Xtrweld 406488 Collet Body Standard 5/32 Inch Tig

Product Description

The XTRWELD 406488 is a standard collet body designed for TIG welding torches in the 17, 18, and 26 series. The collet body secures the collet and electrode inside the torch head, maintaining proper alignment and electrical contact during the welding arc. This part measures 0.39 inches in width and 1.85 inches in height, sized for a 5/32 inch electrode. It is manufactured to OEM quality standards and is marked with the electrode diameter for fast identification during torch assembly or consumable changeovers. TIG welders and fabrication professionals keep these on hand as standard replacement consumables.

This collet body fits 17, 18, and 26 series TIG torches and is compatible with OEM-equivalent consumable setups across major torch brands. It is suited for shop welding, field fabrication, and maintenance environments where 5/32 inch electrodes are in regular use. The part sells individually, making it practical for targeted replacements without purchasing a full consumable kit.
