PWP17FX - Parker WP-17FX Flexible Head Air-Cooled TIG Torch Body 150A

Reach the Unreachable with the WP17FX Flex Head

Every TIG welder knows the frustration of trying to weld a joint that is just out of reach or positioned at an awkward angle. A standard rigid torch forces you to contort your hand or compromise your travel angle, leading to poor gas coverage and potential weld defects. The Parker WP17FX Flex Head TIG Torch Body is the solution to these common fabrication headaches. Designed with a bendable neck, this torch body allows you to customize the angle of the tungsten simply by bending the head to the desired position. This feature is a game-changer for automotive fabricators working on exhaust manifolds, roll cages, or intake piping.

Despite its flexibility, the WP17FX is a workhorse. It is an air-cooled body rated for 150 amps, making it perfect for welding steel, stainless steel, and aluminum in light-to-medium duty applications. Because it is air-cooled, you don't need to drag around a heavy water cooler or deal with leaking hoses—just hook it up to your machine and gas supply, and you are ready to weld. The body accepts all standard 17-series consumables, so you can use the cups, collets, and gas lenses you already have in your toolbox.

Comfort is key during long welding sessions. The WP17FX is lightweight and balanced, reducing strain on your wrist. The high-quality silicone rubber coating ensures the torch stays cool enough to handle and resists cracking over time. Whether you are repairing a boat rail, building a custom motorcycle frame, or performing maintenance in a tight boiler room, the WP17FX gives you the control and access you need to lay down perfect beads every time.
