Taurus gas lens collet bodies replace the standard collet bodies enabling increased shielding gas coverage and reduced turbulence. Welding discontinuances associated with atmospheric contaminants are also reduced. Gas lens collet bodies are normally manufactured from a copper-brass alloy and equipped with stainless steel mesh screens. Larger gas lens bodies provide improved gas coverage when materials are welded that tend to react to atmospheric contaminants. On complex joints, larger gas lens bodies also allow greater tungsten stick-out to gain better visibility of the weld puddle or to increase access to the joint. Gas lens collet bodies enable higher quality welds, improved gas flow, lower gas consumption and optimal weld puddle shielding
