Micro TIG (Pulse-Arc) Grounding Leads

Grounding Leads for Orion Micro TIG (Pulse-Arc) Welders are used for grounding your workpiece in order to perform your micro TIG (Pulse Arc) welds. The Orion Micro TIG (Pulse-Arc) systems come standard with the two "Orion Alligator Clips" that are connected to 3' long leads. The additional options found here are upgrades that can help with micro welding applications that require a different clip than the standard alligator clip provided with your Orion Micro TIG (Pulse-Arc) Welder. For most micro welding tasks, the alligator clips that ship with your Orion micro welder are sufficient. For other work pieces, the alligator clips may be too large or bulky. See if these other grounding attachments will do the job: Orion Alligator Clips - Banana Connector - 3' Lead - 18 AWG cables (2 count) These come standard with all pulse arc welding systems. Great for a replacement of your existing clips, or for use creating your own custom attachments. Orion Tack Alligator Clips - Spade Connector - 3' Lead - 10 AWG cables (2 count) Set (2) of Alligator clips with thicker wire gauge(10Awg) used with Orion systems that offer Tacking functions. Used in a resistance weld configuration to make a small tack weld prior to welding. Cannot be used in the Arc setting or can cause damage to welding system. Attaches via spade connection. Orion Tack+ Alligator Clips - Spade Connector - 6' Lead - 10 AWG cables (2 count) Similar to the Orion Tack Alligator clips but longer( 6ft instead of 3ft). For use with Tack function on Orion welding systems. Larger gauge wire allows for more current to flow to the weld site allowing for stronger tack and larger materials to be used. Not for use in Pulse arc welding mode. Orion Precision Clip - Banana Connector - 3' Lead - 18 AWG cables (1 count) The smallest and most precise alligator clip available. Ideal for small delicate parts and pieces. Prevents damage or scratching of pieces due to small smooth arms on the clip. Orion Crosslock Tweezer - Banana Connector - 3' Lead - 18 AWG cables (1 count) AKA Cross Lock A simple tweezer that opens when pressed and holds pressure on your part when released. Ideal for holding small, precise parts without having to continue to apply pressure like in a standard tweezer. Orion Jump Ring Pliers - Banana Connector - 3' Lead - 18 AWG cables (1 count) Plier designed to hold and apply pressure into closing a jump ring. Each jaw has a small groove cut into it to center and hold the jump ring. When the jump ring is placed properly the pressure applied to the plier closes and apply pressure to joint creating the ideal conditions for welding the joint closed. Orion Third Hand - No Connector - 3' Lead - 18 AWG cables (1 count) Third hand clamping system helps to hold intricate pieces during setup for welding. No grounding wire is included, but an alligator clamp can be attached to make the 3rd hand grounded. Orion Welding Plane - Banana Connector - 3' Lead - 18 AWG cables (1 count) A small plastic circle with a copper plate inside. Ideal for setting pieces on the copper to provide a grounding path. Pieces sit naturally but are grounded. Orion Plier Large Needle Nosed - Banana Connector - 3' Lead - 18 AWG cables (1 count) Large, grounded plier for use with thick materials, or when higher clamping forces will be ideal. Ring Set Tweezer - Banana Connector - 3' Lead - 18 AWG cables (1 count) A cross lock tweezer designed with small curves in the end to hook the inside of a ring and hold it steady. Ideal with working with a ring as the tweezer centers, hold, and grounds the ring without any damage to the ring, while still giving access to entire outside of the ring *Note about Tariffs (Updated May 1, 2025) Sunstone is a home-grown, made-in-USA company. Most of our welders are engineered and built by skilled American workers who take pride crafting high-precision, highly robust welders. During manufacturing, Sunstone uses parts and materials sourced from U.S. companies whenever possible. In some instances, parts and materials may be sourced from outside the U.S. due to availability and cost. Unavoidably, recent tariffs have increased the cost of parts and materials. To offset the increased cost in manufacturing, beginning May 1, 2025 Sunstone is adding a modest surcharge to affected products. The surcharge for this product is 2.5 and has already been added in to the purchase price. We will continue to monitor tariff costs and will happily adjust these down or eliminate them all together if possible.
