OVERVIEW

Upgrade Your TIG Torch Performance

Take your TIG welding results to the next level with the Weldcraft 45V24 Gas Lens, designed for .040" (1.0mm) tungsten setups. If you are tired of struggling with erratic arcs, porosity caused by poor gas coverage, or difficulty seeing the weld puddle in tight spots, this simple upgrade is the solution. Standard collet bodies often allow shielding gas to exit the nozzle in a turbulent, chaotic cloud. The Weldcraft gas lens changes the game by forcing the gas through a fine mesh screen, organizing it into a smooth, column-like stream that hugs the weld pool and electrode. This means you get cleaner welds with less effort.

Reach Tight Spots with Confidence

Have you ever tried to weld a tight inside corner but couldn't get the torch close enough without dipping the tungsten or losing gas coverage? The Weldcraft 45V24 solves this common headache. Because the gas flow is so stable and focused, you can stick your tungsten out much further than you could with a standard setup. This extended reach gives you a clear line of sight to the arc, allowing for precise manipulation of the puddle even in the most awkward positions. It effectively turns your standard 17, 18, or 26 series torch into a precision instrument capable of handling intricate work with ease.

Genuine Weldcraft Quality

When it comes to TIG consumables, quality matters. Cheap knock-offs often have inconsistent mesh screens that can actually make turbulence worse. These genuine Weldcraft 45V24 lenses are built to last and engineered for consistent performance. They are compatible with the most popular torches on the market, including the Miller Diamondback and Weldcraft WP series. Sold in a value-packed set of two, you'll always have a spare on hand when you need it. Whether you are a hobbyist looking to improve your beads or a professional fabricator demanding the best, switching to a gas lens is one of the most cost-effective upgrades you can make.

FAQ

The 45V24 is compatible with 17, 18, and 26 series TIG torches, including WP-17, WP-18, and WP-26 models.

This gas lens is designed specifically for .040" (1.0mm) diameter tungsten electrodes.

Yes, you must use gas lens compatible nozzles (typically the 54N series) rather than standard collet body nozzles.

This product is sold as a package of 2 gas lenses.

A gas lens creates a laminar gas flow, which improves shielding coverage, reduces turbulence, and allows for greater tungsten stick-out.

Yes, this gas lens is suitable for DC welding on steel/stainless and AC welding on aluminum, provided you are using .040" tungsten.

Because the gas coverage is more efficient and stable, you can often slightly reduce your CFH flow rate compared to standard setups, potentially saving gas over time.

Yes, this is a genuine Weldcraft (Miller Electric) product, ensuring high manufacturing tolerances and material quality.
