Xtrweld 53N87L Long Alumina Cup Size 12 Tig Torch

Product Description

The XTRWELD 53N87L is a size 12 long alumina cup designed for use with large gas lens setups on TIG welding torches. The cup measures 0.75 inches in diameter and is manufactured from alumina ceramic, a material chosen for its heat resistance and electrical insulation properties. It is a nozzle-style consumable that directs shielding gas flow around the tungsten electrode, protecting the weld zone from atmospheric contamination. Licensed welders and pipe fitters working with GTAW processes install and replace these cups during routine torch maintenance or when switching between application setups.

This cup is suited for residential and commercial welding applications where a long cup profile and large gas lens configuration are required. The long cup extends shielding gas coverage further down the electrode, which is beneficial for out-of-position welds, tight joint access, and applications demanding a wider laminar gas flow pattern. It fits 17, 18, and 26 series TIG torches and is intended for professional welders and service technicians performing GTAW work on a variety of base metals.

Key Features

• Size 12 long cup profile for extended shielding gas coverage
• 0.75 inch diameter alumina ceramic construction for heat resistance
• Compatible with large gas lens torch bodies on 17, 18, and 26 series torches
• Nozzle size marked on cup for quick identification during setup
• OEM-quality fit compatible with all major TIG torch brands

Compatibility

Designed for use with large gas lens configurations on 17, 18, and 26 series TIG welding torches. Compatible with all major brands of TIG torch consumables in the same series.

Installation Notes

Welders and pipefitters install TIG nozzle cups as part of standard torch consumable maintenance. Power down and disconnect the torch from the power source before changing any consumable. Hand-tighten the cup onto the gas lens body to avoid cracking the alumina ceramic — do not use tools to force the cup into position. Inspect the gas lens collet body for wear or debris before installing a replacement cup.
