Important: Select the configuration that matches the components you need. The CK-150 FX body-only configuration does not include a handle or power cable. The complete CK-1512NSF FX and CK-1525NSF FX packages include the CK-150H handle and two-piece SuperFlex™ cable.
Flexible Head for Better Joint Access
The flexible 70° head allows the operator to adjust the torch angle to better match the workpiece and welding position. This makes the CK-150 FX especially useful when a standard rigid torch is difficult to position.
- Reach around tubing, fixtures, and other obstructions
- Improve access to confined weld joints
- Adjust the torch angle for different welding positions
- Improve visibility of the tungsten and weld puddle
- Reduce awkward hand and wrist positioning
Two-Piece SuperFlex™ Cable
The complete NSF torch packages use a two-piece cable configuration. This style keeps the gas and welding power connections separate at the welding machine.
Check your welding machine connections before ordering to make sure the two-piece cable configuration matches your equipment.
