OVERVIEW

Weldcraft 53N87L Long Alumina Gas Lens Nozzle #12

The Weldcraft 53N87L is a premium-grade Alumina TIG Gas Lens Nozzle designed to provide superior performance in demanding welding environments. Engineered with a #12 orifice (3/4 inch), this nozzle is specifically optimized for use with gas lens collet bodies, ensuring a laminar gas flow that improves weld quality by reducing turbulence and oxidation. The nozzle is manufactured from high-quality Alumina ceramic, a material chosen for its exceptional thermal conductivity, high impact resistance, and ability to withstand extreme heat without cracking or deforming.

One of the defining features of the 53N87L is its "Long" configuration. This extended design is critical for industrial applications where joint accessibility is limited. By extending the reach of the torch front end, operators can weld in deep grooves, corners, or obstructed areas while maintaining the necessary shielding gas coverage. Despite its length, the ceramic composition maintains structural integrity and resists the buildup of spatter, reducing downtime for cleaning and replacement.

This nozzle is highly versatile regarding compatibility. It is designed to fit a wide range of industry-standard TIG torches, including the 9, 17, 18, 20, 26, and 27 series. This cross-compatibility makes it an essential inventory item for fabrication shops utilizing air-cooled and water-cooled torches alike. Whether working on precision aerospace components or heavy industrial piping, the Weldcraft 53N87L delivers the consistency and durability required for professional TIG welding.

FAQ

The 53N87L fits 9, 17, 18, 20, 26, and 27 series TIG torches equipped with the appropriate gas lens collet body.

This is a #12 nozzle, which corresponds to a 3/4 inch (approximately 19mm) inside diameter.

This nozzle is designed specifically for use with gas lens collet bodies. It will not fit standard collet bodies.

It is made from Alumina ceramic, known for its high impact resistance and thermal conductivity.

A long nozzle allows you to extend the tungsten further and reach into tight spaces or corners where a standard short nozzle would be obstructed.

This product is sold as a single unit (1 per package).

Yes, when used with a gas lens, the large #12 opening provides a wide umbrella of shielding gas, which is excellent for materials like stainless steel and titanium.
