The cable is more efficient because there is better cooling capacity (more water around the conductor lead) and a larger conductor lead for improved energy transfer to the TIG torch.<\/p>\n<p>The CK 230 TIG torch is similar in performance to other manufacturers, but much more affordable. \u00a0AND the best part is if you get your torch as part of an Arc-Zone PRO torch package during in the month of February it comes with a 10% discount attached.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.arc-zone.com\/azc-scip\/large\/CK-230FX-PRO_Flexible_CK_TIG_Torch_Package4_LRG.jpg\" alt=\"The Arc-Zone TIG torch PRO package extras\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" \/>Arc-Zone&#8217;s PRO packages are &#8220;weld-ready&#8221; right out of the box. \u00a0The TIG torch comes with 3\/32&#8243; front end parts&#8211; with the gas lens set up and precision ground (at the most universal\u00a022 degree angle) non-radioactive, hybrid tungsten electrode \u00a0<em><strong>installed<\/strong><\/em>! \u00a0 You can select your cable length: \u00a012.5&#8242; or 25&#8242; and we not only include a cable cover, we install that too! \u00a0And to top it off, your PRO package will include a spare alumina nozzle, a TIG calculator, and a shield gas flow tester so you&#8217;ll always know your flow at the TIG torch head!<\/p>\n<p>And our signature bag of M&amp;Ms as always.<\/p>\n<p>Here are your options:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arc-zone.com\/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=2300&amp;products_id=10126\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Flex Head CK-230 TIG torch PRO package<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arc-zone.com\/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=2300&amp;products_id=10125\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Flex Head (with a gas valve) CK-230 TIG torch PRO package\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arc-zone.com\/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=2300&amp;products_id=10124\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rigid (at a 70 degree angle) Head CK-230 TIG torch PRO package\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arc-zone.com\/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=2300&amp;products_id=10127\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rigid (at a 70 degree angle) Head (with a gas valve) CK-230 TIG torch PRO package\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Get your order in today, and\/ or give our customer care folks a call at 760-931-1500 (world wide).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The small but MIGHTY TIG Torch for demanding TIG welding jobs<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":8560,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[26,28,38],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6594","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tig-welding","category-tungsten-electrodes","category-welding-industry-news","entry","fw-tab-6 fw-tabr-4"],"aioseo_notices":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
