Monster #12 Gas Lens Kit: 17, 18, 26 & 3 Series Arc-Zone

Monster #12 Gas Lens Kit: 17, 18, 26 & 3 Series

Monster12™ Nozzle & Gas Lens Kit. #12 = 3/4″ (19.05mm) Gas Orifice x 1″ (25.4mm) Long. Engineered to deliver a coherent stream of shielding gas for improved weld-quality and consistency.  

If you’re welding exotic materials such as Titanium, Inconel, Hastelloy, Monel, Stainless Steel, Chromoly, Docol R8, etc., then these cups may be exactly what you need to improve gas coverage, arc stability, tungsten stick-out, and visibility. Monster™ Nozzles are used by top metal fabricators worldwide!

Kit Includes:

Note: To ensure optimal performance all Monster™ nozzle kits are built with Arc-Zone’s Performance Proven™ TIG torch parts.

• Monster12™ nozzles are made of durable, non-reactive ZTA (Zirconia Toughened Alumina) ceramic with 316L stainless steel gas diffuser installed
• Thread-on design securely seals to Teflon heat shield, No o-rings, No gas leaks, No high-freq arc-outs, No drama
• Flow-tested Gas Lens Collet Body
• Leak-tested Medium Back Cap
• Leak-tested Short Back Cap
• Heavy-Duty Wedge Collet
• High Heat Glass Filled Teflon Insulator
  ***TIG Torch shown is Not Included and Sold Separately***

Monster™ Cup Best Practices, Set-Up Tips, Do’s & Don’ts!

• The Monster™ Cup works best with Arc-Zone’s high-quality gas lens collet bodies
• The Monster™ Cup is designed for Argon flow rates between 15-30 CFH (cubic feet hour)
• Do Not Exceed 175 amps for extended periods of time!
• The Monster™ Cup is Not designed for welding with AC current!
• Minimum tungsten stickout of 3/4″ (19mm) — Shorter stickout may result in damage to the screen stack
• Use a medium or short back cap ONLY. (Long back caps are known to trap atmosphere in the top of the cap)
• Do not adjust the positioning, or modify the Screen Stack in any way

Monster™ nozzles are designed for precision TIG welding applications where increased shield gas coverage and tungsten stickout are needed. They are not designed for heavy-industrial pipe welding applications. 

Arc-Zone does not make any claims or guarantees of weld-quality improvements, or level of shield gas coverage. Results may vary, due to: weld station set-up, material preparation, gas quality, gas flow rates, flow meter type, gas hose material, welding machine, TIG torch, operator’s torch handling technique, etc.

Compatible with popular TIG torch models including: A150 (WP-17), W350 (WP-18), A200 (WP-26), W400 (CS410) and CK 3 Series TIG torches.
