17 July 2025Perfect, lightweight torch, flexible head is so useful. lovely product well made, highly recommended.
-
28 April 2025Good little torch to get in tight spaces
-
10 March 2025I use this product on ally, stainless and mild steel. Well built compact torch for the lower amp work in confined spaces. Great quality product
-
27 December 2024Just a bit smaller than the one that was standard, ideal for light work or confined spaces
-
15 December 2024R-Tech outstanding quality
-
30 November 2024I haven't got round to using the smaller torch but it looks well made
-
28 November 2024Bought to go with the TIG makes smaller jobs easier as you get to see more of the job.
-
26 November 2024Quick delivery and wrapped well . Easy to fit and worked as it should .
-
07 October 2024Bought this as an alternative to my W26 torch, for work on 0.8mm steel and 1mm aluminium. Noticably smaller in size, much lighter and with a more flexble hose making it easier to handle. Build quality seems identical to the W26 which has given good service so hopefully it will last. No doubt the 'pro' grade torches are better yet, but for this amateur it's more than sufficient.
-
17 August 2024Very nice small torch head.
-
07 August 20241. Race car parts fabrication 2. Other like colleagues 3. Excellent value for money

-
27 April 2024I only have small hands, so with gloves on I am at the limit using this torch, I have bought a smaller unit because of this.
-
14 April 2024Not in use yet.
-
09 April 2024easy to fit and nice to use
-
02 April 2024used for thin wall stainless butt welds, sheet metal works. This is a good quality torch
-
29 March 2024Good welding torch. Recommended
-
22 January 2024I was hopeing the torch itself was smaller than my 17, i know that a WP9 refers to the internal bore size for the diffuser etc but was also hopeing that the torch would be lighter and smaller like the miller range of torches.
-
23 December 2023Nice torch for smaller jobs where I don’t need the capacity of my WP26 torch.
-
23 November 2023Very good product Would maybe point out to inexperienced people the current capacity of the torch as I only found out from someone else
-
26 September 2023Only used it once but very happy so far
-
13 September 2023Great
-
27 June 2023I ordered a wp9 torch for some delicate welds that have restricted access. I returned the torch because it was no where near the size of a wp9, the body was exactly the same size as the wp17 torch I received with my 210ext when I purchased it.
-
08 March 2023Waiting to use
-
25 February 2023New torch not used yet but great model and very flexible.
-
29 January 2023I opted for this torch as it wasn't included in the deal. As my main material requirement is mid way for the capability of the machine I thought that the WP9 would be a good choice for size and required amperage required. The torch came with a small accessory kit to get it working, cups, collets and tungsten's. I found the torch to be great for the smaller jobs but still quite weighty when trying to keep a good steady torch for AC welding which leads to the inevitable 'Dip' into the pool destroying the electrode. This said with some practice you can maintain a reasonable arc at higher amperages but I still struggle on the low amperage side and thinner materials. I feel that a CK9 switchless torch will be of more help in this area but the WP9 will be a mainstay torch for a good few jobs. I believe the saying is 'Each to their own' Quality is good with a sturdy feel but as this has had little use so far I couldn't comment on durability though I suspect that fi used clumsily i.e. dropped to the floor the weight will cause damage to the head and especially the cup, this said those item are fair game for normal use anyway. My observation would be when using 'Pyrex' cups you need to be aware of this weight as it may result in a few more shopping trips? I would like to say I'd recommend this torch however I currently don't have a CP9 to compare it to so I'd have to sit on the fence here. In general though, I would definitely recommend buying a smaller torch for your welder to take advantage of the full range of capability, you'd be foolish not to.
-
27 December 2022Good quality, not yet used but broadens the usefulness of the TIG welder.
-
20 December 2022In retrospect I'm not sure I really needed the smaller torch at this stage but it all works as it should and it should be easier to use it tight jobs.
-
16 December 2022Using this for work on smaller workpieces, excellent quality, very happy
-
03 December 2022Bought this for lower Amp jobs where more control required and to help improve my technique. Very happy that I did.

-
11 January 2022Having read extensively what type of torch suits what purpose i chose to purchase a smaller torch as much of what I planned to do would not require a full 200 amps. The smaller size of this torch makes it perfect for my sub 100 amp welding needs.
-
06 January 2022used for welding intricate motorcycle parts. other people I know who use this type of equipment. the quality is good.

27 September 2021I use this product for sheet metal welding, it’s lighter than my normal tig26 and more user friendly, I would recommend this product and I’m happy with it, quality is excellent too.
-
18 September 2021Nice and small, just what I needed, able to get into tight spots. My only wish is that it could do with a half length back cap (is there such a thing ?)
-
14 July 2021Very good.
-
12 July 2021Great addition to my welder. I mostly use this size of torch as I mostly work with thinner material and enjoy the smaller size.

-
17 April 2019Well made and meets the requirement..

09 April 2019Used for hobby stuff on cars, would recommend to other hobbyists. Finish, design & ergonomics of these torches better than the more expensive ones you sell - dont understand why - maybe not so durable for professional use ?

14 March 2019Great service
-
13 March 2019Very good quality.
-
18 February 2019Can't beat it for the price, and fits straight on there TIG sets with nothing else needed. Even comes with some collets, collet body’s and a few ceramics idea for the amps you’d be using this for. I added this to my order as an R-Tech WP26 came with the TIG set and that was a little big for some of the projects I’d be doing. It’s a must have sized torch for me and couldn’t be happier with it, nice, well made and fully cable covered. Basically everything you could want.
-
16 February 2019Only used it a few times and the handle seems a bit chunky but nice and light! Hopefully get used to it.
-
16 February 2019Finally got to use the new tig, works very well with all the functions. Great service from R-Tech
-
13 February 2019Really well built and perfect for those hard to reach places
-
07 January 2019I bought this as an alternative to the wp26 with a gas lens kit. I do a lot of thin sheet metal work and this is a superb tool, light and great in tight spaces.

02 January 2019Small, flexible and easy to use.
