External Mount High-Purity Gas Solenoid Upgrade Kit
Why Upgrade the OEM Solenoid?
The factory gas delivery system in your TIG welding machine is under the machine cover and "out of sight -- out of mind". OEM's use low cost permeable rubber hose with "spring type" hose clamps, and a cheap plastic gas solenoid.
Because it's isolated, it's hard to leak check. Those components are proven to leak shield gas and draw moisture and atmosphere contamination into the TIG torch! Not ideal for precision TIG welding!
