If you need a complete TIG torch setup with a longer lead, the Weldtec WT-17-25RT is a ready-to-run torch kit built around a WP-17 style torch and a 25 ft cable. This is the kind of kit that makes sense for shop work where you want reach around fixtures, tables, or larger assemblies without constantly repositioning the machine. Before ordering, confirm connector style and torch rating match your power source and application.
