PX-TRK-1 Thread Repair Kit (Old Part Number A-TRK-1)
Chase damaged or galled TIG torch body threads on 2-series (9, 20, 24, CS310) with (5/16" x 24) and 3-Series (17, 18, 26, CS300, CS410) with (3/8" x 32) pitch threads.
Threads | TIG Torch Examples |
---|---|
5/16"x24 | 2-Series, WP-20, WP-9, CS310 |
3/8"x32 | 3-Series, WP-17, WP-18, WP-26 |
NOTE: The 3/8" x 32 tap is not a common hardware store item, and is only avalible at a hardcore machine tool supplier.
These tap kits are a handy tool to have as the threads in your TIG torch body are exposed to dissimilar metals, (copper collet bodies, brass back caps) heat and load pressure which causes excessive thread wear. By retapping the threads as part of your periodic maintenance, you can greatly improve the life of your torch saving you time and money!
