Compatible Torch Models
The Linde Stubby Nozzle Insulator fits a wide range of TIG torch bodies including the 17, 18 and 26 series. It works with standard, flexible and valve-equipped variants from several manufacturers. The gasket suits both air-cooled and water-cooled configurations listed in the compatibility data. Welders using unlisted torch models should verify fitment before ordering.
Pack Quantity and Application Limits
Each package contains two insulators, providing a spare for regular maintenance intervals. The stubby profile is designed for confined joint access where standard-length nozzles cannot reach. It is not intended for high-amperage applications that exceed the thermal rating of the compatible torch bodies. Users requiring extended reach or heavier-duty insulation will need a different nozzle geometry.
Ready-to-Use Spare Parts
The two-piece pack allows immediate replacement of a worn or damaged gasket without waiting for a separate order. No additional tools or adhesives are required for installation on the listed torch models. Having a spare on hand reduces downtime during production welding. The parts arrive new and ready for service in compatible torch assemblies.

Questions about this item
Will the 18CG20 stubby nozzle insulator fit my WP-17 and WP-26 TIG torches?
Yes, the insulator is compatible with WP-17, WP-17F, WP-17V, WP-26, WP-26F and WP-26V series torches, plus the HW-17, HW-26, PTA-17 and PTA-26 models listed.
How can I confirm the insulator is seated correctly after installation?
The insulator should sit flush inside the nozzle with no visible gap; a proper fit lets the collet and tungsten seat without wobble when the back-cap is tightened.
Does the pack of two include collets or nozzles, or just the insulators?
The package contains two 18CG20 stubby nozzle insulators only; collets, nozzles and back-caps must be purchased separately.
