WP-26V TIG Torch Argon Torch Dubai UAE
WP-26V TIG Torch (Argon Torch) with Gas Valve
General-purpose 200A air-cooled TIG welding torch with built-in manual gas valve. Engineered for medium to heavy gauge TIG welding across fabrication, pipeline, petrochemical, and maintenance applications throughout the Middle East and Africa.
Product Overview
What It Is
The WP-26V is a 200-amp air-cooled TIG welding torch (also known as an argon torch) with a built-in manual gas valve. Part of the WP-26 series, the "V" designation indicates the integral gas valve, which provides direct on/off control of argon or argon-mix shielding gas at the torch body β without relying on the welder's internal gas solenoid. Uses standard 10N series consumables throughout.
Who Uses It
Commonly specified by welding engineers, pipeline contractors, fabrication workshops, maintenance teams, and offshore welding crews. Suitable for procurement teams sourcing TIG welding equipment across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, Iraq, Egypt, Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa, Ghana, Tanzania and Uganda. Ideal for both site-based and workshop TIG welding operations.
Where It Is Used
Designed for structural fabrication, pipe welding, petrochemical plant maintenance, food and beverage equipment welding, aerospace component fabrication, shipboard installation, and general maintenance and repair. The manual gas valve makes it particularly suitable for field welding applications where the torch connects directly to a gas regulator β common in pipeline and site welding across MENA and Africa.

Key Features & Benefits
| Feature | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Built-In Manual Gas Valve | Enables direct shielding gas control at the torch β essential for TIG welders without a built-in gas solenoid and for field applications where the torch connects directly to a flowmeter or regulator |
| 200A / 60% Duty Cycle | Suitable for medium to heavy gauge TIG welding β handles sustained production welding on structural steel, stainless, aluminium and pipe in fabrication shops and field sites |
| Air-Cooled Design | No water cooling system required β simpler setup, lower maintenance, and reduced equipment cost for the majority of industrial TIG welding applications |
| Rigid 70Β° Head | Optimum torch-to-weld-joint angle for flat, horizontal, and positional welding β the most widely used TIG torch configuration in pipework and structural fabrication |
| 10N Series Consumables | One of the most widely available TIG torch consumable standards β collets, cups, and bodies are easily sourced across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and throughout the MENA and Africa regions |
| EPDM Rubber Power Cable | High flexibility and heat resistance β maintains cable flexibility in hot ambient conditions common on construction and industrial sites across the Gulf and Africa |
| Ribbed Ergonomic Handle | Reduces operator hand fatigue during extended TIG welding operations β important for productivity on pipeline and offshore fabrication projects |
| Nylon Zipper Cable Cover | Protects the power cable from cuts, weld spatter, and abrasion β extends torch service life on active construction and fabrication sites |
| Dinse 35-50mm Adapter | Compatible with Miller, Lincoln, ESAB, and most mainstream TIG welders on the market β reduces compatibility concerns during procurement for multi-brand welding fleets |
