OVERVIEW

Reliable Performance in Tight Spaces with Weldcraft Lava Nozzles

When you are deep in a weld and the heat starts building up, the last thing you need is your cup cracking. The Weldcraft 796F72 Long Lava Nozzle is the problem-solver you need for those tricky, high-heat TIG applications. Unlike standard pink alumina cups that can shatter when things get too hot in a confined space, this "Lava" nozzle is made from a special ceramic material that handles thermal shock like a champ. It is designed to expand and contract without breaking, making it the perfect choice for welding in corners, inside pipes, or anywhere heat gets trapped and reflected back at your torch.

This #5 nozzle (5/16-inch opening) gives you the focused gas coverage you need for precision work, while its extra length (1-7/8 inches) helps you reach into tight spots that a standard cup just can't touch. It fits perfectly on your favorite 9, 20, or 25 series TIG torches, including Miller's A-125 and W-200 models. Whether you are working on an intricate aerospace part or a custom automotive exhaust, the extended reach allows you to see the puddle clearly and keep your tungsten right where it needs to be.

Stop wasting money on nozzles that pop the moment they get too hot. Switch to the Weldcraft 796F72 and experience the difference that the right material makes. These nozzles are built to last, helping you keep your arc on and your downtime low. Sold in packs of 10, they are an essential addition to any serious TIG welder's kit, ensuring you are always ready for those high-temperature, confined-space jobs that demand the very best in consumable reliability.

FAQ

Lava nozzles are made from a ceramic material that has superior resistance to thermal shock compared to standard Alumina (pink) nozzles. This makes Lava nozzles less likely to crack or break in applications where high heat is reflected back at the cup, such as in confined spaces or corners.

The 796F72 is compatible with 2 Series TIG torches. This includes air-cooled models like the 9 and water-cooled models like the 20, 22, and 25. It also fits Miller equivalents such as the A-125, W-200, W-250, and W-280.

A #5 nozzle has an orifice diameter of 5/16 of an inch (approximately 7.9 mm). The number represents the size in sixteenths of an inch.

A long nozzle, like the 796F72 (1-7/8" length), provides better visibility of the weld puddle and allows the welder to access tighter spaces or deeper joints that a standard length nozzle cannot reach.

Typically, this nozzle threads onto the standard collet body of a 2 Series torch. However, ensure your torch setup includes the standard insulator gasket (like the 598882) designed for 9/20 series torches to prevent electrical shorts.

The Weldcraft 796F72 is commonly sold in packs of 10 to ensure you have replacements on hand, although some retailers may sell them individually. Please check the specific listing quantity.

Yes, the Lava material is suitable for both AC and DC welding processes. Its thermal properties are beneficial for the high heat often associated with AC aluminum welding in tight areas.
