K1622-1 - Lincoln Electric Twist Mate Adapter for PTA-9/17 Torches

Connect Your TIG Torch with Confidence

The Lincoln Electric K1622-1 Twist Mate TIG Torch Adapter is an essential accessory for welders looking to streamline their setup. Designed specifically to bridge the gap between your torch and your power source, this adapter allows you to connect standard PTA-9 and PTA-17 air-cooled TIG torches to Lincoln Electric welding machines equipped with Twist Mate receptacles. Whether you are upgrading your torch or setting up a new machine, this adapter ensures a secure and conductive link.

One of the standout features of this adapter is its gas-through design. Traditional setups often require clumsy external gas lines that can get tangled or damaged. The K1622-1 integrates the gas flow directly through the connector, utilizing the 35mm DINSE style receptacle found on many modern welders, such as the Square Wave TIG 275. This results in a cleaner work environment with fewer cables to manage, allowing you to focus entirely on your weld puddle.

Durability and reliability are at the core of Lincoln Electric products. This adapter is built to handle the rigors of daily shop use, providing a solid mechanical and electrical connection that won't overheat under normal loads. It is rated for up to 150 Amps, making it perfectly matched for the capacity of PTA-9 and PTA-17 torches. Installation is quick and tool-free, letting you swap torches or break down your rig for transport in seconds.
