MIG-MAG welding torch WH Tandem W800

water-cooledmanualrobotized

Overview Tandem welding places high demands on the entire welding equipment. The WH W800 is a technically matured, liquid-cooled torch system designed for high-power tandem MIG/MAG applications. Based on the proven WH system and available in several torch geometries, the WH W800 covers a wide range of industrial welding tasks. Three independent cooling circuits ensure stable temperature behaviour under continuous operation.

Advantages

• Simple and fast maintenance
• Compatibility with standard WH cable assemblies
• Quick-action gas nozzle connection; multiple contact tip lengths available
• Optimised for power source technologies from various manufacturers
