Furick 2.4MM TIG Cup Kit For WP9 & 20 Size Torches

All New 3/32" 2.4MM only Cup kit for the 9/20 torch Why use a ceramic cup from Furick? Ceramic cups can be used to replace standard collet heads and improve the spread of gas when welding stainless steel, titanium or nickel-chromium. This improves the shield around the weld pool. These Furick cups allow for precision gas coverage around your weld. The mesh in the cup reduces any potential turbulence and weld contamination. All of this means tighter precision welds and an easier line of vision as the tungsten can stick out further. What types of ceramic cup do Furick offer? We stock a wide range of shapes and sizes from Furick; these include the 'normal' collect body and range up to large gas lens collet bodies. These usually come in a 'porcine pink' colour but can also be white. What are the advantages of using ceramic cups? Durability is a key factor- in comparison to glass cups, the durability of ceramic cups is much higher - Ceramic cups have better crack resistance. The cost of ceramic cups is much less than glass cups; the reliability of the gas flow and less turbulence means they are worth the investment. Benefits of different collet options Stubby - These collets are shorter, which can be used with the shorter stubby gas lens or the wide gas lenses which have the diffusers in. Normal - The standard collet is a longer collet which fits usual gas lenses. Wedge - These collets have an angled end with no slots on the sides - this increases the lifetime of the collet as they are less likely to become deformed or twisted if overtightened. These collets have a chamfer on the end, which wedges the tungsten to one side to prevent any movement. These have better electrical contact with less resistance and require less heat.

CK Worldwide CK Gas Lens 2 Series For CK9 & CK20 (WP9 & WP20)

CK 2 Series Standard Gas Lens CK9 (WP9)  These gas lenses are for improving the gas coverage over standard collet bodies, these are ideal for allowing a longer tungsten to stick out, these fit all standard WP9 and WP20 torches. These gas lenses range in size from 0.5mm up to 3.2mm. These are used in conjunction with gas cups such as ceramic or glass cups. The glass lenses allow you to attach a wider range of cups to your welding arsenal. If you regularly weld stainless steel or titanium materials which require a wider spread of gas coverage, gas lenses are ideal as they provide a consistent non-turbulent gas flow.  Please note- if you require packs please order in quantities of 10.    Why are gas lenses better than standard collet bodies? Collet bodies are standard consumables used when TIG welding, the purpose of these parts are to hold electrodes in place and also allow the gas shield to surround the weld pool. The plume of gas over the weld pool comes through the special holes at the end of the collet body, the gas is filtered out but it does not have any specific direction just out of the torch- the shape of the cup aims the gas over the weld pool but it can result in uneven pockets in the gas as it is pushed from the torch. A gas lens can be used as a replacement to the collet body (not the collet though), it also holds the collet in place and evenly distributes the gas over the weld area. Gas lenses have a mesh screen used as a diffuser which distributes the gas in a laminar pattern over the weld area which allows for less turbulence and a better overall weld. A gas lens allows for increased gas coverage and means the tungsten can stick out further. A further benefit of using a gas lens is that we can save gas usage because it is more efficient and more effective. For example a regular collet body with a number 8 cup will use around 10 litres of gas per minute flow rate whereas the gas lens with the same number 8 cup would have a flow rate of roughly 5 litres per minute. This makes it a more efficient and cheaper method of gas shielding.  You may also weld at different angles as the flow is better, wider and more consistent. The inner mesh of the lens is also replaceable in case of contamination.
