RIVERWELD TIG Stubby Gas Lens Collet Bodies 17GL 10N Series TIG Glass Cup Clear Quartz Nozzle #4-#12 Assorted Size Kit for SR WP 17 18 26 TIG Welding Torch 33pcs

Exactly as described and promptly shipped. Packaged like is was going to Mars in a dump truck - very well protected! Initially, it didn’t seem the insulator was going to fit my CK17 torch but it snaps on if you squeeze the piss out of it. Insulator ID is about .050” smaller than the stock CK insulator but there’s a lip on it that snaps over the CK head.Stubby lens was a big breakthrough for my TiG learning because it shortened the electrode-end of the torch about 3/4”. Just enough so I could hold the torch body like a pencil and slide my hand on my last, two fingers.Gas lens allowed me to maintain same/better shielding with roughly half the gas flow.

I only wish I could find the isolated sizes for replacement parts instead of buy a whole kit again. I only use 3/32. Nice kit though!

I was skeptical when I purchased this; but, it really works well.The torch seems to be more tolerant of electrode distance increases.The visibility is awesome!!!General overall weld quality is some what better. Probably due to increased visibility.Cheers

2 o-rings will not fit and lens will just fall off avoid this unless you like junk.

I’m a new tig welder and this kit is perfect. Would recommend for all levels. I will buy another one for a friend.

All the items seem to be good quality, especially considering the price. Various sized clear cups are harder to find than straight #10. For that reason I still recommend this kit, it can be made to work. The problem is that the gas lens has only 1 O ring grove. It is properly positioned allowing the O ring to seal against both the insulator and the very back of the glass cup simultaneously. But the slightest bump to the cup unseats it from the precarious seal, usually letting the cup drop and break.The kit includes plenty of extra O rings, but if you put on more than 1 at a time, the cup will not fit.In my opinion, the gas lens needs another O ring groove in the middle of the threaded section.The threads are not used at all with this kit, but they do allow one to use common pink cups if(when) your glass ones break. Pink threaded cups can still be used after this mod provided I remove the 2nd O ring and leave the first in place to seal the insulator.The mod:Chuck the torch side of a gas lens into a drill. Leave the red plastic protective cap on so I don't chowder the threads. Verify that it doesn't wobble and wont pop out. Start with the .040" or whichever is least used size for practice.Chuck a 1/8" ball end mill into a Dremel tool.Start the gas lens spinning in the drill and apply the Dremel tool to the middle of the threaded section where the cups go. The position is not critical as long as there are a couple threads before and a couple after. Start with a light touch so the tool is not moved by the threads. Keep going till there is no thread in the area I am grinding. Apply an O ring to the new groove and see if a cup fits. Keep going a little at a time till the cup will fit snugly. Usual warnings apply. Making or using the mod could result in injury. I am not advocating anyone perform this mod, just describing what I did. It has worked well for me so far.Having 2 O rings in separate grooves seems to work much better than alternatives I've seen with 1 O ring in the middle, or 2 O rings side by side in a wider groove near the insulator. This is an easy feature for manufacturers to add during production, so I expect it will be commonly available soon, but for now it is hard to find, thus DIY only.

For a cheap option this kit nails it.

In retrospect I would’ve purchased the Furick bundle of these types of cups and lenses, but I figured I’d give a cheaper set a try before I spent the money on a product of higher quality. The cups light up, but gas coverage is a bit poor and inconsistent with the clear lens on. I put a slight pre flow on to compensate for it, but it still has some issues. The number 10 is probably the only cup I’ll use, along with my ceramic 8. If you want a cheap go to, I suggest why not, but be aware, your torch may or may not like the setup. 4/5 for the functionality mostly.

Wasted a ton of Argon thinking my machine was set up incorrectly! It was the cups! They couldn’t hold the shielding gas correctly! This item needs to be taking off of here. I’m sorry but they just don’t work!

This kit is very cheap quality. Threads are not matching a quality torch. Poor connectivity after threaded-in a causing unstable arc at the exit of the tungsten. If I could put 0 star, I would

Only allows 1 o-ring. One slight touch on the cup and it falls right off. Bought it for the multiple cup sizes but you will loose them in short time due to the one o-ring. Not worth the money. Look for a better kit.

its been working fine since I purchased it

sehr gutes Preis Leistungsverhältnis, schnelle Lieferung.
