so i worked hard and saved up to get a nice welder and finally got a syncrowave 200 (with non-cooled torch)

well yesterday i was welding with it (for like the 3rd time) and the torch breaks off right where the handle attaches to the tip part.

anyways im trying to find a replacement and dont know where to look, because since i have to replace it i would love to add a watercooled torch to it but gotta do it on the cheap.


any help would be much appreciated.

 

Yeah, those weldcraft torches that come w/ those machines are garbage. Go to any of your local welding suppliers and pick up a new torch head, their typically around $50-55.

You'd need to add a water cooler to go watercooled torch which isnt gonna be "on the cheap."

 

yeah i have been reading and it looks like the cooler part is cheap to build if you DIY... the expensive part is the torch.

looks like 150-300 bucks for a water cooled torch..
