It doesn't come with a torch. You would of had to add one to your order.

For 9 series air-cooled torch or a 20 series water-cooled torches, a standard or large gas lens (commonly called a stubby) provides good gas coverage. This smaller torch profile increases operator comfort by reducing the overall torch weight and allows access on tighter joints.


ok so now what type should i buy and where from, sorry for the questions, im just in a rush to have all of my parts since my welder is in transit and im unfamiliar with some of the intricate details.

My bad, I didn't see that you mentioned that you got the package.


Definitely get a regular gas lens and a couple different cups to go with it. Any welding shop or online place will have listings. Look for a #9 or #20 (they use the same components) torch and order these parts:

Small 53N series Gas Lens Cups (choose your cup size)

Small 45V series Gas Lens (choose your tungsten size)

13N Series Collet (choose your tungsten size)


Those three things will havve you setup for gas lens. GThe problem with cyberweld and most online places is that they make you order so many. Try to find a local welding shop and get the parts there for your #20 torch. That way you can get only one and try out different cup sizes.

Good luck.

Cyberweld lists it like cause they are retarded. The medium and large gas lens on their site are for #17 and the like torches. The "small" gas lens is for #9 and the like torches.

I don't believe that a larger gas lens is available for the #9.
