Pyrex Cups

[doubleboost]

Been looking at some "pyrex tig cups"
They would be great for filming welds
Any one got a supplier at sensible cost

I think langy does them at decent rates db. @Tom Orrow L - you got some recently didn't you mate?

 

[Jim Davey]

I don't think anyone does them at prices that won't upset a northerner but they are good and they withstand more heat than a conventional pink ceramic so as long as you don't smash them by dangling the torch precariously on the edge of a table they do last well.

Yeah, I got some from langy which i've now burned through the cups :[
Found them quite useful not only for the increased visibility of the pool but also allows you to turn your gas down whilst you get the same coverage.

They'll start becoming more and more available on the UK marketing in the coming months I guarantee it

 

[Jim Davey]

What torch is it for DB?

And are you after the gas saver gauze bits too?

 

[Richard.]

The furwick #8 ones are half reasonable price and fit onto conventional lens. Better than ck Imo as they are a smaller set up and 1 lens type for clear and ceramics

 

[Richard.]

I have a couple of the pro#8cups they are great. They just fit straight on to your lenses. No messing about. https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&s...751545&usg=AFQjCNHADYQr6ClCpOf1J-SaePnF-n5Chw

They are for a "weldcraft WP20" (water cooled WP 9 )
I have the gas lens kits
All I need is the cup

 

[Jim Davey]

Will do you some prices Monday.

I get mine from West Country Welding, they're the UK stockist for Mike Furick's cups & Diffusers. The No.8 is a nice little tool, my #12 FUPA cup should be here tomorrow or monday i will do a little review at some point. I have bought it purposefully for stainless exhausts and titanium roses.

I see Richard. has already provided a link to them, good work.

@Jim Davey , if at all possible, I'd like to pick up the tab for the bits @doubleboost needs.
I owe him a favour so if everyone is happy with it, send him the bits he needs and email the bill to me. You probably have my work email address, if not we can PM.

Thanks for that

 

[Richard.]

Thanks for that

That'll be a new ewm on the cards then DB. You "need" one of those right

Cups turned up yesterday. Insane coverage even at 6lpm. Silver welds on titanium (just a few millimeters no filler mind) at 9lpm.

Big thanks to west country welding who got them sent out within a day

 

[Brad93]

Pictures of said titanium butt this is 0.7mm Ti6Al4V. 8LPM.
Torch and gas lens is CK, HFT Tungsten, Pyrex cup is a MIke Furick FUPA #12.

Slightly grainy but to be expected as the backside wasn't purged.

Pyrex cups starts at 3.15
