10N45 - 10N45 #10 Alumina TIG Cup for 17, 18, 26 Torches (10 Pack)

Reliable 10N45 Alumina Nozzles for TIG Welding

Optimize your TIG welding setup with our high-quality generic 10N45 Alumina Nozzles. Designed to fit the industry-standard 3-series torches—specifically the 17, 18, and 26 models—these nozzles are an essential consumable for any fabrication shop or hobbyist welder. The #10 size features a generous 5/8-inch (approximately 16mm) orifice, which provides excellent shielding gas coverage over the weld pool. This larger diameter is particularly beneficial when welding materials that require extensive gas protection to prevent atmospheric contamination, such as stainless steel or titanium, or when walking the cup on larger pipe joints.

Manufactured from premium alumina ceramic, these cups are engineered to withstand high temperatures and thermal shock. Unlike lower-grade materials, alumina maintains its structural integrity even under the intense heat of AC aluminum welding or heavy-duty DC applications. The material also offers good resistance to impact and splatter adhesion, making post-weld cleanup easier and extending the lifespan of the consumable. These nozzles thread securely onto standard collet bodies, ensuring a tight seal that prevents gas turbulence and promotes a stable arc.

This pack of 10 nozzles ensures you have plenty of spares on hand, minimizing downtime during critical projects. Whether you are performing precision work in the aerospace industry or general repairs in an automotive shop, these 10N45 cups deliver consistent performance. They are fully interchangeable with parts from major brands like Weldcraft, Miller, and CK Worldwide, offering a versatile and economical solution for maintaining your TIG torch.
