    The XC1000 is an improved version of the popular XC600 water cooler with a higher cooling capacity. The compact footprint makes these ideal for fitting onto the bottle carrier at the back of a power source or free standing. The Simaco rotary pump features a brass body and impeller to give a long lifespan. Four threaded mounts are provided underneath for fixing down if required. This unit is suitable for most welding applications up to 600A.

    Features

    • British designed & made.
    • Increased cooling capacity of 1000W.
    • Low power consumption of 190-220W allows direct connection onto many machine auxiliary supplies.
    • Very small footprint of 210mm x 247mm with fixing points underneath to allow easy mounting onto bottle trays etc.
    • Built in motor protection to prevent burnout if pump is blocked or stalled for any reason with automatic reset.

    TIG Accessories FAQs

    Straight answers to the questions people ask most when choosing and using accessories for TIG welding.

    What accessories might I need for TIG welding?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    Beyond the machine, torch and consumables, a range of extras can make TIG welding easier or give better results. Common ones include water coolers for water-cooled torches, trailing shields and purge chambers for better gas protection, purging aids such as flux and tape for stainless steel, gauges for setting tungsten stick-out and checking gas flow, adaptors and quick connectors for gas and water, arc starters that add features to simple machines, and trolleys to carry the equipment.

    What you need depends on your machine, your torch and the metals you weld.

    Do I need a water cooler, and what size?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    You need one if you use a water-cooled torch, which is the usual choice for higher currents and long, continuous welding. The cooler circulates coolant through the torch and cable, keeping them cool and allowing a lighter, slimmer cable than an air-cooled torch of the same rating.

    Check that the cooler suits your torch and your power supply: its voltage, its water connections, and its capacity to cool at the heat your torch produces. Some machines and trolleys have a cooler built in or a place to mount one.

    What is a trailing shield and when do I need one?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    A trailing shield is an attachment that fits behind the torch cup and sends a stream of shielding gas over the weld after the torch has passed. Some metals, such as titanium and stainless steel, stay hot enough to oxidise as they cool, so the extra gas protects them while they cool down.

    It is most useful for reactive metals and for welds where discolouration is not acceptable. It must match your torch and be fitted so that it follows the weld evenly.

    What is a flexible purge chamber used for?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    It is a flexible enclosure that you fill with argon and weld inside, so the whole joint and the area round it sit in an inert atmosphere. It is used mainly for reactive metals like titanium, and for jobs where normal gas coverage cannot keep the hot metal clean as it cools.

    You place the work in the chamber, purge it until the oxygen level is low enough, and then weld through the sleeves or openings. Follow the maker's instructions, and make sure that any enclosed space is properly ventilated, since argon displaces air.
