13C2M - Weldcraft 2.0mm TIG Collet for Series 2 Torches

Precision TIG Welding with Weldcraft 13C2M

The Weldcraft 13C2M Collet is a specialized TIG welding consumable designed to securely hold 2.0mm tungsten electrodes. Manufactured by Weldcraft (a Miller Electric brand), this collet is engineered to meet the high demands of professional fabrication, aerospace, and industrial maintenance applications. Proper collet sizing is critical for maintaining a stable arc; using this dedicated 2.0mm component ensures that your electrode is centered and gripped firmly, preventing the slippage and vibration that can lead to weld defects.

Constructed from a high-quality copper alloy, the 13C2M collet offers excellent thermal and electrical conductivity. This efficient energy transfer helps maintain a consistent arc characteristic, which is vital for precision work on thin materials or when aesthetic appearance is paramount. The copper material also aids in heat dissipation, pulling heat away from the tungsten and the torch head to prolong the lifespan of your consumables and torch body.

This collet is typically compatible with Series 2 TIG torches, including the popular air-cooled WP-9 and water-cooled WP-20 and WP-25 models. It serves as the internal clamping mechanism that tightens around the tungsten when the back cap is screwed down. By choosing genuine Weldcraft parts, operators ensure tight manufacturing tolerances that generic replacements often lack. Whether you are welding stainless steel, aluminum, or exotic alloys, the reliability of your torch setup starts with the quality of your collet.

Key Technical Benefits

• Exact Sizing: specifically machined for 2.0mm metric tungsten, eliminating the play found in mismatched inch-standard collets.
• Enhanced Conductivity: Premium copper alloy reduces resistance and heating at the contact point.
• Durability: Resists deformation under thermal stress better than economy alternatives.
