OVERVIEW

Industrial Grade Parker WP17 Flex TIG Torch

Maximize your welding efficiency with the Parker WP17 Flex Head TIG Torch, a robust solution designed for the rigors of industrial environments. This torch assembly comes equipped with a 12.5-foot lead and a 1-piece cable configuration, offering a streamlined connection to your power source. The "Flex" designation refers to the torch body's ability to bend, providing welders with the ergonomic advantage needed to execute precise welds in confined spaces, such as roll cages, pipe clusters, or complex machinery repairs.

With a duty cycle rating suitable for 150 Amps DC and 105 Amps AC, this torch is the workhorse of the air-cooled category. It strikes the perfect balance between power capacity and physical size, making it small enough for intricate work but powerful enough for general fabrication. The handle is designed with ergonomics in mind, featuring a textured grip that ensures secure handling even with welding gloves. The 1-piece rubber cable is highly flexible and resistant to abrasion, ensuring a long service life in tough shop conditions.

Integration is seamless; the torch utilizes standard industry connections and is compatible with the vast ecosystem of 17, 18, and 26 series consumables. This means you can swap out gas lenses, nozzles, and tungsten electrodes without hunting for proprietary parts. Upgrade your welding rig with a torch that adapts to your needs—the Parker WP17 Flex Head delivers consistent performance and superior arc control.

FAQ

It uses standard 17-series consumables, which are also compatible with 18 and 26 series torches (10N series collets/bodies, 57N nozzles).

A flex head allows you to bend the neck of the torch to change the angle of the tungsten, making it much easier to weld in tight corners or around obstructions.

This is an air-cooled torch, rated for up to 150 amps. It relies on the shielding gas and ambient air to dissipate heat.

A 1-piece cable means the power conductor runs inside the gas hose. This results in a single, lighter cable connecting to the machine, rather than separate power and gas lines.

It can be used on most TIG welders that accept a standard 1-piece power cable connection. You may need a specific DINSE adapter or stud connector depending on your machine's front panel.

The standard rating for a WP17 torch is typically 150 Amps DC at 35% duty cycle.

This specific SKU is typically for the torch body and cable assembly. Switches are usually sold separately or integrated into specific handle kits, but standard WP17 torches often use lift-arc or pedal control unless a switch is specified.
