Features
- Short profile for maneuvering in confined spaces
- Phenolic body construction
- Brass threading for electrode locking
- Pre-installed O-ring for airtight sealing
- Electrical insulation to prevent arc wandering or shorting
- Mechanical pressure application to collet for tungsten retention
