WP-26F - Weldcraft A-200 Flex (WP-26F) Air-Cooled TIG Torch Body

Heavy-Duty Air-Cooled Specification

The Miller Weldcraft A-200 Flex (Stock Code: WP-26F) is the industry-standard replacement body for 26-series air-cooled TIG torches. Engineered for heavy-duty applications, this torch body is rated for 200 amps DC and 150 amps AC at a 60% duty cycle. It utilizes the "A-Series" (formerly WP Series) architecture, making it fully compatible with all standard 10N series collets, collet bodies, and alumina cups, as well as 57Y back caps. This cross-compatibility ensures that integrating the A-200 Flex into your existing inventory of consumables is seamless and cost-effective.

The defining technical feature of this model is the flexible neck assembly. Unlike the rigid WP-26, the WP-26F incorporates a specialized internal copper coil mechanism that permits the head to rotate and bend. This mechanical flexibility does not compromise the current carrying capacity, thanks to Weldcraft's superior engineering. The body is insulated with resilient, high-temperature silicon rubber that resists cracking and withstands the radiant heat generated during high-amperage welding. This insulation is critical for maintaining high-frequency arc starting reliability and protecting the operator from electrical hazards.

Installation is straightforward, featuring standard threading to accept power cables and handles common to the 26-series platform. It is an ideal solution for MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) applications where water-cooling infrastructure is unavailable but higher amperage capacity than a 17-series torch is required. The A-200 Flex bridges the gap between light-duty portability and heavy-duty output, providing the thermal mass necessary for welding thicker aluminum and steel sections while offering the ergonomic benefits of a positional head.
