The new 8XT TIG torch line from Translas offers high comfort due to its ultra-ergonomic design. The 8XT handle is packed with ergonomic features to provide the best comfort for the hand of the welder and to eliminate any tension on the wrist and fingers.

 

Ergonomic Handle

The bottom cap has a unique ergonomic bump that lies perfectly on the curve between the thumb and index finger. Soft grip, made of 2k soft TPE rubber, on the bottom cap give great stability while holding the torch in any positon. The front cap is provided with extra grip lines. It is also horizontally curved to make any pen grip feel as comfortable and stable as possible.

Comfortable Switch Module

Positioned at approximately -15 degrees, the switch module eliminates any tension in the fingers and minimizes the risk of RSI (cramps in the finger muscles) due to daily repetitive movements.

Rotatable Torch Body

To be able to reach difficult areas while welding, the torch body of the 8XT torches can be rotated to 45 degrees both left and right. The adapter at the front cap assures the torch body remains fixed in any of the three possible positions and there is no place for wiggling.

Perfect machine contact

The PCB module is fixed and completely covered by a protection plate. The protection plate keeps the PCB safe from HF and dirt. Unique gold-plated spring contacts ensure perfect connection with the welding machine.

 

 

 

All in keeping with our motto:  BY WELDERS, FOR WELDERS.
