  • Product typeTools
  • Air-cooled design simplifies setup and maintenance
  • 150 A maximum current handles demanding fabrication tasks
  • 60 % duty cycle supports extended welding sessions
  • 02 in to 1/8 in electrode range covers fine to heavy work
  • Built-in gas valve gives direct flow control at the torch

Miller WP-R17FV Torch Body

The Miller WP-R17FV is an air-cooled TIG torch body rated for a maximum current of 150 A with a 60 percent duty cycle. It accepts electrode diameters ranging from 0.02 in up to 1/8 in and includes a built-in gas valve. The torch suits aerospace, fabrication, food and beverage, maintenance, metal art, petrochemical and shipboard repair work.

Suited for precision TIG tasks needing gas-valve

Welders who require a built-in gas valve for direct flow control at the torch will benefit from this design. It is not intended for applications that demand a higher amperage rating or a liquid-cooled torch body for extended high-heat runs.

Gas valve enables fingertip flow adjustment

The integrated gas valve lets the operator start and stop shielding gas without a foot pedal or remote control. This simplifies setup for field repairs and touch-up work where a separate gas console is impractical. No additional accessories or software are bundled with the torch body.

Questions about this item

What power source output and cooling setup does the WP-R17FV torch body require to operate at its 150 A maximum current?

Connect the torch body to a TIG power source capable of delivering up to 150 A and provide compressed shielding gas through the built-in gas valve; the unit is air-cooled so no external water cooler is needed.

Will the A-150FVRH torch body accept the collets and nozzles I already use with older 150 A air-cooled TIG torches?

The torch body uses the A-150 series front-end consumables, so existing 0.02 in to 1/8 in collets, collet bodies and nozzles for that series will fit without modification.

After installation, how can I verify the torch body is functioning correctly at its rated 60 % duty cycle?

Set the power source to 150 A, weld continuously for six minutes within a ten-minute period, and confirm the torch body remains cool enough to handle and that gas flows steadily through the integrated valve throughout the test.
