Dinse flow-thru female

admin

Anybody know a source for a Large Dinse Female flow-thru connector?  It needs the threaded gas fitting on the backside.  I'm wanting to make an extension for an air cooled tig torch.  I can find the male connector at just about any place.  I can find female connectors, but none of them are flow-thru. The backside has a screw terminals for stranded copper lead (not one piece style)Basically I want.... male flow-thru ---> one piece tig lead ---> female flow-thruBTW last time I tried to special order anything via the LWS I waited two weeks just to have them totally forget I'd ordered anything.Dynasty200DX w/coolmate1MM210MM VintageESAB miniarc161ltsLincoln AC225Victor O/A, Smith AW1ACutmaster 81IR 2475N7.5FPRage3Jancy USA1019" SBAEAD-200LE
Reply:This is the only thing I can think of at the moment.  Same Dinse connector for the troch on my 180SD and similar machines.http://miller4less.com/advanced_sear...02813&x=8&y=10MM200 w/Spoolmatic 1Syncrowave 180SDBobcat 225G Plus - LP/NGMUTT Suitcase WirefeederWC-1S/Spoolmatic 1HF-251D-1PakMaster 100XL '68 Red Face Code #6633 projectStar Jet 21-110Save Second Base!

Reply:Thanks for the replys and ideas.Duaneb55, That one is a panel mount, right?  It would probably work, but I'd have to make a housing to cover the electrical parts.  Not sure it has matching connections to my hose/lead.CarmenElectrode, I looked through arc-zone's website and they don't carry what I'm looking for.7A749,  My hose ends look identical to yours.  I'll be getting one of those gas hose connectors and a solid female dinse, and I'll braze it together.  I could probably cut off, drill, and tap the backside of the solid female dinse, but I doubt I could get the bevel just right at the bottom to get a gas tight seal.  Hopefully I can get the whole thing to fit within the existing plastic cover.It's surprising nobody makes this connector, or nobody makes a flow-thru extension.  I'm sure I'm not the only one who wants a short lead for 'sit down' work and a long lead otherwise, but doesn't want to buy two torches.The machine is an econotig.  I'm thinking to upgrading to either a dynasty 200 or a syncro 250 (can't decide between lightweight, portability and fancy options, or 100 extra amps).  Since you mentioned the dynasty isn't flow-thru maybe I should rethink building this extension.  If I get the syncro 250 I'll probably be moving to a water cooled torch and I wouldn't use the extension either.  I've got more questions than when I started.

Reply:7A749, I just looked more closely at your last picture.  "Maximum.....capacities must be reduced approximately 20% because of the added length of power cable....reduced cooling efficiency".  I could see reduced capacity from having more voltage drop on a longer lead, but I don't see the loss of cooling capacity.  Sure, it'll be harder to push the argon through a longer hose, but I'm just going to bump up the regulator to get the same reading on the flow meter.  Maybe this only applies to water cooling?!?!Dynasty200DX w/coolmate1MM210MM VintageESAB miniarc161ltsLincoln AC225Victor O/A, Smith AW1ACutmaster 81IR 2475N7.5FPRage3Jancy USA1019" SBAEAD-200LE
Reply:I'm only adding 25' to my existing torch lead of 12'.Dynasty200DX w/coolmate1MM210MM VintageESAB miniarc161ltsLincoln AC225Victor O/A, Smith AW1ACutmaster 81IR 2475N7.5FPRage3Jancy USA1019" SBAEAD-200LE
