A gas lens improves gas flow in TIG welding torches, giving better weld quality and control. It fits many torch models like WP-17, WP-18, and WP-26.
TIG welding needs steady gas coverage to protect the weld from air. A gas lens helps by spreading the shielding gas evenly around the weld area. This reduces contamination and creates cleaner, stronger welds. Many welders use gas lens kits that include collet bodies, glass cups, and nozzles.
These parts fit popular TIG torch types such as YESWELDER, RIVERWELD, and ARCCAPTAIN. Choosing the right gas lens size and type improves stability and weld appearance. It also resists heat and corrosion for long-lasting use. Whether welding thin or thick metal, a gas lens helps deliver precise and consistent results every time.
