TIG Welder Gas Lens

A TIG welder gas lens is a specialized type of collet body that significantly improves the performance of your TIG torch. Inside the gas lens is a series of fine mesh screens that straighten the flow of shielding gas, converting turbulent flow into a smooth, laminar stream. This coherent column of gas provides far superior protection for the weld pool and tungsten electrode, reducing the risk of atmospheric contamination and oxidation.

The benefits of using a gas lens are substantial. The improved gas coverage allows the welder to extend the tungsten electrode further out from the cup (stick-out) without losing shielding. This greatly improves visibility of the arc and allows access into deep joints or tight angles. Gas lenses are particularly beneficial when welding materials sensitive to oxygen, such as stainless steel and titanium, resulting in cleaner, brighter welds with less heat tint.
