OVERVIEW

Arcair Arcwater II: The Diver's Choice for Cutting & Welding

Equip yourself with the Arcair Arcwater II Torch, the industry standard for underwater metalworking. Identified by part number 14-050-127, this torch is meticulously crafted to serve the needs of professional welder-divers. It is uniquely capable of performing both underwater cutting and underwater welding, streamlining your gear setup and allowing for rapid transitions between tasks. This model includes a pre-attached 10-foot (3-meter) power cable, providing a durable and secure connection to your power source immediately upon deployment.

Ergonomic Design for Deep Water

Maneuverability is critical when you are submerged. The Arcwater II features an angled head and a contoured grip that fits naturally in a gloved hand, offering superior control and reducing wrist strain during overhead or vertical operations. The torch utilizes a positive-grip collet design that firmly holds the electrode in place, preventing slippage even when applying pressure during cutting. Changing consumables is fast and intuitive, a crucial feature when bottom time is limited. The bright orange color of the handle also aids in visibility in murky water conditions.

Built to Last

The marine environment is notoriously harsh on tools. The Arcwater II is constructed from high-strength, impact-resistant materials that are impervious to saltwater corrosion. All metal components are designed to resist electrolysis and oxidation. The 10-foot cable assembly is reinforced to withstand abrasion and tugging, common hazards in salvage environments. It connects seamlessly to standard DC welding power sources configured for underwater use.

Applications and Compatibility

This torch is compatible with most standard underwater cutting rods and welding electrodes. It excels in applications such as:

  • Severing steel pilings and sheet piles
  • Cutting through ship hulls and propellers
  • Wet welding for structural repairs
  • Anode installation and replacement

When you buy from Welders Supply, you get the assurance of genuine Arcair quality. The Arcwater II with its 10ft cable is a complete, ready-to-dive solution for professionals who demand the best in underwater thermal processing equipment.

FAQ

The Arcair Arcwater II is designed for underwater applications, capable of performing both oxygen-arc cutting and shielded metal arc welding.

Yes, this specific model (14050127) includes a 10-foot (3-meter) heavy-duty power cable attached to the torch.

Absolutely. It is constructed with high-impact, non-conductive materials specifically engineered to resist saltwater corrosion and protect the diver.

It accepts standard underwater cutting and welding electrodes. The collet design ensures a secure fit for various rod diameters used in marine work.

While technically possible, it is specifically optimized for underwater use. Topside torches are generally lighter and air-cooled, whereas this is designed for the water environment.

After every dive, the torch should be thoroughly rinsed with fresh water to remove salt and debris. Periodically check the O-rings and cable connections for wear.

The screw-down collet design provides a positive grip on the electrode, preventing it from slipping during the physical stress of cutting or welding underwater.

Yes, the handle is fully insulated and made of high-impact plastic to ensure electrical safety for the diver.
