Product Identity

Lincoln Electric K1782-16 PTA-9 TIG Torch is a 12.5 ft air-cooled torch rated at 125 A with a 60% duty cycle. It features a rigid neck, knurled handle for non-slip grip and supports electrode diameters from .020 in to 1/8 in. Designed for light-duty TIG welding tasks in auto body, farm, home and shop settings.

Suitability

Suitable for operators needing a lightweight air-cooled torch for intermittent TIG work at modest amperage. Not suited for high-amperage continuous production welding, applications requiring water cooling or jobs demanding electrode sizes outside the .020 in to 1/8 in range.

Key Specification

The 125 A maximum current at 60% duty cycle determines whether this torch matches the intended welding procedure. Verify that the power source and application stay within this rating before purchase.

Questions about this item

What power source amperage and duty cycle does the PTA-9 torch rated at 125 A and 60 % require?

It is rated for 125 A maximum current at a 60 % duty cycle, so the power source must deliver at least that amperage at the same duty rating.

How do I connect the 12.5 ft torch to my Lincoln machine, and what step is often missed?

Attach the torch connector to the compatible Lincoln K1782 series receptacle, then install the correct collet and collet body for your electrode size before tightening the back cap.

Which consumables will need replacement on the PTA-9 torch over time?

The collet, collet body, nozzle and back cap for electrode diameters from 0.020 in up to 1/8 in are the wear items that require periodic replacement.
