Ticon Industries Tig Aesthetics 2in Tube Silicone Purge Plug - 2-2.2in Fitment

This is the Ticon Industries Silicone Purge Plug, designed to fit tubing with an outer diameter between 2 and 2.2 inches. It's a key piece of equipment if you're doing TIG welding on exhaust systems or other custom fabrication projects where maintaining a clean, inert atmosphere inside the pipe is critical for a strong, clean weld. Without proper purging, you can get oxidation and porosity on the inside of your welds, which weakens them and looks rough.

This plug is made from high-temperature silicone, so it can handle the heat generated during the welding process. It's designed to create a tight seal, preventing your argon or other shielding gas from escaping. This ensures that the entire inside of the tube is bathed in the inert gas, protecting the molten weld pool from atmospheric contaminants. It's a simple but effective tool that makes a big difference in the quality of your TIG welds on tubing.
