Size guide

The Button Clip GTAW comes in three sizes. Pick the one that matches your TIG torch handle’s outer diameter, not the brand or part number — torches with the same handle OD use the same clip size regardless of who made them.

Small

0.50" – 0.60"

Series 9 / WP-9, CK 9, compact pencil torches

Medium

0.65" – 0.75"

Series 17 / WP-17, PTW-17, CK 17, Fronius TTG — the most common production torch

Large

0.78" – 0.90"

Series 26 / WP-26, Magnum PRO-26, CK 26, Fronius TTW

How to measure your torch handle

  1. Hold a pair of calipers across the torch handle just behind the cup (not across the cup itself, and not on the cable boot).
  2. Read the outer diameter (OD) measurement.
  3. Match the measurement to the Small, Medium, or Large bucket above.
  4. If you don’t have calipers, find your torch model in the chart below — most production torches fall cleanly into one bucket.

These are nominal values from manufacturer torch lines. Some specific revisions vary slightly — when in doubt, measure your handle OD with calipers and use the Small / Medium / Large ranges above.
