    Split TIG Collet

    Hold your tungsten electrode in place during TIG welding with these collets. Slide them into a collet body or gas lens, and secure by screwing the back cap onto your torch.
    Split TIG Collet—Split collets are split into two sides. When you tighten the back cap, the sides squeeze together to grip the tungsten. These are the most common collet style, but the split is a weak area where they deform over time.

    TIG Torch Collet Bodies

    Attach TIG torch nozzles to TIG torches with these collet bodies. Holes in the collet body route shielding gas to the nozzle to protect your weld from oxidation and pitting. Use them with a split or wedge collet to hold a tungsten electrode. All collet bodies require a TIG torch insulator.

    Collet bodies for aluminum oxide ceramic and silicon nitride ceramic nozzles have threads for connecting to nozzles. Use an adapter ring (sold separately) to connect quartz glass nozzles to these collet bodies.

    TIG Torch Accessory Kits

    Image of Product. Front orientation. TIG Torch Accessory Kits.
    All the TIG torch accessories you need to get started in one kit, including collets, collet bodies, and nozzles.
    Aluminum Oxide Ceramic Nozzle—Kits with aluminum oxide ceramic nozzles are durable and economical—a good choice for most applications, although they do limit visibility, unlike glass. The nozzles thread directly onto the collet bodies.
    For Narrow Gas Coverage—Narrow nozzles work well with most metals.
