Great torch for the price. Only thing i had to do was add some tape under the handle because the torch would rotate inside the handle.

I usually wait before I review so I’ve put in a lot of hours on this little guy and it’s taken it well. Recommended.

Got this to replace the 17 size torch that came with my machine, it was just way too gigantic for the size work i do. Didnt expect this little sucker to make such a difference, but the weight difference was huge so its easier to keep it steady, the grip is nice and slim, and the flexible head is just awesome to use, makes it really easy to bend the head around into just the right angle to get a comfy position going. Make the torch do the flexing, save your wristTwo slight downsides, though its almost unfair to call them downsides. First, all you get is the torch, no collets or end caps. Not really a strike against the torch, especially at this price, im just putting that here so people dont make the same mistake i did and forget to order consumables. Second, it seems like the flex is actually done by bending the pipe running through the torch head. Could be wrong, but im im correct about that i worry about long-term reliability. Copper and copper alloys work-harden as theyre flexed, eventually itll crack and cause a leak or connection failure. Again, for $15 im sure not going to complain, if it lasts me 6 months of hobby use ill have got more than my moneys worth, and if i was really worried about it dying in a critical moment, id just order a second one to have on-hand

Unglaublich, habe von CK bereits so eine für über 100€ bezahlt, die hier ist mindestens so gut!

I weld pipe for a living. I try to hold onto the torch gently while walking the cup but the neck on this torch bends too easily. I would recommend a Weldtec or CK brand before this one.

Nothing glitzy about this torch... came in a zip lock bag. But I didn’t make this purchase because of marketing.I bought it because I sent my shop welder in for repairs and the rental I got came with an air cooled 17 style torch with a gas valve. I’m used to a water cooled 20 style and it’s much smaller... same size as this wp-19f. I thought for $11 it should get me through the few weeks I’ll have the rental machine.I got to work and screwed it on to the TIG lead and was striking an arc a minute later. I put it through it’s paces for about 30 minutes... running some beads on scraps in the shop like 20 gauge stainless sheet, 1/4” steel angle, and even put 145 amps through it running a few beads on some aluminum. Stable arc and didn’t get too warm.The only thing I could maybe find wrong with it is the flex neck is a little soft. It bends really easy and doesn’t feel like it will last too long. Still not enough for me to ding it a star.

After a year of fairly heavy (for a hobbyist) use, it's held up well and no complaints. Paired this with a CK Superflex hose and it was a huge improvement over the stock 17-size torch included with my machine. If you're not running a high amperage, the 9 series a lot more maneuverable, even more so with the flex head.

As good as ANYTHING CK makes and at a fraction of the cost.These torches work for what they are designed for:45-105 AMPS for about 45-1:00 on the arc.They are air cooled people- folks love to do the "it gets too hot" complaint all the time when they try to build race frames with a lift arc buzz box.These are perfect torches for 10 bucks and at this price I buy 5 at a time

I bought a few of these to keep as back up's just in case I needed them. Considering how inexpensive they were, I have been thoroughly impressed. They are completely compatible with all of CK or weld craft torches, all my Gas lenses and such fit perfectly. Had it up to 150 amps with no problems. The only down side is they took a month to get, but like I said I was getting them for spares so, that wasn't a big issue for me.
