CK Worldwide® FlexLoc™ 130 Amp Air-Cooled TIG Torch (Choose Options From Above)

Compact air-cooled TIG performance with 360° variable-angle head positioning.
The CK Worldwide® FlexLoc™ 130 is a lightweight 130 Amp air-cooled TIG torch designed for welders who need greater flexibility when working around tubing, fixtures, corners, and restricted weld joints. The FlexLoc™ design provides 360° variable-angle head positioning, allowing you to adjust the torch to the work instead of forcing your hand into an awkward welding position.

Using compact 2 Series TIG consumables, the FlexLoc™ 130 provides a small front-end profile for precision welding and tight-access applications while maintaining a 130 Amp rating at 100% duty cycle.

  • I am a really big fan of this torch. the head…

    I am a really big fan of this torch. the head swivels 360 degrees and all the parts are replaceable. You get all the benefits of a flex head torch with a much longer lifespan. the 9 and 17 heads are also swappable which makes this torch quite versatile. The super flex cable is very pliable and bends easily, which makes handling the torch much easier. I've been using this torch at the home shop for quite some time now on all sorts of projects, and it's still going strong. I also use the water cooled version at work, and they work like a dream as well, and barely heat up at all.

    My school introduced me to the rotating head torch. It is great for learning because you can welding at different angles.
