SUMO WP-26 Long Back Cap for TIG Torch

SUMO WP-26 Long Back Cap for TIG Torch
The SUMO WP-26 Long Back Cap is an essential spare part for TIG welding torches (argon arc welding torches). It holds and stabilizes the tungsten electrode firmly in place while sealing the back of the torch head to prevent argon gas leaks. Made from premium-grade Bakelite-blended engineering plastic, it offers excellent resistance to the high heat generated during continuous arc welding without becoming brittle or cracking easily. Designed in a standard long length, it accommodates full-length tungsten electrodes without cutting. It fits standard TIG torch series precisely, including WP-17, WP-18, and WP-26 models.

Features
- High heat-resistant material: Made from heat-resistant plastic blended with Bakelite; will not melt or become brittle and crack easily, even during prolonged, continuous welding operations.
- Prevents argon gas leaks: Comes with a rubber O-ring seal in front of the threads, ensuring a 100% tight seal to prevent argon gas loss.
- Standard threads for easy torch installation: Precision-machined threads allow easy tightening without cross-threading, enabling quick replacement during work.
- Long back cap design: Accommodates standard full-length tungsten electrodes, maximizing tungsten utilization without cutting them short.

Applications
- Ideal as a replacement spare part for TIG (argon) welding torches: WP-17, WP-18 (water-cooled), and WP-26 models.
- Suitable for general metal welding, stainless steel pipe welding, aluminum fabrication, and industrial sheet metal structures.
- Suitable for professional welders, automotive repair workshops, and machinery parts manufacturing plants.
