So Jody did a video talking about #9 and #20 and so forth size tig torches.
My dynasty 280dx came with a weldcraft W-280 (liquid cooled) - how do I figure out what "number" size class it is?
(For such purposes as ordering gas lenses, etc)

Miller has bought the Weldcraft brand, you can view the accessories for your torch here

Yes, that torch uses 9/20 series consumables. Or 2 series CK parts.

OK, so 13N and #9/#20 and CK series 2 are all expected to interchange?
(Three different names for the same sizes of threads, etc.?)
If so, thank you very much for that explanation.

"13N" refers to the line of consumables
"#9/#20/CK 2-series" refer to the size of the torch itself, but the distinction is that a #9 is gas-cooled, and #20 even though the same size, uses water-cooling for higher amperage usage. The CK 2-series also comes in gas-cooled and water cooled.
A picture is worth a thousand words
