Value Collection 315080030 Tig Torch Nozzle 8mm

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 315080030 is a TIG torch nozzle designed to direct and focus the shielding gas flow around the tungsten electrode during TIG welding operations. With an orifice diameter of 8.00 mm (5/16 inches) and classified as a Size 5 nozzle, it provides consistent gas coverage for clean, stable arcs on a range of base metals. This nozzle is a consumable component that sits at the torch head and must be matched to the correct torch body for proper fit and gas seal. Welding technicians and fabricators who service or stock TIG torches will find this a direct-fit replacement consumable.

This nozzle is rated for use with Torch 9 and Torch 20 TIG torch bodies. These are widely used air-cooled torch configurations found in light-duty to medium-duty fabrication shops, maintenance welding, and field repair environments. The Size 5 designation corresponds to the 5/16-inch orifice opening, which suits general-purpose TIG welding on thinner to medium-gauge material where a moderate gas lens coverage area is appropriate.

Key Features

• 8.00 mm (5/16 inch) orifice opening for consistent shielding gas coverage

• Designed for use with Torch 9 and Torch 20 bodies
• Lightweight consumable at 0.1 pounds for easy handling and field stocking
• Sold individually, allowing single-unit replacement as needed

Compatibility

Designed for use with Torch 9 and Torch 20 TIG torch bodies as specified by the manufacturer.

Installation Notes

TIG torch nozzles are installed and replaced by qualified welders or welding equipment technicians. Before replacing the nozzle, power down the welder and allow the torch to cool completely to prevent burns. Thread or press the nozzle onto the torch collet body according to the torch manufacturer's assembly instructions, ensuring a snug, gas-tight fit. Inspect the collet body and back cap for wear before installing a new nozzle.
