Furick Ally 5 clear Cup for TIG Welding Aluminum

click here to shop for a furick ally 5 cup on my store.

I have kits to fit your torch no matter if you have a

9, 20, or 2 series torch

or a

17, 18, 26 3 series torch

Furick #7 Pro Clear Cup

the video above shows a better way to get better at tig welding by alternating beads on steel and aluminum plate.

There is something about switch from aluminum to steel every bead or two that makes you pay closer attention to how the puddle responds and when you can learn to read the puddle, the learning curve to tig welding gets much shorter.

The Furick #7 Pro Clear cups really lights things up in this video and can do the same for you if you are having any issues seeing the puddle and where you are going when the hood drops.

The video below shows a simple corner joint on .125" thick aluminum using a furick #7 pro cup on a 17 air cooled torch.

Furick #8 pro Clear cup

The video below shows how well a furick 8 pro clear cup lights up the weld area and improves visibility.

(my second favorite cup for this joint would probably be a #6 gas lens with a pink cup but the clear cup makes everything way easier to see for me)

Furick Jazzy#10 Clear and Ceramic

the Jazzy 10 clear and ceramic cups are designed for DC welding of carbon steel, stainless, inconel, hastelloy, titanium, and cobalt alloys.

The Furick 12 cups allow for a really long electrode extension while providing great gas shielding on carbon and tool steels, 4130 chromoly, stainless steels of all grades, nickel alloys like inconel and hastelloy, titanium, and cobalt alloys

Why Furick Cups?

Way back around 2007 I ran the training and certification program for Delta TechOps and I ordered some flood TIG cups from a major TIG torch manufacturer. I won't mention them by name but the cups had champagne in the name and the flood cup was around a size 16.

I ordered several of these cups at around 30 dollars per cup.

The first one I tried didn't work at all right out of the package. The gas flow and coverage was so poor that the tungsten got all black even with a really short stickout and at the recommended argon flow rates.

The second and third did the same. 

I thought to myself, " do they even test these things"?

Don't they have a real welder on staff that could have told them these cups didn't work?

Because if they did, they never would have let them go to market.

Michael Furick is a welder and he tests his cups.

Michael Furick is also a motorsports fabricator and he understands what us real welders need.
