Xtrweld 45V116 Gas Lens Standard Large 1/16 Inch

Product Description

The XTRWELD 45V116 is a standard large gas lens designed for TIG welding torches in the 17, 18, and 26 series. A gas lens replaces the standard collet body in a TIG torch and uses a layered screen to produce a laminar shielding gas flow, improving arc stability and weld quality on critical joints. This unit fits a 1/16 inch electrode diameter and measures 0.94 inches in width. It is an OEM-quality consumable suited for professional welders and fabricators working in light industrial, maintenance, and field applications.

This gas lens is intended for use with 17, 18, and 26 series TIG torches, which are among the most widely used air-cooled torch platforms in the trade. The laminar gas flow provided by a gas lens is particularly useful when welding in tight joint configurations, at extended electrode stick-out, or with reactive and non-ferrous materials that demand consistent shielding coverage. It is sold individually and is compatible with all major TIG torch brands in the supported series.

Key Features

• Standard large gas lens configuration for 17, 18, and 26 series TIG torches
• Fits 1/16 inch electrode diameter for precise torch assembly
• Electrode diameter marking on the part for quick identification during setup
• OEM-quality construction compatible with all major torch brands in the supported series
• Produces laminar shielding gas flow to improve arc stability and coverage

Compatibility

Compatible with 17, 18, and 26 series TIG torches. Designed as an OEM-style replacement consumable compatible with all major brands producing torches in these series.

Installation Notes

Gas lens installation is performed by licensed welders or qualified fabrication technicians. Power down and disconnect the welding machine before servicing the torch head. The gas lens threads into the torch body in place of the standard collet body — confirm electrode diameter and torch series before installation to ensure a proper fit. Inspect the lens screens for clogging or damage when replacing consumables.
