OVERVIEW

Thermal Arc WeldSkill 17V TIG Torch Package (W4012600)

Upgrade your welding arsenal with the Thermal Arc W4012600 17V TIG Torch Package, a premium accessory kit designed for versatility and performance. This package is built around the industry-standard 17-series air-cooled torch, renowned for its balance of size and amperage capacity. Rated at 150 amps, it handles the majority of light-to-medium duty fabrication tasks with ease. The "17V" configuration features a knurled gas valve on the torch neck, providing manual on/off control of shielding gas, which is a critical requirement for portable inverter welders that operate without integrated gas management systems.

The connection system is designed for reliability and ease of use. The torch power cable is fitted with a 50mm solid male Dinse connector, a standard size for many modern inverter power sources, including the Thermal Arc 161S. This solid connection ensures minimal voltage drop and stable arc performance. The gas supply is handled via an included 10-foot lead hose with 5/8"-18UNF fittings, allowing for ample reach from your gas cylinder to the workpiece. The torch's ergonomic handle and flexible cabling reduce operator fatigue during long welding sessions.

What sets this package apart is the inclusion of a fully stocked TIG accessory kit. You won't need to hunt for compatible parts to get started. The kit includes three sizes of thoriated tungsten (1/16", 3/32", 1/8"), matching collets and collet bodies, and a selection of alumina nozzles (No. 5, 6, 7). It also provides both short and long back caps to accommodate different welding access requirements. This comprehensive loadout makes the W4012600 an excellent value for welders needing a complete, high-quality TIG solution.

FAQ

This package is specifically designed for the Thermal Arc 161S but is compatible with any small stick or TIG welder that is equipped with a female 50mm (standard) Dinse receptacle.

Yes, this is a 17V style torch, which means it has a manual gas valve located on the torch body for controlling shielding gas flow.

The torch power cable comes with a standard 50mm solid male Dinse connector.

The kit includes 1/16", 3/32", and 1/8" thoriated tungsten, collets, and collet bodies; No. 5, 6, and 7 Alumina nozzles; and both short and long back caps.

The package typically includes a 12.5-foot torch power cable and a separate 10-foot (3m) gas hose.

The Thermal Arc 17V is an air-cooled TIG torch rated for approximately 150 amps.

Yes, the manual gas valve makes this torch ideal for scratch start or lift TIG applications on machines without a gas solenoid.

The gas hose features standard 5/8"-18UNF connections, which fit most standard argon flowmeters and regulators.
