Tig welding tips, questions, equipment, applications, instructions, techniques, tig welding machines, troubleshooting tig welding process
Fellow tiggers I'm looking for a new torch, I need one that has three separate hookups, 1 for power (dinse 25), one for argon, and a switch. Most of the torches I see come with the one piece cable. Could someone direct me to where I can find the type of torch I need. I'd like a 17 style. Thanks guys.

If you have a LWS that can order from CK they list this style power connection - most makes do it so it depends a bit on how much your going to use it against price - if you want a cheapie then you won't go wrong with " Shop River " on Ebay - I've had several items for Tig & plasma from them & always been happy - below is link for a torch though they have many variations in the sort you want - hope this helps.

Glad to help - " Shop River " seems to have most consumables as well - quality of what I've had so far is acceptable - always been happy especially for the price - if your in a production type job then probably go for something up market - but for home use it's fine - their torches are well set out in types ( ie 9 / 17 / 26 etc ) - just remember as well as the power connection there are generally 12 or 25 foot length option - flex or rigid head & regular or Euro style body - plus some pencil types - you should find what you need - if it has a torch switch it will have a Chinese style 2pin plug on the wire - you can re-use your old plug if need be or they do sell the female ( socket ) half of this so you could make it up as an adapter or drill an extra hole in your machine & fit it - hope you find what you need - shipping to me ( UK ) is generally 10 days except for very light items that come airmail in jiffy bags which are faster.
One final question, is there a name for this kind of connection?
