The 

EASTWOOD ELITE TIG TORCH WATER COOLER

 has been specifically designed from the ground 

up to add Water Cooled Torch functionality to Eastwood TIG Welders when combined with the #55253 
Eastwood WP18F or #55254 Eastwood WP20F Water Cooled TIG Torches (not included). This ex-
clusive design drops torch temperatures over 100°F and allows for longer welds to be accomplished 
without over heating the torch, or the users hand. The Stainless Steel Reservoir and Heavy Duty Pump 
will provide years of trouble free service and performance. Rated for up to 250 Amps, this cooler is 
compatible with Eastwood Welders: #20565,#20566,#20589 and #54500. It is also compatible with 
any other TIG welder that has a M16X1.5 TIG Torch connection, and a 10-25 Dinse Stick Connection.
