    Default CK 200 Torch to 250EX with Photos and Part #'s

    Here is a list of part #'s along with photos to adapt a CK 200 torch to a Everlast 250EX with a Powercool W300 water cooler. All parts were purchased through Jim Watson over at http://www.arc-zone.com/

    Torch used was CK 200 Flex Neck
    Part# CK-225SF FX 250A Water Cooled Flex Head Torch Package With 25' (7.6m) Super Flex Cables.

    Soft Leather Cover for torch leads
    Part# CK-225HCLV
    Leather Cable Cover w/ Velcro. 23' (7.0m) x 3-3/4" (95.2mm). Durable, Flame Resistant, Light Weight & Abrasion Resistant. For 9 & 20 Series Torches.

    Photo showing torch, leather cover, and how flexible the lead is.


    Photo comparing the CK 200 to the stock Everlast torch.


    Dinse Connector: The rubber cover had to be slightly trimmed for the dinse to fully seat into the Everlast machine (1/4" or so), because of the lip on the machine where the connector plugs in. Took about 2 mins, with a razor blade. This is a Miller style connector. According to Jim, a Lincoln style will plug in without any mods. No big deal either way.

    Part# Q5W Large Male Water-Cooled Connector -- International Dinse Style with
    Adjustable "Red" Water Return Hose. For TIG Power Cables with 7/8" x 14 Left Hand Threads.


    Water and gas connectors:
    Torch comes with two 5/8" male LH thread water connectors, and a 5/8" male RH gas connector already factory installed.

    Water:
    I had Arczone make me a 12" extension hose for the water outlet on the dinse connector, to the water input on the cooler to make it long enough. I have my welder and cooler on a Everlast cart. (mine is 12" of hose plus fittings)

    Coupler to fit 5/8" male LH water connector on dinse hose.
    Part# WES-AW-431 (11N18)
