Button Clip GTAW
Adjustable, rotating retention clip for TIG torch HF start button switches. Holds your remote button firmly without crushing the internal PCB the way tape and zip ties do.

Engineered to grip the body, not the circuit
The Button Clip GTAW snaps onto your TIG torch handle and locks your remote HF start button switch in place — while still allowing full 360° rotation so you can position it exactly where your thumb naturally falls. Engineered to grip the switch at its outer body geometry without transferring compressive force to the internal circuit board, so your switch lasts the way it was designed to.
Most welders mount their remote button with electrical tape or zip ties because there's been no better option — until now. Both methods apply constant compressive force directly to the switch housing. That pressure transfers inward to the printed circuit board and the internal momentary switch mechanism, accelerating wear and causing premature electrical failure. The Button Clip GTAW was engineered specifically to eliminate this failure mode by holding the switch securely at its outer body geometry without transmitting stress to the internals.
Features
- Secure retention — holds your HF start button firmly; won't slip during welding
- 360° rotational adjustment — position the button anywhere around the handle
- Protects internal switch components — grips at the external contact points only
- Tool-free installation — clips directly onto your existing torch handle
- Multiple sizes available — fits a wide range of torch handle diameters
- Compatible with HF start systems on all major TIG machines
- Built for the shop — durable construction rated for heat, spatter, and daily pro use

Install in under a minute
Tool-free clip-on installation onto your existing torch handle. Set it where your thumb naturally falls. Re-rotate at any time for out-of-position work. Full step-by-step photos and tuning tips on the install instructions page.
Built for the shop
Durable construction rated for the heat, spatter, and daily abuse a production TIG torch sees. Designed by a working welder, for working welders. Read the founder story on the about page.
Ideal for
Professional welders, fabrication shops, aerospace and pipe welding applications, and anyone who uses a remote HF start button on their TIG torch and wants a more ergonomic, reliable, and component-safe way to mount it. If you've replaced a switch in the last six months because the internals failed, this is the fix.
