45V25 - Weldcraft 45V25 1/16-inch Gas Lens for 17/18/26 Series Torches (2-Pack)

Genuine Weldcraft 45V25 TIG Gas Lens (1/16")

Upgrade your TIG torch performance with the Weldcraft 45V25 Gas Lens, available in a convenient 2-pack. If you are tired of struggling with poor visibility or inconsistent gas coverage when using standard collet bodies, this is the solution you need. Designed for use with 1/16-inch (1.6mm) tungsten, this gas lens fits all standard 17, 18, and 26 series torches (including WP-17, WP-18, WP-26, and their A/W equivalents). It is one of the most effective and affordable upgrades you can make to your welding setup.

The magic of the 45V25 lies in its internal mesh screen system. Standard collet bodies simply dump gas out of the nozzle, creating turbulence that can pull in outside air and contaminate your weld. The Weldcraft gas lens smooths out that flow into a calm, laminar stream. This means you get a "stiffer" column of gas that protects your weld pool even if there is a slight draft in the shop. More importantly, it allows you to stick your tungsten out much further—sometimes up to an inch—without losing coverage. This is a game-changer for welding inside corners, roll cages, or manifolds where a standard cup just gets in the way.

Using genuine Weldcraft parts means you aren't dealing with cheap knock-offs that have inconsistent threading or poor conductivity. These gas lenses are built to last and provide consistent electrical contact and heat transfer. Whether you are welding stainless steel exhaust systems, aluminum intake pipes, or mild steel brackets, the 45V25 helps you lay down "dimes" with better color and less soot. Stop fighting your equipment and start seeing the puddle clearly with the superior coverage of a gas lens.

Why Welders Choose the 45V25:

• Better Visibility: See around the nozzle by extending your tungsten.
• Cleaner Welds: Less turbulence means less contamination and porosity.
• Gas Savings: Efficient coverage often allows for slightly lower CFH settings.
• Versatility: Works with a wide range of alumina and ceramic cups.
