CK Flex Loc

The Flex-Loc™ series torch is a variable-angle torch that locks into any position within a 360-degree rotation. Interchangeable heads allow different size tungsten and head sizes to be quickly and efficiently changed. The patented Flex-Loc™ TIG Torch is available in water-cooled and gas-cooled models. Great for applications requiring a unique angle yet allowing the user a rigid torch. Ergonomically designed to help eliminate fatigue.

Applications: Cup walking on pipe root welds, welds that require a mirror to access weldment, and welds requiring different tungsten sizes.

CK FlexLoc Water Cooled Torch Packages FAQs

Answers to common questions about complete water-cooled TIG torch packages with flexible cables and machine connections.

What do I need to run a water-cooled TIG torch?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

You need a TIG machine with a compatible torch connection, a coolant circulating unit, shielding gas and coolant. A water-cooled setup has more connections than an air-cooled one: the power lead, a gas connection and two water hoses, one carrying coolant to the torch and one returning it.

The power cable is cooled by the returning coolant, so it must never be run dry. Check how your machine and cooler connect and whether the cooler can be powered from the machine, and read the manuals for both before first use.

What should I check before striking an arc with a water-cooled torch?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

With the cooler on and coolant circulating, check the hoses and connections for leaks and that they are tight, before you strike an arc. Check the coolant level, and look at the hoses for cracks, bulging or thin spots. Make sure the hoses are connected the correct way round, as the coolant should reach the torch head first.

Do it at the start of every shift. Never weld with a torch that is leaking or that has no coolant flowing.

What happens if the coolant flow stops or is too low?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

Poor coolant flow is a common cause of torch overheating, and the power cable inside the hose can be damaged quickly if the coolant stops. Blockages, air in the pump, a worn hose or low coolant can all reduce flow even when the cooler seems to be running.

Some coolers or machines have a flow switch that shuts the torch down if flow is inadequate. If the torch gets hot or the cooler pump runs hot, stop welding, find the cause and fix it. Follow the maker's minimum flow figures for your torch and cooler.

Is a coolant leak a safety problem?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

Yes. Water or coolant on the floor near welding equipment is a shock hazard, so fix leaks promptly and wipe up spills before welding. Keep connectors, the machine and the cooler dry, and replace any hose that is cracked, bulging or leaking.

If you find a leak at a torch connection, switch the machine off and isolate it before dealing with it. Where a torch repeatedly leaks or overheats, it should be replaced or repaired by a competent person following the maker's instructions and your risk assessment.
