Esab 10N29 Tig Torch Collet Body 0.5mm HW-17 HW-18 HW-26

Product Description

The ESAB 10N29 is a 0.5mm collet body designed for TIG welding torches. The collet body secures the tungsten electrode inside the torch head, maintaining proper alignment and electrical contact during the welding arc. It is a precision-fit consumable component that must match both the torch series and the tungsten diameter. Licensed welders and HVAC fabricators working with light-gauge or precision TIG applications rely on correct collet body sizing to maintain arc stability and torch integrity. The 10N29 is the industry-standard part number for this 0.5mm size.

This collet body is intended for use in professional TIG welding applications requiring a 0.5mm tungsten electrode. It fits the HW-17, HW-18, and HW-26 torch series, which are widely used in both shop and field welding environments across fabrication, mechanical, and HVAC piping trades. The small 0.5mm diameter makes it suitable for fine, detailed welds on thin materials where precise arc control is critical.

Compatibility

Designed for use with HW-17, HW-18, and HW-26 TIG torch collet body configurations requiring a 0.5mm tungsten electrode size.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified welders or TIG torch service technicians. Before replacing the collet body, disconnect the torch from the power source and allow all components to cool completely. Insert the collet body into the torch head and ensure the tungsten seats fully before tightening the back cap. Follow the torch manufacturer's assembly sequence to avoid cross-threading or damage to the collet seat.
