45V26 gas lens collet body

The 45V26 Gas Lens Collet Body is a high-quality TIG torch component designed to significantly improve shielding gas coverage during welding. Unlike standard collet bodies, a gas lens system passes the shielding gas through multiple layers of fine stainless-steel mesh, which helps to diffuse and smooth the gas flow for better protection of the weld zone.

This improved laminar gas flow is especially beneficial when working with sensitive materials such as stainless steel, aluminium, and other alloys, where consistent shielding is critical to prevent contamination, oxidation, and poor weld appearance. By evenly distributing gas around the tungsten, arc, and weld pool, the 45V26 gas lens helps deliver cleaner welds, improved arc stability, and better overall results.

The 45V26 gas lens collet body is widely used in professional fabrication, pipe welding, and precision TIG applications where high-quality shielding coverage is essential. Manufactured with performance and durability in mind, it is a dependable choice for welders looking to upgrade their torch setup or replace worn consumable parts.

Compatible with a wide range of TIG torch models, the 45V26 is a versatile component suitable for many standard WP-style torches.
