Is your Air-Cooled TIG torch too hot to handle? It may be time to think about upgrading to a water-cooled system. \u00a0 You’ll be able to use water-cooled torches that run much cooler and allow you to access higher amperages. Think of all the welding possibilities!<\/p>\n

Water-Cooled TIG Torches<\/h2>\n

You may \u00a0think you need to buy a fancy water cooler in order to use a water-cooled TIG torch, but that’s not necessarily true. \u00a0Of course at Arc-Zone we wouldn’t mind if you purchased a welding \u00a0water cooler <\/a>from us–we do carry an extensive line of coolers from manufacturers like \u00a0Binzel and Dynaflux<\/a>. We even carry all the replacement parts <\/a>you’ll need for repairs,\u00a0including the Procon rotary vane pumps<\/a> for welding water coolers.<\/p>\n

Hook Up Kit for Your Water-Cooled TIG Torch<\/h2>\n

Other options for upgrading to a water-cooled TIG torch: \u00a0build your own water cooler or connect directly to your city-supplied water.<\/p>\n

\"hookup<\/a>If you just want to connect to your city-supplied water and run water right to your torch, we have a kit that includes all the connectors <\/a>you’ll need.<\/p>\n

Keep in \u00a0mind you’ll need to maintain a water flow of one quart per minute at a maximum of 45 PSI (or risk blowing out the tiny\u00a0water\u00a0passages inside your TIG torch).<\/p>\n

If you want to build your own water cooler, check out this story we wrote for Practical Welding Today<\/em>, “A Tale of Two Welders.” \u00a0<\/a>Read about how George Bright, a welder in New Mexico, built his own water cooler using his wife’s old turkey roasting pan!<\/p>\n

Water-Cooled TIG Torch Options<\/h2>\n

And don’t forget the TIG Torch! Arc-Zone carries a pretty impressive selection of \u00a0Water-Cooled (and Air-Cooled) TIG welding torches <\/a>from the very best manufacturers: \u00a0CK Worldwide and Miller (Weldcraft).<\/p>\n
