Default Tig torch help please ;)

I have an Aircooler Miller Sync2000. Using a small #9 torch and its on its way out. I wanna upgrade to a slightly larger aircooled torch that can use a #12 gas lense, etc.


What are you all using that have a #12 gas lense/cup

I don't have an air cooled machine, but the next size up is the #17 rated for 150 amps. Have you checked if they have that gas lens available for that torch? btw that thing is like welding with a banana lol

My exact same setup, its the best for gas coverage I have found in all of my playing with different setups. I recommend it to everyone

I used the same setup except I prefer the CK Worldwide flex torch to the weldcraft...much more durable not to mention significantly cheaper.
