RX WELD 48PCS TIG Welding Torch Stubby Gas Lens #4#5#6#7#8 Pyrex Glass Cup Kit For WP-17/18/26 (48PCS)

I see some reviews about these not fitting various torches. This works on the weldcraft WP-17 that came with my multimatic 220. Here is more information that may help:There may be issues if the diameter of that locking part of the collet is not checked. This set comes with 3 different size holes. If you happen to have the 1/8" in the torch with 3/32 tungsten you will not be able to tighten down the back cap to get the tungsten to stay in place. I also replaced the front "white teflon ring" with what came in the kit. The kit ring has a better seating surface than if I tried to use the one in the original torch. Use TWO o-rings to hold the cup in place. See the picture. I put a red and green one on so the position stands out. The cup does not wiggle and seems firmly in place when assembled like this. Gas flow seems fine.Next test will be how well it holds up over time.

This is an excellent kit for the WP17 tig torch. Currently using the smallest sized pyrex gas lens and 10cfh. The dual o-rings do an amazing job keeping the pyre lenses in place. Dont try to swap out the gas lens while warm though as the o-rings become alot more flexible and make it quite difficult to accomplish. All in all, this kit is worth it especially if you are a weekend hobby welder or on a small budget. If this review was helpful to you, go ahead and click that like button please.

I have a CK-17 FX torch and wanted some consumables for a inexpensive price. As stated in other reviews the Teflon insulator will not work for CK series torches without modification. However, following the advice of other reviews I trimmed ID of the insulator using a lathe (can also be done in drill chuck).As for the quality and durability it seems adequate for a hobby welder like myself.

Using they for my Lincoln Tig 200, all fittings work great

I bought this set for the alumina cups that I have always used. I really had no idea what the stubby gas collets and pyrex cups were for. After a google search, I decided to give them a try. What a huge difference! You can actually see the weld puddle all the time.I'm a self taught welder that dabbles in welding. I have had no professional training and used to describe my welding as merely creating an opportunity for me to practice my hand grinder skills. (I am really good at that!) I can now get welds that only require a quick wire brush cleanup. I won't be starting any Youtube channel any time soon, but I don't have to pretend that someone else welded it and I am just cleaning them up. ;-)

I have a CK17 torch, and only 1/2 of this kit will work with it. The lens bodies and collets will work, but the normal bodies are for a #9 torch. The teflon insulator rings will not work with my CK17 torch. Overall, there are enough pieces that will work, so I'll end up keeping it, but I'll need to separately order insulating rings, alumina cups and main bodies elsewhere. I guess you get what you pay for.

I ordered a ALPHA TIG 201XD 9/2020 (current model). My welder came with the rotating head 9/17 torch (not the flex head). Everything fit very nice except for the 2 insulator cups. I just reused my insulators and it works fine. The 2 that come in the kit are too small for the large torch head and too big for the small torch. Not a big deal for the price of the kit and other 53 parts fit great! Worth the money. No instructions, but easy to figure out. Make sure you put the o-rings in the correct order (red one goes on first) see pics on the item description,

I'm a home/hobbyist welder and have been trying to increase my skills on aluminum. I was trying to get those nice shiny beads like I see on youtube. My welds were typically a dull gray and sometimes I would see a small amount of soot. I finally figured out that the gas coverage was not great. I increased my flow and got better results. After switching my torch to use this gas lens kit, I am getting better results with nearly 40% less gas flow. I'm pretty happy. I am using the kit with a Miller 220 AC/DC and the W17 torch.

This product has everything included that was shown on the listing. Unfortunately, the case that it ships in is not sufficient to protect the contents from breakage. Many of the ceramic lenses arrived chipped because they were not wrapped individually inside the case.

This kit is ok for light duty work only! Welding aluminum even 1/8” will melt o rings and somehow cause your torch to catch on fire. Not too sure whats going on but for light duty or sheet metal the gas screen and stubby lenses are actually nice. Overall not to happy because i mostly do aluminum and the kit cant handle it

The order that came was 45 pcs set -- and white heat shield would not work or fit on my ck17fx tig torch !

work got for me. but I'm just a beginner 0

The long back cap broke/melted after two weeks.. Nonetheless, the set worked great.
