BWSVTR-17F - 17 Series Flex Head TIG Torch Body - 150A Air Cooled

Get Into Tight Spots with the VTR-17F Flex Head

Every TIG welder knows the frustration of trying to lay a perfect bead in a spot where your torch just won't fit comfortably. The VTR-17F Flex Head TIG Torch Body is the solution to that problem. Unlike standard rigid torches that force you into awkward body positions to maintain your torch angle, this flex head allows you to physically bend the neck of the torch. This means you can angle the head to 45 degrees, 90 degrees, or whatever the job demands, keeping your wrist comfortable and your tungsten right where it needs to be.

This torch body is designed to handle 150 Amps of power, making it perfect for welding steel, stainless steel, and aluminum in garage, shop, or field settings. It is an air-cooled body, meaning you don't need a bulky water cooler to run it—just hook it up to your gas and power cable, and you are ready to weld. The body is wrapped in a durable, high-heat silicone rubber that provides excellent grip and protects against the heat of the arc. It feels solid in the hand and stands up to the wear and tear of daily use.

Compatibility is key for any welder's toolkit. The VTR-17F fits all standard 17-series handles and power cables. If you already have a WP-17 or SR-17 torch, you can swap out your old rigid body for this flex version in minutes. It also uses the same consumables you already own—standard collets, gas lenses, and cups all fit perfectly. Whether you are building a roll cage, working on exhaust headers, or doing intricate artistic metalwork, the control and versatility of a flex head torch will immediately improve your welding experience.

• Improved Comfort: Keep your hand in a natural position while the torch does the bending.
