OVERVIEW

Master Every Angle with the Parker 17 Series Flex Torch

Stop fighting with your equipment and start welding with precision. The Parker AWP 17 Flex Head TIG Torch is designed for welders who know that comfort and access are key to a perfect bead. The standout feature of this torch is its flexible neck, which allows you to bend the torch head to the exact angle needed for the job. Whether you are welding a roll cage, working inside a manifold, or navigating a tight corner in a repair job, the flex head ensures you can keep your tungsten positioned correctly without contorting your body into uncomfortable positions.

This 150-Amp air-cooled torch is a workhorse for general fabrication. It handles enough power for most 1/8" and 3/16" material thicknesses while remaining lightweight and easy to maneuver. The 12.5-foot lead gives you plenty of room to move around your workbench without getting tangled in excess cable. Because it is air-cooled, you don't have to worry about the hassle of water coolers, pumps, or leaking coolant lines—just plug it in, hook up your gas, and you are ready to weld.

The "2-Piece" cable design is ideal for older machines or specific setups that require a separate lug for power and a direct gas line connection. This configuration is often preferred for its durability and ease of repair. Parker has built this torch with the welder in mind, using high-heat resistant silicone rubber insulation that resists cracking and abrasion in tough shop environments. Compatible with all your standard 17-series cups, collets, and gas lenses, this torch is an easy upgrade that fits right into your existing consumable inventory.

Why Choose the Parker AWP 17 Flex?

  • Access Tight Spots: Bend the head to weld around corners and pipes easily.
  • Lightweight Comfort: Air-cooled design keeps the torch light, reducing wrist strain.
  • Durable Build: High-quality materials withstand shop abuse and heat.
  • Universal Parts: Uses standard consumables you likely already have in your toolbox.

The flex head can be adjusted up to approximately 180 degrees from vertical, but it is recommended to minimize excessive repetitive bending to prolong the life of the internal copper conductor.

The torch is rated at 35% duty cycle at 150 Amps DC.

This specific SKU describes the torch body and cable assembly. Depending on the specific packaging, a switch may be included or sold separately. Please check the 'Includes' section or contact support.

Yes, but the amperage rating for AC is lower, typically around 115 Amps, due to the heat generation characteristics of AC welding.

Yes, the 12.5ft refers to the length of the cable assembly from the torch handle to the machine connector.
