavy equipment, fabricating structural components, or working on specialized alloy projects, the 14N60 is a staple in your consumables kit. It is compatible with standard WP-12 setups, making it a hassle-free replacement for your worn or damaged nozzles. Don't let a cracked cup compromise your weld quality; keep a fresh supply of 14N60 nozzles on hand to ensure you are always ready to tackle the toughest jobs with confidence and precision.

FAQ

The 14N60 nozzle is specifically designed for the WP-12 series TIG torches. These are heavy-duty, water-cooled torches typically rated for up to 500 amps.

The 14N60 is a #7 cup, which corresponds to an orifice diameter of 7/16 of an inch (approximately 11mm).

Yes, the 14N60 features a threaded base that screws directly onto the WP-12 torch body, unlike push-on cups used on smaller torches.

This nozzle is manufactured from high-impact alumina ceramic, which provides excellent heat resistance and durability for high-amperage welding.

Yes, the alumina material withstands the heat of AC welding, and the #7 size provides good gas coverage for the balling of the tungsten typically required in aluminum TIG welding.

The 14N60 is a standard nozzle cup. While the WP-12 torch has specific internal configurations, this cup attaches to the standard torch body setup. Always check your specific torch parts diagram.

These nozzles are typically sold individually or in boxes of 10. Please check the specific quantity listing for the SKU you are purchasing.

Alumina offers better impact resistance and is generally more durable for general-purpose high-amperage welding compared to Lava, although Lava can sometimes withstand even higher heat in specific specialized applications.
