Adapt Super-Flex hose to TIG welder with European style, M16x1.5 connection.

If you have a TIG welder with a European style hose and M16x1.5 connector, this easy to make adapter will open up your options for 17 series hoses. The barbed adapters used in this video were found on Amazon.
Search for Joywayus-Fitting-Adapter 3/8 barb by M16x1.5.

FYI - BIG thank you again! I bought the two Amazon M16x1.5 x hose barb and it only took about 20-30 minutes start to finish. They work fantastic and your engineering saved me a ton of time and money. I installed a 25' CK SuperFlex so I can work on my boat without having to move anything. There is a site that sells these but you wind up paying $55/ with delivery. 👍🤠👍

Nicely done and informative tutorial

[@dougekren6495]

The ideas are endless, very many other applications. Thanks

[@budmanzoom4441]

Thank you!! I am going to do this for my Eastwood TIG welder so I can put the CK SuperFlex power/gas cable on it.

I looked up a couple Eastwood examples and it does look like the same connection. Search Amazon for Joywayus Fitting Adapter M16×1-5 Female, and it should return the one I used. Sold in pairs. Good luck and Thanks!

Do ya think this will work for a yes welder tig 250 p

[@callmemike6171]

The blue color TIG-250P appears to have the same M16x1.5 connection, so it should work fine. Keep in mind, if you are not running a foot pedal, you will also have to mount a switch to the torch.

@@callmemike6171 I just found they out. I ended up useing a power block it fit nicely. I guess I’m going to be in the market for a hand control. Any ideas?

Assuming you have a 5-pin connector, Eastwood has a replacement for $21.99. Hopefully, with the same thread and pinout. www.amazon.com/Eastwood-Welder-Trigger-Replacement-Connection/dp/B07PWG726F
