WELDING TORCHES

Parker TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) torches are essential tools used in TIG welding, also known as Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW). This type of welding process is known for its precision and high-quality welds, making TIG torches crucial for applications requiring meticulous workmanship. Here's a detailed description of Parker TIG torches:

Key Features:
Precision Welding: Parker TIG torches are designed for precise control over the welding process, allowing for accurate welds on thin and delicate materials. This is essential for applications where weld quality and appearance are critical.

Ergonomics: These torches typically feature ergonomic designs, including lightweight construction and comfortable grips, making them easy to handle and reducing operator fatigue during prolonged use.

Cooling Systems: Many Parker TIG torches come with efficient cooling systems, such as air or water cooling, to prevent overheating and extend the torch’s lifespan. This is particularly important for high-amperage applications.

Flexible Head Options: Parker TIG torches often offer flexible or adjustable heads to provide better access to tight or awkward welding positions. This flexibility allows welders to perform precise welds in challenging environments.

Durability: Constructed from high-quality materials, Parker TIG torches are built to withstand the demands of rigorous welding tasks, ensuring long-term reliability and performance.

Replaceable Consumables: They are designed with replaceable parts such as collets, collet bodies, gas lenses, and nozzles. This modularity makes maintenance straightforward and cost-effective, as worn-out parts can be easily replaced.

High-Frequency (HF) Start: Many Parker TIG torches support HF start, which allows for non-contact arc initiation. This reduces tungsten contamination and improves arc stability, resulting in cleaner welds.

Amperage Control: Some models include built-in amperage control, allowing welders to adjust the welding current directly from the torch. This feature enhances convenience and control during the welding process.

Applications:
Parker TIG torches are used in various applications, including:

Aerospace: For welding high-precision components.
Automotive: In manufacturing and repairing vehicles.
Fabrication: For creating detailed metal structures and parts.
Artistic Welding: In sculpture and metal art where fine control is crucial.
Pipe and Tube Welding: For producing high-quality, leak-free joints.
Performance:
Parker TIG torches are known for their reliable performance, providing stable arcs and excellent control over the welding process. This ensures high-quality, aesthetically pleasing welds with minimal distortion and spatter, making them suitable for both novice and experienced welders.

Summary:
Parker TIG torches are indispensable tools for precision welding tasks, offering durability, comfort, and advanced features to enhance performance. With their ability to deliver high-quality welds and their adaptability to various welding conditions, they are widely used in industries requiring meticulous workmanship and reliability.

wire types

which to choose?

309
used to weld base metals of similar composition in wrought or cast form.
308
308 welding rods are primarily used for welding austenitic stainless steel types, such as 301, 302, 304, 308, 316, and 347.
316
This grade is most commonly found in food related applications
4043
4043 gives more weld penetration than 5356, but produces welds with less ductility than those made using 5356
5356
5356 is a very good all-purpose wire. It is the most widely used of all aluminium filler metals.
A18
Copper coated, double deoxidised mild steel MIG wire for welding unalloyed and low-alloyed mild and medium tensile steels
MULTI PROCESS
Suitable for MIG/MAG, MMA welding, TIG welding and gouging
JOB PRESETS
Individually configurable programmes for each welding task (JOB).
