How to Identify and Measure Fittings

Pipe size is an industry designation, not the actual size. View information about how to measure threaded and unthreaded pipe and pipe fittings.

Welding Cable Connectors

Deliver power to welding cable. These connectors withstand the high temperatures and high current found in welding applications.

Welding Cable Connector Sets

Each set includes one male plug and one female socket that withstands the high temperatures and high current found in welding applications.

Screw-Down Welding Lugs

Tighten the screw with a ¼" hex key wrench for a more secure connection than Hammer-On Welding Lugs.

Lug Covers

Prevent accidental contact with other connections.

Grounding Clamps for Welding

Designed specifically for use with welding circuits.

Compressed Gas Hose Fittings

Nuts for Barbed Hose Fittings for Compressed Gas

Also known as CGA nuts, these are designed for low-pressure welding applications downstream of your pressure regulator. Attach them to barbed hose fittings for compressed gas to make a threaded connection to torches or pressure regulators.

Threaded Hose-to-Propane-Tank
Adapters for Compressed Gas

These CGA adapters have a male threaded end that connects to a propane tank and a male threaded end that connects to welding hose.

Barbed Hose Fittings for Compressed Gas

Commonly used in low-pressure welding applications, these fittings connect downstream of your pressure regulator. Slide the barbed end into hose and secure with a crimp-on hose ferrule.

Threaded Hose Fittings for Compressed Gas

Use these CGA fittings to connect welding hose to pressure regulators and torches.

Hose Crimping Tool and Fitting
Sets for Compressed Gas

Sets contain a crimping tool and a variety of CGA fittings, nuts, and ferrules so you can connect pressure regulators, torches, and other components of your welding system.

Threaded Hose-to-Propane-Torch
Adapters for Compressed Gas

These CGA adapters allow you to connect a hose to a propane torch.

Quick-Disconnect Hose Couplings for Compressed Gas

These couplings consist of a plug and socket that connect and disconnect quickly. Use them if you need to frequently link and unlink welding hoses, torches, and regulators. They are also known as CGA couplings.

Nuts for High-Pressure Nipples for Compressed Gas

These nuts attach to high-pressure nipples for compressed gas so you can connect your tank to the inlet of a pressure regulator.

High-Pressure Nipples for Compressed Gas

Commonly used in high-pressure welding applications, these nipples connect your tank to the inlet of a pressure regulator. One side has a threaded pipe end and the other side has a rounded end that sits inside a threaded nut to make a threaded connection.

High-Pressure Threaded Fittings for Compressed Gas

Designed to handle high-pressure welding applications, these CGA fittings are commonly used to connect pressure regulators to compressed gas tanks or cylinders.
