If you are TIG welding pipe, manifolds, or intricate roll cages, you know the struggle: you need to get the torch into a tight corner, but your standard cup is too long, or you have to stick your tungsten out so far that you lose gas coverage and get porosity. The Weldcraft 995795S Large Stubby Gas Lens is the solution. This isn't just a standard gas lens; it's the "Large Diameter Stubby" version for 1/8" (3.2mm) tungsten. It gives you the best of both worlds: the massive gas coverage of a jumbo lens and the compact, low-profile size of a stubby kit.
When you swap your standard collet body for this gas lens, you change the way the argon leaves your torch. Instead of tumbling out in a turbulent cloud, the gas is forced through a series of fine mesh screens. This straightens the flow into a smooth, laminar column. Why does this matter? It means you can stick your tungsten out—sometimes up to an inch or more depending on the cup size—and still keep that puddle bright and shiny. This is a game-changer for welding inside collectors or tight frame rails where a standard nozzle would hit the workpiece before you could see the puddle.
These lenses are built to fit the standard "small" torch bodies (WP-9, WP-20) and the WP-25. Whether you are running an old-school Weldcraft 20 water-cooled torch or a newer Miller W-250, these will fit perfectly. They are designed to handle the heat and current associated with 1/8" tungsten applications. Because the flow is so smooth, you can often turn your regulator down a few CFH, saving money on argon refills over time. Plus, the smoother gas flow helps cool the tungsten more effectively, keeping your point sharp longer.
This pack comes with two lenses, so you aren't left stranded if you accidentally dip one or clog a screen. For welders looking to improve their "walking the cup" technique or simply needing better visibility on precision stainless and chromoly jobs, the 995795S is a must-have upgrade for your torch kit.
