Xtrweld 10N23S Stubby Tig Collet 1/16 Inch

Product Description

The XTRWELD 10N23S is a stubby collet designed for TIG welding torches. It accepts a 1/16-inch electrode and fits 17, 18, and 26 series TIG torch bodies. The stubby form factor reduces the overall torch length, improving visibility and maneuverability in tight weld joints. The part is marked directly with the electrode diameter, making identification fast during torch assembly. Licensed welders and pipe welders who work in confined spaces will find the shorter profile useful for positional and overhead work.

This collet is suited for professional TIG welding applications across light fabrication, pipe work, and sheet metal. The 1/16-inch diameter is commonly used for lower-amperage work on thin-gauge stainless, aluminum, and carbon steel. It installs in 17, 18, and 26 series torch bodies, which are among the most widely used air-cooled TIG torch configurations in shop and field settings.

Key Features

• Stubby design shortens torch length for improved access in tight or positional weld joints
• Accepts 1/16-inch tungsten electrode diameter
• Electrode diameter marked on the part for fast identification during assembly
• OEM-quality construction compatible with major torch brands using 17, 18, or 26 series bodies

Compatibility

Designed for use with 17, 18, and 26 series TIG torches. Compatible with all major brands using these torch series configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed welders or qualified welding technicians. Disconnect and de-energize the welding power source before disassembling the torch head. Thread the collet into the torch body by hand until snug, then install the collet body and back cap per the torch manufacturer's assembly sequence. Do not overtighten collet components, as this can deform the collet bore and affect electrode retention.
