Fupa12 glass or Fupa12 ceramic? Why not to take both? The sure thing neither of them will disappoint you!
This hybrid kit comes with 1 ceramic cup and 1 glass cup, 4 o-rings for the glass version and 1 spare diffuser.
The glass version it is hand made in the USA of Borosilicate laboratory grade glass. Due to the nature of the Glass “walking the cup “ is not suggested and be careful not to drop or hit the cup against hard objects.
The ceramic version it performs identical to the original glass version but has the added strength ceramic cups bring. It does not require o-rings.
Fupa12 uses anywhere from 20-30+ CFH of Argon flow and carries a 180amp rating on constant amperage. It can go higher if using pulse settings.
Fupa12 is recommended for Mild steel, Stainless steel, Chromoly, Titanium, Inconel and other space grade alloys. It works best on thinner / smaller applications such as header tubes and chassis tubing.
It is recommended you keep the diffuser the shape it comes and you remove and reinstall if it gets out of shape. Also it is recommended with all the big diffuser cups that the user start off on low amps to stabilize the arc as to make sure you will not arc off diffuser. If diffuser arcing occurs you will have to clean/regrind the tungsten. You will not hurt the diffuser on low amps but with high amps you can deteriorate the diffuser.
